Deconstructivist Architecture @ MoMA (1988)

"The projects in this exhibition mark a different sensibility, one in which the dream of pure form has been disturbed. It is the ability to disturb our thinking about form that makes these projects deconstructive. The show examines an episode, a point of intersection between several architects where each constructs an unsettling building by exploiting the hidden potential of modernism."

– Phillip Johnson and Mark Wigley, Excerpts from Deconstructivist Architecture
