The lecture looks at the diverse lines of criticism that were levelled at the modern movement&#8217;s model of urbanism during the late 20th century. As the 21st century unfolds, this restless uncertainty shows no sign of resolution; indeed it has spread around the globe.<\/p>\n<p>The lecture concentrates on the experiments of the NATo group (Narrative Architecture Today), which combined filmic montage with London punk situationism to generate \u201cGamma City\u201d, and on Nigel Coates\u2019s more recent global projection of multitrack narratives, \u201cEcstacity\u201d.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Brian Hatton<\/strong> teaches history and theory of architecture at Liverpool John Moores University, the Architectural Association in London, and the University of Greenwich. A critic for many art and architecture journals, he has written studies of Dan Graham, Cedric Price, Zaha Hadid, Langlands &amp; Bell, among others. A collaborator with and writer on the\u00a0 NATo group in the mid\u201080s, he is now working with them on a retrospective exhibition and book of their work.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Architecture Open Lecture Series 2010 \/11 University of Greenwich School of Architecture &amp; Construction Mansion Site, Avery Hill Campus Bexley Road, Eltham, London SE9 2PQ Norbert Singer Lecture Theatre (M055) Wed 27 October 2010 18.30 Brian Hatton REVISING THE CITY: NATO &amp; ECSTACITY No field of architectural modernism has been so thoroughly revised as that [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":28,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[75],"class_list":["post-1104","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-open-lectures","tag-open-lectures"],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.gre.ac.uk\/architecture\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1104","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.gre.ac.uk\/architecture\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.gre.ac.uk\/architecture\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.gre.ac.uk\/architecture\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/28"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.gre.ac.uk\/architecture\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1104"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.gre.ac.uk\/architecture\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1104\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.gre.ac.uk\/architecture\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1104"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.gre.ac.uk\/architecture\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1104"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.gre.ac.uk\/architecture\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1104"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
