The Modernist

52

Published by The Modernist Society, the small-format and currently square-shaped The Modernist (its shape changes regularly) explores 20th century architecture and design via quarterly, themed-issues. This is the Nuclear issue: ‘Although the power of atomic, and subsequently nuclear, energy only came of age halfway through the twentieth century, its invention and ominous presence dominated the second half of that century—both geopolitically and ideologically.’ Read about the power stations built to house the new energy systems, the planes designed to deliver atomic bombs, the town built for the workers at Chrenobyl and more. On the Podcast:Hear Eddy Rhead discuss the 40th issue of the magazine and their plans for the future.LISTEN NOW the-modernist.org
