I stumbled across this interesting little tidbit about Bernard Rudofsky today from dpr-barcelona's blog:
Architecture, unlike chemistry, biology and other sciences, tolerates free and creative thinking; these characteristic are really present in Rudofskys ideals. He believed this cultural inertia had profoundly negative sociological and physical consequences, against modern forms of architectural education, Rudofsky advocated a return to spontaneity, play, and instinct. As a result, he devoted his life to exposing the West to foreign architectural paradigms, unfamiliar customs, and evolving attitudes about the body and fashion. Rudofsky used this photograph to show how modern shoes do not match the shape of the human foot.
