Abstract

900
In the 1960s and 1970s, the Kevin Roche John Dinkeloo and Associates had a great repercussion in the international architecture scene. The three MoMA exhibitions the firm participated in, constituting the guiding thread of this article, attests to that. Through detailed analysis of these three shows I wish to demonstrate how important architecture exhibitions are as sources in research, representing, as they do, the times in which they were held, and serving as a thermometer of the discussions of the period. The objective here is to reconstruct the theoretical framework into which the museum exhibited the work of KRJDA, and the process of connecting the firm to the debates and professionals of the particular moments.
