Description
Since 2017, Mark Durden and João Leal ( @durden_leal ) have been photographing European modernist architecture, and now they're launching three of their latest publications with Scopio Editions ( @scopioeditions ) designed by Pedro Leão Neto, Né Santelmo, and Artur Leão.As artists, not architects, Durden and Leal approach architecture from a unique, collaborative perspective. Their photography aims to capture the richness and multidimensional experience of architecture—bringing light, life, and humanism to modernist buildings often seen as static or lifeless.
Join us at Spazio Alva on Saturday, October 12, at 6:30 PM to discover more about their research!
