Art / architecture / aesthetic revival thread
...
Our mid size cities like Bradford used to be halfway nice places
as did our big cities
but we can't keep wasting money on larpy old fashioned buildings
get with the time
Please tell me that old building was bombed or damaged beyond repair for this to happen.

Look how well this thing blends into my city and enriches its skyline. This is the future.

cancer: the building
here have some gommie restructuring in belgrade
the building survived ww2 intact but it was opressing the proletariat too much so it had to be improved
braise marx :DDDDD

I'd support bombing it if someone wouldn't just build something worse.
Genuinely upsets me that I never got to experience the world as it was when people gave a damn.
Sod this hedonistic post modern nightmare.
There died a myriad,
And of the best, among them,
For an old bitch gone in the teeth,
For a botched civilization,
Charm, smiling at the good mouth,
Quick eyes gone under earth’s lid,
For two gross of broken statues,
For a few thousand battered books.
the things communists fucked up ..
it's threads like this that make me truly sad

communism lives to destroy western societies, what it's done to architecture is its greatest success

Imagine the pride of a simple Danish farmer witnessing his country grind Prussia to shit. Must've been a hell of a party Aquavit and Herring all around.
Don't hate what we have no so much that it takes away your desire to take what we had forward, and to make it new for the modern world.
I've been thinking a lot about this, and have started to somewhat argue against the pretentious tradcon who clutches his hands to his head whenever he hears an electronic instrument.
I think that those composers who make use of synthesisers (Isao Tomita, Wendy Carlos; Mike Oldfield, to an extent) aren't betraying the onward march of the Western mindset half as much as those who limit music in the Western tradition to stuffy old people in suits.

Is this architecture degenerate? Built after the the war, in 1948.
no, why would it be? looks nice
More Stalinism architecture from my town.
Last year I have been in New York, this dark brick building so cool. Too bad that Americans replace it with glass buildings.
Prague, thanks God not destroyed at the war.
The red star for example...
Well, it is not actually red, it is grey.
Gotta love the architecture the Russians shared with us.
wtf is wrong with Slavs?
...
Khrushev and Breznev thought that Stalin architecture is too bourgeoisie.
That's purge-worthy.
Why do leftists have a desire to destroy everything beautiful?
I really like renaissance paintings
>this place was destroyed during battle in manila
>did not restored after the war
>remember native indons was the one who built this place during spanish colonization
You will never see this beautiful architecture ever
We should've just capitulated like French and Czech did, maybe our cities would look more like this.
But no, our blind Polish pride made us fight to the last man until Warsaw and many other cities were degraded to rubble.

>Santiago "the Moor-slayer" at the top
There are still remains of the Spanish colonization at the philipines? It is safe to travel there?
