BOOK



"Gonçalo’s work asks for a redefinition of architecture - a new dynamic process oriented by a new poetic. Through Pask, Price and Frazer, he proposes a new intellectuality and new strategies of action.
I first became aware of Cedric Price’s Generator through an article of March 2003 by Gonçalo. I heard of his impactfull presentation about the Metabolists and MoMA’s 2002 The Changing of the Avantguard (which Gonçalo had visited in New York) at the Serralves Museum. In the last years, uring presentations at my school, I had deeper access to his topics, and I was happy when he accepted to publish this book and sent me the draft in 2006."
