VOICED : En defensa de los edificios de vanguardia de Moscu

The video discusses the constructivist architectural style, exemplified by a 1920s telephone exchange in Moscow. It highlights the controversy over its demolition and the efforts to preserve such heritage. Constructivism, inspired by cubism, features geometric forms and communal spaces. Despite many examples being in poor condition, campaigns aim to protect this legacy, which marked Russia's leadership in architecture. The Shukhov Tower was saved by international outcry, but the telephone exchange faces an uncertain future.
