- In the context of the exhibition The University Is Now on Air: Broadcasting Modern Architecture, the CCA presents twenty-four broadcasts from the course A305, History of Architecture and Design 1890-1939, by The Open University. To learn more about the project, visit www.cca.qc.ca/....
In television broadcast 4, Tim Benton compares the industrial buildings by Peter Behrens for the AEG
(General Electrical Company of Germany) in Berlin with the almost exactly contemporaneous Fagus shoe-last factory which Walter Gropius designed for Karl Benscheidt, in Alfeld-an-der-Leine, both built just before the First World War. […] The Fagus factory is often referred to as the first really ‘modern’ building, while the AEG buildings, at first sight, appear to have a markedly classical aesthetic.
Written by Tim Benton, directed by Nick Levinson, produced the BBC/Open University, aired 15 March 1975 on BBC2.
Awesome program. Dig the coolness of the presenter as well. Gold!
More of these programmes please!
The BBC 2 Open University programming was fantastic. I watched these as a child growing up.

So very well explained! I'm writing an essay about these two buildings and this helps me so much!
Fantastic! So glad you posted this... So glad I "found" it!
