Abstract
The projects and articles of Peter Eisenman – his texts – formulate
senses and definitions of what he calls “conceptual architecture”. “Conceptual
architecture” would enable projects in architecture that wouldn’t be imposed by a
“monocular subject” – a “subject” from a space in perspective. This research
discusses the importance of the “conceptual architecture” in the discourse of
architecture: it studies it’s potentials and possible subversions.
