Radio Free History E30: Raiders of the Lost Architecture

We finish our survey of 1930s art by looking at architecture. We look at the evolution of Modernist architecture, and we look at the ideological architecture of the Third Reich and the Soviet Union. We also take a detour to look at the 1937 Paris Expo. https://www.subscribestar.com/radio-free-history [https://www.subscribestar.com/radio-free-history] https://ko-fi.com/radiofreehistory [https://ko-fi.com/radiofreehistory]
