[nb-NO]Description[nb-NO]
Deals with two distinct modes of representation; one historical, documentary, narrative; the other aesthetic and spatial. The historian strives to provide an account of the past that relates facts, events, reminiscences, scrupulously collected. The architecture aspires beyond its sheer functional obligations to produce an empathetic identification of something ineffable - an aesthetic experience comparable to that of the sublime.
