    21 de marzo de 1948

    William J. R. Curtis es un historiador de la arquitectura cuya obra se ha centrado en la arquitectura del siglo XX. Sus escritos destacan por su compromiso con la ampliación del 'canon' tradicional para abarcar una gama más amplia de arquitectos a nivel mundial, ofreciendo una comprensión más inclusiva de la historia de la arquitectura. El enfoque de Curtis enfatiza una perspectiva global y los diálogos internacionales que dieron forma al diseño moderno. Su extensa investigación y análisis crítico contribuyen significativamente a una apreciación más profunda de los movimientos arquitectónicos contemporáneos.
