Teaching Art to Architects: A Manifesto

 
Art and architecture have drifted apart. 
Architecture education is contributing to the alienation between art and architecture.
The mainstream of architecture schools is drawn towards technology.
Architecture schools run after digitalization and sustainability, and planning.
Architecture is not here to serve.
It is here to change the world.
It is time to reconnect architecture with art and bring theory, politics and beauty into the curriculum.
