Bunkers, Brutalism and Bloodymindedness: Concrete Poetry is part of a broader Open House Melbourne program called ’What’s the beef with Brutalism?’ – a series of screenings, talks and tours that consider people’s beef with Béton brut, explore the social significance of the style, and consider what is the new, new brutalism?
