Francis Bacon, Triptych August 1972 Lebbeus Woods.
Architecture is war.
War is architecture. I am at war with my time, with history, with all authority that resides in fixed and frightened forms. These organisms will inhabit the scars of war like parasites, leave wounds open, courageously accept the pain of the present, the recent past, the dead. The forms he imagines are anything but attractive. Acceptance of the scar is an acceptance of existence.
