      OASE #108 More Than Meets the eye - Over- and underrated architecture

      Editors: David Peleman, Jantje Engels, Christophe Van Gerrewey

      “It is brilliant people say brilliant
      while it’s mere dilettantism
      What they touch becomes tasteless
      always the most obvious
      superficialities
      even the most exalted starts to stink”
      — Thomas Bernhard, Der Schein trügt, 1984
