Este volumen reúne dos obras de Tom Wolfe que causaron gran controversia en su momento. En 'La palabra pintada', Wolfe describe la historia del arte moderno, afirmando que se ha convertido en una parodia de sí mismo, tan literario y académico como la pintura contra la que se rebeló. El arte moderno se puso de moda y los expertos cedieron su lugar a la alta sociedad y los críticos. En '¿Quién teme al Bauhaus feroz?', Wolfe analiza la arquitectura desde el fin de la Primera Guerra Mundial y la aspiración del Bauhaus de 'empezar de cero', terminando con la arquitectura 'burguesa' y soñando con un mundo riguroso y abstracto. Expulsados de Alemania por el nazismo, se refugian en Estados Unidos, donde se produce la paradoja de una obediencia atemorizada a los cánones de una arquitectura desnuda, fría y abstracta.
Thomas Kennerly Wolfe Jr. was an American author and journalist widely known for his association with New Journalism, a style of news writing and journalism developed in the 1960s and 1970s that incorporated literary techniques. Much of Wolfe's work is satirical and centers on the counterculture of the 1960s and issues related to class, social status, and the lifestyles of the economic and intellectual elites of New York City.
