DIRECTORS WHO EXPLORE THIS
Andrei Tarkovsky Soviet Union

His films depict decaying architectural spaces as metaphors for spiritual emptiness and the fragility of human consciousness within modernist structures.

 Michelangelo Antonioni Italy

He explores how modernist and urban architecture isolates individuals, treating buildings as characters that reveal psychological vulnerability and alienation.

 Béla Tarr Hungary

His monochromatic cinematography transforms crumbling industrial and residential architecture into dystopian landscapes that embody societal decay and human fragility.
