Deux ans après la mise en orbite du Spoutnik (1957), Nixon et Krouchtchev inaugurent l'Exposition nationale américaine à Moscou. Auprès de la maison "Sliptnik" exposant les articles et les valeurs de la société de consommation "à l'américaine", les designers Charles et Ray Eames sont chargés d'offrir un aperçu flatteur des USA. En un "blitz" de 12 minutes projetés sur 7 rétroviseurs géants abrités sous un dôme géodésique doré de Buckminster Fuller, cette pacifique guerre-éclair consiste à "cerner par les images" des Soviétiques ébahis. Prologue au pop art américain, le succès est total et immédiat. Les USA lancent le premier satellite de télécommunications Telstar et la mondovision en 1962. L'architecture de l'après-Spoutnik vient de naître...

Beatriz Colomina démontre que l'architecture moderne est inséparable de la guerre, en recyclant techniques et matériaux développés pour les militaires. Ainsi, à la fin de la 2de Guerre Mondiale, le Case Study House Program a pour objectif de concevoir et de construire des modèles de maisons individuelles économiques et fonctionnelles en utilisant dans la mesure du possible, de nombreux matériaux et techniques issus de la guerre. L'architecture domestique d'après-guerre devient l'expression du mode de vie américain -ses banlieues, ses cuisines équipées, ses ménagères manucurées - grâce aux médias qui véhiculent la propagande du modèle américain mais aussi le reflet des angoisses de la "guerre froide", avec ses abris et architectures souterraines. When American architects, designers, and cultural institutions converted wartime strategies to new ends, the aggressive promotion of postwar domestic bliss became another kind of weapon. In the years immediately following World War II, America embraced modern architecture—not as something imported from Europe, but as an entirely new mode of operation, with original and captivating designs made in the USA. In Domesticity at War, Beatriz Colomina shows how postwar American architecture adapted the techniques and materials that were developed for military applications to domestic use. Just as manufacturers were turning wartime industry to peacetime productivity—going from missiles to washing machines—American architects and cultural institutions were, in Buckminster Fuller's words, turning "weaponry into livingry."This new form of domesticity itself turned out to be a powerful weapon. Images of American domestic bliss—suburban homes, manicured lawns, kitchen accessories—went around the world as an effective propaganda campaign. Cold War anxieties were masked by endlessly repeated images of a picture-perfect domestic environment. Even the popular conception of the architect became domesticated, changing from that of an austere modernist to a plaid-shirt wearing homebody. Colomina examines, with interlocking case studies and an army of images, the embattled and obsessive domesticity of postwar America. She reports on, among other things, MOMA's exhibition of a Dymaxion Deployment Unit (DDU), a corrugated steel house suitable for use as a bomb shelter, barracks, or housing ; Charles and Ray Eames's vigorous domestic life and their idea of architecture as a flexible stage for the theatrical spectacle of everyday life ; and the American lawn as patriotic site and inalienable right. Domesticity at War itself has a distinctive architecture. Housed within the case are two units: one book of text, and one book of illustrations—most of them in color, including advertisements, newspaper and magazine articles, architectural photographs, and more.

X-Ray Architecture explores the enormous impact of medical discourse and imaging technologies on the formation, representation and reception of twentieth-century architecture. It challenges the normal understanding of modern architecture by proposing that it was shaped by the dominant medical obsession of its time : tuberculosis and its primary diagnostic tool, the X-ray. Modern architecture and the X-ray were born around the same time and evolved in parallel. While the X-ray exposed the inside of the body to the public eye, the modern building unveiled its interior, dramatically inverting the relationship between private and public. Architects presented their buildings as a kind of medical instrument for protecting and enhancing the body and psyche. Beatriz Colomina traces the psychopathologies of twentieth-century architecture - from the trauma of tuberculosis to more recent disorders such as burn-out syndrome and ADHD - and the huge transformations of privacy and publicity instigated by diagnostic tools from X-Rays to MRIs and beyond. She suggests that if we want to talk about the state of architecture today, we should look to the dominant obsessions with illness and the latest techniques of imaging the body - and ask what effects they have on the way we conceive architecture.
