        Abstract
        This paper proposes a re-reading of Frampton’s essay ‘Towards A Critical Regionalism: Six Points for an Architecture of Resistance’ in relation to the role of history. For Frampton, the renewed interest in architecture history evident in the first international architecture exhibition of Venice (1980) represented a rejection of modernism’s commitment to both technological and social progress. Frampton’s objection to the exhibition’s deployment of visual signifiers of this history led him to reject history per se as a legitimate generator of architectural form. How are Frampton’s own activities as a historian consistent with this rejection? Is the recovery of historical forms in architecture always linked to authoritarian modes
        of thought? And how does Critical Regionalism’s supposed resistance to historicist readings of architecture deal with its own history?

      What does the author’s ‘owning’ of a project mean? And does this sense of ownership still prevail in contemporary architecture culture? Other more open forms of cooperation and co-creation are emerging alongside the concept of individual singular authorship.
