A big, hulking, concrete look at brutalism

Crawford Hall at Yale. The Louis Micheels House in Westport. The Babbidge Library at UConn. Hotel Marcel in New Haven. Connecticut is dotted with stunning examples of brutalism, the divisively modernist and minimalist style of architecture. With Brady Corbet’s epic drama, The Brutalist, nominated for 10 Academy Awards including Best Picture, we take a long look at brutalism.
