REVOLUTION WILL BE STOPPED HALFWAY - JASON ODDY...

Of all of the Brazilian modernist Oscar Niemeyer's many built works  his Algerian projects are
among the least well known. Beginning in 1968  Algeria's President Houari Boumediene
commissioned Niemeyer to build two universities and an Olympic sports hall  as well as a series
of large-scale  never-realized projects across Algeria  in an attempt to forge a modernist 
independent nation. In 2013  Jason Oddy produced an in-depth photographic survey of these
buildings as they exist in Algeria today. The Revolution Will Be Stopped Halfway collects those
images alongside archival documents and Oddy's further research into Niemeyer's Algerian work
in order to explore the revolutionary politics that inspired and formed these buildings
