Architectural context

About Michel Andrault

Michel Andrault (1926–2021) was a French architect who, together with Pierre Parat, formed one of France's most productive Brutalist practices. The catalogue holds 2 of their joint works.

Tour Totem in Paris is a Brutalist residential tower. The Basilica Santuario Madonna delle Lacrime (1994) in Syracuse, Sicily, is a monumental concrete church whose conical spire rises above the city — combining Brutalist structural logic with the emotional demands of sacred architecture.
