For western brutalism, there are also photo-blogs like: http://fuckyeahbrutalism.tumblr.com/

IMO the b/w photography this blog uses does flatter the buildings a bit; in full color in person they don't have quite the same feel.

"Brutalism - for people who like living in unfinished construction sites covered in seeping water damage"

I cheer a little on the inside whenever I see a brutalist building being torn down. There's so very few buildings of the type that are worth anything, and so many of the type that barely last a generation before needing repairs that amount to new construction cost.
