Book
Rilegato. Condition: buone condizioni. This is a collection of Huxtable's best observations on our urban environment as the architectural critic of The New York Times. Huxtable is currently the Architectural Editor for The Wall Stre Journal. Very good conditions but no dust jacket. Ada Louise Huxtable (née Landman; 1921 ? 2013) was an architecture critic and writer on architecture. Huxtable established architecture and urban design journalism in North America and raised the public?s awareness of the urban environment. In 1970 she was awarded the first ever Pulitzer Prize for Criticism. Architecture critic Paul Goldberger, also a Pulitzer Prize-winner (1984) for architectural criticism, said in 1996: "Before Ada Louise Huxtable, architecture was not a part of the public dialogue." " She was a great lover of cities, a great preservationist and the central planet around which every other critic revolved," said architect Robert A. M. Stern, dean of the Yale University School of Architecture.
