Paperback. Condition: Good. Over 125 Color & B/w Illustrations (illustrator). The question of how to build in historic city centres has increasingly troubled - and inspired - the architectural profession over the last 20 years. Stigmatized by the effects of five decades of modernist planning yet equipped with a fresh understanding and appreciation of tradition, architecture has reached what is arguably the most critical crossroads of the century. Architects around the world have begun to break out of the long period of self-imposed abstinence from contextual considerations, seeking ways by which to engage traditional and historic settings in meaningful dialogue and producing some of most engaging proposals in recent times. Differences abound, however, and raise questions concerning the exact nature of intervention. How far should historical precedents be taken as models? How are contemporary social and technological parameters incorporated in the new proposals? How should tradition and originality be understood? How can we retain traditional urban forms within the constraints of contemporary practice? What is the nature of the dialogue between architects and the people for whom they build? These and similar issues have been addressed by some of the world's foremost theorists and practitioners in the discussions of the Symposium here summarized, including Jacquelin Robertson, Maurice Culot, Demetri Porphyrios, Rob Krier and John Simpson. The book has been read but remains in clean condition. All pages are intact and the cover is intact. Some minor wear to the spine.

Book
Paperback. Condition: Very Good. Architecture today is moving at a faster pace than ever before. Many of the projects featured here reached us as proposals only a short while ago. The most recent progress of various architects is documented, including Peter Wilson, Gunter Behnisch, Philippe Starck, Zamp Kelp and Hani Rashid. Projects featured include Peter Wilson's house for David and Jancie Blackburn, which provides a visually and spatially supportive framework for their collection of contemporary furniture; Gunter Behnisch's whose recently completed Postal Museum, the latest in a series of 13 museums commissioned by the city of Frankfurt. New work by Philippe Starck finds a perfect outlet in Japan where it has captured the imagination of a wide range of corporate clients. And Christian Norburg-Schulz, in his article The New Tradition, asks if and how it is possible to derive an architecture that both reflects the dynamism of modernity and answers the need for a timeless built environment. Also included is an inside view of Carter Wiseman's recent book on IM Pei which conveys the controversy surrounding Pei's much-needed Louvre addition. The single spirit uniting writings and buildings is the persistent questioning of the direction that contemporary architecture is taking today. This profile, with its variety of answers, proves that pluralism is alive and leading to some of the best architecture for decades. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.

Book
Paperback. Condition: Very Good. This is an in-depth presentation of the Groningen project in Holland masterminded by Daniel Libeskind. Nine internationally renowned figures from a wide variety of disciplines were invited to design monumental tokens to be placed at the edge of the city. The resulting markers were rich in symbolism and imagination, with a theoretical diversity that could be expected from such a grouping. Among the participants were American historian of art and architecture Kurt Forster, German dramatist Heiner Muller, two visual artists, Thom Puckey from Holland and Leonhard Lapin from Estonia, two architects, American John Hejduck and Gunnar Daan from Holland. The product of enlightened patronage on the part of the citizens, politicians and bureaucrats of Groningen, the scheme set out to confront issues of urban identity on the occasion of the city's 950th anniversary. Containing a wealth of fascinating material both written and visual, this profile demonstrates the incredible vitality and ingenuity which lay behind this unique project. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.

Paperback. Condition: Very Good. This volume presents a sustained and original interpretation of painting and the question of the art object. Both topics raise questions central to the understanding of art in the 20th century and this book reviews: the relationship of painting to time; the continuing influence of Duchamp on the art-object; the increasing use of installation as an art form; and the instability of the categories of painting and sculpture that emerge from the project of mimimalism. The book discusses the work of artists from different generations including Anselm Kiefer, Jackson Pollock, Robert Ryman, Christian Boltanksi, Langlands and Bell. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.
