Mies van der Rohe Windhorst Edward, Schulze Franz

"Mies van der Rohe: A Critical Biography" is a major rewriting and expansion of Franz Schulze's acclaimed 1985 biography, the first full treatment of the master German-American modern architect. Co-authored with architect Edward Windhorst, this thoroughly revised edition features new and extensive original research and commentary and draws on the best recent work of American and German scholars and critics. Schulze and Windhorst trace Mies's European career in its progression to avant-garde modernism – where his work was materially rich but of modest scale – to his second maturity and world renown in the United States, where he invented a new architectural language of "objective" structural expression. Among the authors' most exciting new discoveries is the massive transcript of the early-1950s Farnsworth House court case, which discloses for the first time the facts about Mies's epic battle with his client Edith Farnsworth. The book reveals new information about his relationships... Это и многое другое вы найдете в книге Mies van der Rohe (Windhorst Edward, Schulze Franz)
