Description
Piero Sartogo and Nathalie Grenon are, as Richard Meier writes in his foreword, "European architects with a world perspective." This volume, clearly demonstrating that world perspective, is the first on the work of the Rome- and New York-based architectural practice. More than 30 projects - built, unbuilt, and under construction - from around the world - the United States, Italy, France, Spain, Switzerland, Wales, Japan, and Taiwan - are included in this monograph. The projects, organized in reverse chronological order, are illuminated by critiques and essays by such leading architectural writers as Rudolf Arnheim, Bruno Zevi, Paul Goldberger, and Kenneth Frampton. This unique organization creates an intense dialogue between architectural criticism and built form.
