2.0 out of 5 stars
hardly more than a visual-fix for the eisenmaniac...,
By A Customer
This review is from: Eisenman Architects: Selected and Current Works (Master Architect Series) (Vol 9) (Hardcover)
a picture book of the cutting edge architect's critical works & projects thru his well recognized career. just as the strength of eisenman lies in his ability to produce architecture of genuinely varying qualities by all fundamental measures, both in theoretical & aesthetic terms, throughout this one man's professional career; this book has satisfactorily catalogued the progress of eisenman's ever transforming career as an architect of contemporary science and theory into stages of his theoretical quests. for precisely the same reason, this is probably not a book which the man himself would favour. besides a descriptive introduction by kwinter on the man's theoretical focus thru the years, the entire catalogue is devoid of substance to satisfy close observers of his contribution to contemporary architecture. it's a consumer's product.
