Almost four years since its initial appearance, Hans Ibelings' essay on the new tendency towards abstract, neutral architecture has lost none of its relevance. His identification and examination of the last word in modern architecture of the post-war International Style stands strong in projects by OMA, Jean Nouvel, Dominique Perrault, Herzog & de Meuron, and Toyo Ito, and is well understood in relation to one of the dominant forces of the present time: globalization. This enlarged edition of Supermodernism includes a new final chapter in which Ibelings charts the latest examples of supermodernism, as well as a revised introduction and conclusion in which he responds to the numerous reactions his provocative stance has triggered.

Worth it,

This review is from: Supermodernism (Paperback)
This is an essential text if one wishes to be involved in a contemporary discussion in architecture. It opposes the Jenck's iconic idealism. I am constantly referencing this text in graduate studies in architecture.

so-called "reviewers",
By Tomas Hribek (Czech Republic) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Supermodernism (Paperback)
It would be a good idea, for some of the customer reviewers on here, if they first learned what reviewing books means. For example, the author of the immediately preceding review thinks this book is bad -- deserving only one star -- because the bookseller has not delivered it to him yet. How sad...
