Synopsis
In spring 2000, as the Eero Saarinen Visiting Professor at Yale University, Zaha Hadid led an intense and wildly creative studio on the topic of the contemporary art center. Such centers are proliferating across the United States and around the world; yet their architectural form remains abstract and open-ended, subject to continual reinterpretation. Hadid's studio -- one leader, three studio assistants, twelve students, and numerous critics -- interpreted the contemporary art center as an invitation to experiment with new forms of public space. Specific contemporary works of art became the program for a series of radical architectural concepts that expand the space of the art, taking on the scale and materiality of full-scale architectural constructs. The studio -- and this volume -- was divided into ten segments, addressing such issues as program analysis, spatialities, system conditions, current contemporary art centers, building types, sites, and linearities. Each segment is represented by strikingly original renderings, including many fantastical computer images. The accompanying text is drawn from transcripts of the studio reviews by the prestigious critics: Robert A. M. Stern, dean of the Yale School of Architecture; Terence Riley and Paola Antonelli of the Museum of Modern Art; and architects, critics, and scholars Jeffrey Kipnis, Thomas Krens, Sulan Kolatan, William MacDonald, Fabian Marcaccio, Rebeca Mendez, Paola Sanguinetti, Joseph Giovannini, Marc Cousins, Greg Lynn, and Gail Witwer.

Kahn, Philip Johnson, Gordo Bunshaft, Paul Rudolph, and Marcel Breuer. I 1984, led by the architect Kevin Roche, forme clients and colleagues joined together t establish a chair in Saarinen's honor, whic has since been occupied by a roster c architects including Kazuo Shinohara, Richar Rogers, Sverre Fehn, Denise Scott Browr Robert Venturi, Philip Johnson, Cesar Pelli, an Zaha Hadid. Hadid and Saarinen have man things in common, not the least a passionat belief in the expressive capacity of form, compulsion to study each design project fror every possible angle with every means c representation available, and a faith in th architect's capacity to solve problems in a fields of design. Zaha Hadid burst onto the international seen as an independent voice with her controversy project for the Peak, Hong Kong, perhaps th first example of the deconstructivist ascer dency in contemporary architecture.
