Synopsis
Based on the BBC TV series "Building Sights", this photographic record features a wide range of buildings from the UK, Europe and USA. First shown in 1989, the programme has now completed five series. A selection of projects from each of the five series is featured, and accompanying essays by well-known artists, actors, architects and writers comment on the architecture of their favourite building and the reasons for it being so. A brief description is also given of the architect's or designer's work. Among the celebrities and projects featured are: Bruce McLean on the Glasgow School of Art; Alan Bennett on County Arcade, Leeds; Philip Johnson on Grand Central Terminal, New York; Jack Travis on the Hoover Dam, Nevada; John Malkovich on the Chrysler Building, New York; Sir Norman Foster on the Boeing 747; and Vaclav Havel on the Mames Building, Czech Republic.
