Hardback. Condition: New. Peter Eisenman-world-famous for his Holocaust Memorial in Berlin (2005)-confronts historicism with theory and the analysis of form, whose distinguishing features he regards as the foundation of architectural composition. The architect illustrates his observations with numerous, extremely precise hand drawings. Eisenman wrote The Formal Basis of Modern Architecture, his dissertation, in 1963 at the University of Cambridge. The dissertation was first published as a facsimile edition by Lars Muller Publishers in 2006. The original content of the publication is now available again-the book is reprinted in a smaller format."I knew what I wanted to write," Eisenman says of the dissertation. "An analytic work that related what I had learned to see, from Palladio to Terragni, from Raphael to Guido Reni, into some theoretical construct that would bear on modern architecture, but from the point of view of a certain autonomy of form." Hence the title of his research.

Buch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - «Mir war klar, was ich schreiben wollte», sagt Eisenman über seine Dissertation. «Eine analytische Arbeit, die in Beziehung zu dem stand, was ich zu sehen gelernt hatte, von Palladio zu Terragni, von Raffael zu Guido Reni hin zu einem irgendwie theoretischen Konstrukt, das mit moderner Architektur in Zusammenhang stehen würde, aber aus dem Blickwinkel einer bestimmten Autonomie der Form.» In «The Formal Basis of Modern Architecture» konfrontiert der international geschätzte - und für sein Holocaust-Mahnmal in Berlin (2005) weltberühmte - US-amerikanische Architekt Peter Eisenman den Historizismus mit einer Theorie und Analyse der Form, deren charakteristische Eigenschaften er für das Fundament architektonischer Komposition hält. Eisenman illustriert seine Beobachtungen mit zahlreichen sehr präzisen Handzeichnungen. Seine Dissertation «The Formal Basis of Modern Architecture» verfasste Eisenman 1963 an der University of Cambridge. Die Arbeit wurde 2006 als Faksimilesausgabe von Lars Müller Publishers veröffentlicht. Nun ist der Originalinhalt der Publikation wieder in einem kleineren Format erhältlich.
