In over thirty years of practice, Robert A. M. Stern has developed a distinctive architecture committed to the synthesis of tradition and innovation and, above all, to the creation and enhancement of a meaningful sense of place. This monograph, covering the years 1999?2002, is the fourth in a series on Stern's work. The volume includes more than one hundred projects, including houses and apartments, buildings for cultural institutions and universities, office and commercial structures, government facilities, and designs for products, including fabric and tableware.

About the book >.>.> Contemporary practice and theory remind me of the pop song "Fifty Ways to Leave Your Lover": they do anything but confront a situation head-on. When architects meet to discuss their art they pose issue after issue in a restless search to avoid addressing the simple but profound cir- cumstances of architecture. These "issues" include literary theory and social science, cyberspace and many more. But what of architecture itself? For me, architecture is enough-difficult but full of possibilities. For me, archi- tecture is an expression of the real world-the built world in the service of individuals and institutions. It is the art of construction, not deconstruction; of representation, not communication. It is the solidity of the here-and-now. Put another way, architecture is the stage on which humanity plays out its ever-changing drama. It is the stage, not the drama; the setting, not the performer. It is not inhabited sculpture, or drawings, or performance, to name but a few of the things it is. Artikel-Nr. Batch-FM501-VG-11059
