Hardcover. Zustand: Fine. Leichte Rillen / Abschurfungen / Risse / Knicke. From 1940 to 1990, Los Angeles transformed into a major industrial, economic, and creative hub, becoming a testing ground for innovative architecture. This exploration examines the impact of these architectural experiments on modern design and reshapes perceptions of the city's dynamic built environment, highlighting its vibrant architectural legacy. The exhibition and catalogue feature drawings, models, and images that reveal the complex, often overlooked aspects of Los Angeles, showcasing its evolution into an internationally recognized destination with a distinct design language and iconic landmarks. This investigation builds on the foundational work of historians, theorists, curators, critics, and activists who have analyzed the city's development. Thought-provoking essays delve into various narratives, including the physical landscape, the rise of modernism, influential residential architecture, and pioneering uses of bold forms, advanced materials, and new technologies in commercial and transportation buildings. Los Angeles's capacity for change and innovation stands out as a key strength, positioning future generations to leverage its resources for new architectural advancements. A related exhibition will be held at the J. Paul Getty Museum from April 9 to July 21, 2013.

With the acquisition in recent years of multiple Egyptological libraries (those of Prof. Herman te Velde; Prof. Mathieu Heerma van Voss, Prof. Baudouin van de Walle; Prof. Michel Malaise; Prof. Herman De Meulenaere; Egyptologist Jacobus Visser, and former Trustee of the Egypt Exploration Society, Stewart Dale White), we now hold several thousands of rare offprint monographs which were collected over many years by these scholars. Very limited in number when originally issued and fragile by nature, most are by now practically extinct and the scarce survivors are much sought after. We took upon ourselves to collate, catalogue, and identify each item in accordance with Beinlich-Seeber or Annual Egyptological Bibliography, in the hope that this collection will prove useful for scholars and collectors alike.
