From vernacular movie theaters of the 1930s and spectacular hotel resorts to libraries, private residences, universities, museums and the fantastical buildings of Las Vegas, Thomas Schiff's Prospect documents quintessential American architecture at its grandest. Schiff uses panoramic views to draw out vertiginous effects of scale and drama from the sweeping interiors he portrays: "In the past, I've always looked for a photograph and tried to isolate a tiny area that would make a good print, " Schiff says. "With panoramic photography, you approach it a different way. Instead of trying to isolate a photograph, you look for an entire area where there is a good view in all directions. " Among the more than 200 photographs in Prospect are buildings by some of the titans of contemporary architecture, such as Norman Foster, Frank Lloyd Wright, Louis Kahn, Zaha Hadid and Renzo Piano. ; 17 X 1.5 X 9.75 inches; 304 pages.

Zustand: Gut. Zustand: Gut | Seiten: 450 | Sprache: Englisch | Produktart: Bücher | Fort Ross State Historic Park is one of the oldest and most unique of California's state parks. Since 1988, archaeologists from the University of California, Berkeley, under the direction of Professor Kent Lightfoot, have conducted ongoing investigations of Fort Ross. Their work has revealed important details concerning life at the Russian settlement. In the past, interpretation at Fort Ross focused on the ethnic Russians who were perceived to have dominated the settlement. We now know that the Russians played a much smaller role in the settlement's daily affairs, and that the Native Alaskans (and the Native Californians) carried out the brunt of the work. This second volume in the series The Archaeology and Ethnohistory of Fort Ross, California, is a fitting commemoration of the people of Fort Ross. By examining the Native Alaskan Village, this volume helps to illuminate the population of the settlement that was relegated to the edges of history and public interpretation for many years.The volume includes 448 pages of text, 201 figures, 74 tables, and 29 appendices.
