Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -The first publication of artist and architect Frederick Kiesler's epoch-spanning history of human architecture, largely unknown but still relevant.Magic Architecture was the architect Frederick Kiesler's most ambitious book project, an epoch-spanning history of human housing from prehistory to the atomic era, submitted to editors after World War II but left unpublished. In its holistic view of habitation through the lens of anthropology, ecology, and the life sciences, Magic Architecture is one of the most extraordinary texts on architecture written in the twentieth century, now at last published in the twenty-first. Kiesler's exploration of the effects of modern technology in combination with the alternative epistemology of "magical" practices associated with cave drawings and the first artifacts of human industry reflects his profoundly interdisciplinary perspective on the development of art, architecture, and design.This critical edition preserves Kiesler's conception of the book as a neo-Vitruvian treatise divided into ten parts that narrate an alternative history and theory of architecture. Also included are more than seventy composite plate illustrations consisting of images cut and pasted from books and popular science journals, with elaborate captions, as well as Kiesler's own line drawings made specifically for this project. The editors have reassembled the book's text and illustrations from archival documents, supplementing them with notes that trace the copious development of the work. Introductory essays provide an interpretation of key themes and bibliographic sources, as well as a chronological context of the architect's research. Appendixes offer additional textual and visual material gathered by Kiesler for the project.Libri GmbH, Europaallee 1, 36244 Bad Hersfeld 400 pp. Englisch.

Erstausgabe
Z : 240 Seiten, zahlreiche farbige und s/w Abbildungen - Der austro-amerikanische Architekt, Designer, Bühnenbildner, Künstler und Theoretiker Friedrich Kiesler ist ein wahrer Visionär des 20. Jahrhunderts. In Berlin, Wien und Paris schuf er in den 1920er-Jahren elektromechanische Bühnenbilder, spiralförmige Raumbühnen, modulare Ausstellungssysteme und konzipierte eine frei in der Luft schwebende Raumstadt. 1926 ging er nach New York, revolutionierte die Schaufenstergestaltung, baute 1930 das erste 100%-Kino, schuf den Urahnen des Nierentisches und gründete ein Laboratory for Design Correlation. 1942 gestaltete Kiesler für Peggy Guggenheim die Galerie Art of This Century. Seine Grundidee des endlos fließenden Raumes kulminierte in den Endless House-Projekten der 1950er-Jahre. Mit dem 1965 eröffneten Shrine of the Book in Jerusalem verwirklichte er eines der bedeutendsten Museen seiner Zeit.
