Drawing on the most candid, revealing, and entertaining conversations from twenty years of interviews with Frank Gehry, Barbara Isenberg gives us an unprecedented, intimate portrait of our most influential architect. In addition, sketches, models, and computer images provided by Gehry--the majority in color--allow us to see how his buildings have come to fruition, step by step. Gehry's subjects range from his childhood--when he first built cities with chunks of wood--to his relationships with clients. He talks about architectural influences (including Le Corbusier, Frank Lloyd Wright, and Rudolf Schindler) and describes what he has learned from Michelangelo, Rembrandt, and Rauschenberg. He discusses his designs for the controversial $4 billion Brooklyn Atlantic Yards project, the Walt Disney Concert Hall, the revitalization of Grand Avenue in downtown Los Angeles, the Gehry Collection at Tiffany's, and ongoing projects in Toronto, Paris, Abu Dhabi, and elsewhere. He illuminates the creative process by which his ideas become landmark buildings, showing us early sketches for the Guggenheim Museum in Bilbao, when the undulating curves were mere scribbles on a page. "Conversations with Frank Gehry "is essential reading for everyone interested in the art and craft of architecture, and for everyone fascinated by the most iconic buildings of our time, as well as the man and mind behind them.

Adelaide Labille-Guiard

Artist in the Age of Revolution

Prijs Euro 32.95

This book features a fascinating exploration of the life and works of one of Revolutionary France's most significant female artists. Adelaide Labille-Guiard (1749-1803) was a remarkable portraitist and painter, she was also one of the very few women ever granted membership to the French Royal Academy of Painting and Sculpture. So highly regarded was she that her work was sought out by such diverse figures as the aunts of Louis XVI and the future American President Thomas Jefferson. Yet, unlike her contemporary and fellow Academy member, Elisabeth-Louise Vigee-Le Brun, Labille-Guiard remained in France during the Revolution and participated in the reinvention of the country, its art, and its women. Tracing the fascinating story of her rise and fall in the context of her tumultuous times, this superbly illustrated volume fills a major gap in the exploration of art during the French Revolution.

Lynton, Norbert

Tatlin's Tower

Monument to Revolution

Prijs Euro 58.95

The plans for the gigantic Monument to the Third International were completed in 1920 by Vladimir Tatlin, the Russian painter and visionary designer who was a key figure of Russian constructivism. Planned as the headquarters and monument of the Comintern in Petrograd, it was to be made from industrial materials - iron, glass, and steel - as a towering symbol of modernity. Because of the political turmoil and housing shortages in Russia after the 1917 Revolution, the building was never constructed, but it remains a celebrated icon of revolutionary art. In this insightful book, Norbert Lynton investigates the sources and symbolism of Tatlin's Tower and considers not only its significance but also the broader role of allegory in abstraction and as an expression of man's highest aspirations.Then, in light of his new symbolic reading of the Tower, Lynton examines Tatlin's flying machine, Letatlin, and earlier works in his career and discusses their impact on other Russian painters, sculptors, designers and archite cts of his era.
