Summary:
Tadao Ando faced a new constructional challenge with the renovation of two of Venice’s iconic buildings. Approached by French magnate François Pinault to renovate two disparate but equally high-profile and challenging Venetian structures to house his collection of contemporary art—the Palazzo Grassi and the Punta della Dogana—Ando employed his signature process to produce two elegant interiors from highly complicated historic sites.

Summary:
This monograph highlights the global works of Vinoly. For nearly half a century Rafael Vinoly has been driven by the belief that the responsibility of architecture is to elevate the public realm. While his early work in Argentina transformed the landscape of his native country, his first major international projects - the John Jay College of Criminal Justice in New York and the International Forum in Tokyo - established Vinoly as a global presence in architecture, whose buildings sustain a structural originality that transcends passing fads. This monograph features a chronological sampling of Vinoly's best work in the United States, Latin America, Europe, Asia, Africa and the Middle East. The large and small-scale projects encompass courthouses, private residences, athletic facilities, performing arts centres, museums and educational buildings. Illustrated with photographs, plans and drawings, and accented by Vinoly's personal reflection on his career, this volume brings together the achievements of one of today's most internationally acclaimed architects.
