Summary:
Quarante ans de travail témoignent de la vitalité des réalisations de Jean-Michel Wilmotte et attestent une volonté qui d’emblée ne s’est pas cantonnée à la France mais au monde entier. En artiste complet, il s’est intéressé avec un même intérêt à l’architecture, la muséographie, la création de mobilier et l’urbanisme. L’ampleur des travaux de Wilmotte ne témoigne pas d’une insatiabilité, mais d’un sens de l’observation, d’un goût de la logique et d’un amour du paysage qui lui ont permis de créer de nouvelles modalités constructives tout en alimentant une agence qui comporte plus de deux cents collaborateurs. Ce livre tente de retracer à l’aide de remarquables photographies et dessins, l’apport de Wilmotte dans notre environnement par nombre de réalisations emblématiques telles : le stade de Nice, le centre de gestion sportive, Ferrari à Maranello, la tour Monte-Carlo View à Monaco, le pavillon des Sessions au musée du Louvres, le Rijksmuseum d’Amsterdam, le musée d’Art islamique de Doha, le chai Pédesclaux à Pauillac, les allées Jean Jaurès à Nîmes, les Champs-Elysées et la stratégie de développement du Grand Moscou.

Summary:
Famous for its transparency, the Philip Johnson Glass House--the icon of modernism that Vincent Scully called "the most conceptually important house of the century"--has nonetheless proven vexingly opaque to interpretation. Its architect, Philip Cortelyou Johnson, has been equally elusive, a polarizing and influential cultural figure on whom no psychological character study yet exists. In her new book, Adele Tutter addresses both enigmas. ''Dream House: An Intimate Portrait of the Philip Johnson Glass House'' reveals how this superficially nonrepresentational physical structure encodes aspects of its architect’s aspirations, motivations, and conflicts--how it acts as a veritable self-portrait of his inner world.
