Summary:
The fields of photography and architecture have long been closely linked : photography provides a powerful way for architecture to be appreciated from a distance, and the camera lens alters and enhances buildings so that they can be appreciated anew, even by those already intimately familiar with them. Concrete: Photography and Architecture explores this deep and often complex relationship, with particular attention paid not only to how photography influences the perception of architecture but also the very design itself.

Summary:
At the turn of the 20th century, Vienna was a flourishing, modernist metropolis, its stimulating atmosphere carrying over into all areas of life. Jewish intellectuals, artists, and scientists had a marked influence on this creative fin de siècle climate. In this time, women also asserted their rights to establish their place in society.
