Summary:
This palm-sized book presents two of the most innovative structures of the modern age (and two of the most important art museums)in one package. The book highlights the New York Guggenheim, Frank Lloyd Wright's crowning achievement, and the Guggenheim Museum in Bilbao, Spain, recently designed to high acclaim by Frank O. Gehry. One half of the book contains 30 duotone photographs of the Guggenheim Museum in New York City. These images were taken in 1959, shortly after the building's completion, by Ezra Stoller, one of the pre-eminent architectural photographers in the world and the founder of the renowned Esto architectural photography studio. Flipping the book over reveals the other half, which consists of 34 colour images of the Bilbao Museum, taken by Jeff Goldberg, an Esto architectural photographer and winner of the 1999 Institute Honors for Collaborative Achievement from the American Institute of Architects.

Summary:
Vivre dans une maison de verre, entièrement lumineuse, dans une architecture de cristal est un vieux rêve que les architectes expérimentèrent d'abord au XIXe siècle dans des serres et des gares, puis au XXe siècle dans des usines, des grands magasins, des immeubles de bureaux et enfin, grâce aux avancées technologiques, dans des immeubles d'habitation. Une des plus célèbres maisons de verre est celle édifiée par les architectes Pierre Chareau et Bernard Bijvoet rue Saint-Guillaume à Paris de 1927 à 1931. En 1935 le jeune architecte Paul-Amaury Michel, au retour d'une visite chez Le Corbusier, édifie à son tour à Bruxelles une maison de verre qui constitue une adroite synthèse du concept de machine à habiter et de la maison de Chareau. Classée monument en 1998, la maison de verre a fait l'objet d'une restauration scrupuleuse en 2002.
