Summary:
Combining fascinating detail with a rigorous account that spans three millennia, The Colossal argues that the artist who best understood and tapped into the kolossos was Alberto Giacometti. Mason shows that the Swiss sculptor and painter’s work articulated themes of death and mourning in ways rarely seen since the art of archaic Greece, themes most evident in his enigmatic work, The Cube.

Summary:
Since the 1980s, critical regionalism has been globally celebrated for imbuing modern architecture with local sensibilities. After rising to international stardom, however, several critical regionalists soon began to erect distinctive albeit “placeless” buildings around the world. Aris Konstantinidis (1913–1993), a Greek architect less well known outside of his home country, instead propagated his vision of regional modernism to global audiences on his own terms through his publishing and teaching beyond national borders. This operative history of his life and work outside Greece unveils the potential for alternative practices of critical regionalism abroad.
