Summary:
There’s no master without myth, so it is no surprise that the four most prominent modern architects, the most widely studied at schools, had novel-like lives: moments of genius, crises, stimulating friendships, great women by their sides… Luis Fernández-Galiano discusses all this in the new issue of AV Monographs, which examines the biographies of Frank Lloyd Wright, Mies(...)

Summary:
There’s no master without myth, so it is no surprise that the four most prominent modern architects, the most widely studied at schools, had novel-like lives: moments of genius, crises, stimulating friendships, great women by their sides… Luis Fernández-Galiano discusses all this in the new issue of AV Monographs, which examines the biographies of Frank Lloyd Wright, Mies van der Rohe, Le Corbusier, and Alvar Aalto. These life journeys originated in a series of lectures delivered in 2010 at the Fundación Juan March in Madrid, which had a great turnout and have continued to draw considerable attention ever since, thanks to streaming. As with ‘Four Cities’ (AV 259), this success with audiences has encouraged to document the talks in print, maintaining the natural pace and graphic profuseness of slide presentations.

Summary:
Georg Rauh (1906–1965) enhanced the Eastern Swiss architectural landscape with his work. His oeuvre, comprising around 100 buildings, is characterized by the considered placement of volumes, sensible floor plans and a subtle choice of materials. A clear programme is discernible: reduction and functionality, fully in the spirit of Bauhaus teaching. The trained carpenter(...)

Summary:
Georg Rauh (1906–1965) enhanced the Eastern Swiss architectural landscape with his work. His oeuvre, comprising around 100 buildings, is characterized by the considered placement of volumes, sensible floor plans and a subtle choice of materials. A clear programme is discernible: reduction and functionality, fully in the spirit of Bauhaus teaching. The trained carpenter studied at the Bauhaus Dessau under Hannes Meyer and Ludwig Hilberseimer, before graduating in 1932 under Mies van der Rohe. After returning to Switzerland, he worked as a teacher at a vocational school and subsequently as an architect for social housing. This catalogue of works documents his architectural heritage and its key buildings, which are portrayed by comparing the original plans, as well as in images and photographs by Ladina Bischof.

Summary:
Lafayette Park, a middle-class residential area in downtown Detroit, is home to the largest collection of buildings designed by Ludwig Mies van der Rohe in the world. Throughout the 1990s and 2000s, it remained one of Detroit's most racially integrated and economically stable neighborhoods, although it was surrounded by evidence of a city in financial distress. Through interviews with and essays by residents, reproductions of archival material, new photographs by Karin Jobst, Vasco Roma and Corine Vermeulen, and previously unpublished photographs by documentary filmmaker Janine Debanné, 'Thanks for the View, Mr. Mies' examines the way that Lafayette Park residents confront and interact with this unique modernist environment. This book is a reaction against the way that iconic modernist architecture is often represented. Whereas other writers may focus on the design intentions of the architect, authors Aubert, Cavar and Chandani seek to show the organic and idiosyncratic ways in which the people who live in Lafayette Park actually use the architecture and how this experience, in turn, affects their everyday lives.
