Summary:
Embracing one's own traditions is not a backward turn. Instead, it represents the chance to obtain a European identity, which after the erratic attemps at finding form in past decades can now be developed further in a new continuity. The works of Ortner & Ortner exhibit this clearly. Following their Primer of Architecture, Ortner & Ortner new provide a compendium of their buildings and designs for 'European culture'. Presented are projects in three areas: theaters, museums, and libraries. The projects begin with the experimental ventures from the Haus-Rucker-Co era and end cultural buildings that are among the most significant internationally. 'European culture' is an exemplary situation in which the old and new concur in an unparalleled wealth of features and are then reunited in a new blend. A comprehensive text section with contributions by Manuela Hötzl, Ernst Hubeli, Bart Lootsma, Sophie Lovell, and Laurids Ortner focuses on selected projects, grasping the ingredients of this European blend.

In The Evolving European City, renowned urban planner and architect Giuseppe Marinoni and eminent photographer Giovanni Chiaramonte assemble a breathtaking presentation of cities that have undergone profound change in order to combat congestion, pollution, and the unsightliness of industrial wastelands.
