Résumé:
The German-American architect Dirk Lohan began to record his conversations with his grandfather Ludwig Mies van der Rohe in the summer of 1969. The tapes, recorded during the final weeks of Mies's life, captured some of the architect's very last words. They were sent to the Museum of Modern Art in New York after his death, though they went missing under unknown circumstances. Only an incomplete typescript remains as a testimony to the conversations. ''The lost, last words of Mies van der Rohe'' presents this text in its entirety for the very first time. The conversations relayed in the typescript reveal the famously reticent Mies speaking about his own life with a level of detail, precision, and candour found nowhere else. They shed new light on Mies's character – not only as a serious, philosophical man but also as a human being alive to the humorous aspects of life. This book features a foreword by Dirk Lohan and an introductory essay by Fritz Neumeyer, the world's foremost scholar on Mies. Neumeyer's commentary and analysis provide keen insights into how Mies developed his architectural thinking during his early career, on his way to becoming the most important modern architects of the twentieth century.

Résumé:
When officially announced in 2015 that the Four Seasons Hotel restaurant and bar was closing, one could hear a gasp of disbelief around the world. The bastion of power lunches and the stunning elegance of Philip Johnson's 1959 interiors in Mies van der Rohe's landmark Seagram Building was over, to be disassembled and auctioned off. The only solace is that respected auction house Wright, was chosen to disperse the treasure trove of classic mid-century modern furniture and objects into new and loving hands. This slender catalog creates an invaluable record of all the items that made the restaurant memorable and adored. From custom furniture by Mies and Johnson with Knoll to Hans Wegner's The Chair, tableware designed by L. Garth and Ada Louis Huxtable to Saarinen's tulip tables and chairs, one can see why dining felt so special. Essays by architectural critic Paul Goldberger, food journalist Alan Richman and Vanity Fair editor-in-chief Graydon Carter plus historical photos make for an vital tribute.

Résumé:
Built between 1945 and 1951, the Farnsworth House in Plano, Illinois, is among Mies van der Rohe’s most famous works. Having relocated to the United States just prior to the war, he embraced the new opportunities the country provided for his modernist vision. The house appears in the same style as others in a series of buildings from the architect’s American period, and is considered something of a prototype. Commissioned to design a weekend retreat for a prominent Chicago psychiatrist, Van der Rohe created an enchanting space that was at once both a sanctuary and a monument to modern architecture. With photographs and text by Yoshio Futagawa.
