In This Muchanticipated Sequel To His Critically Acclaimed Makers Of Modern Architecture (2007)Longtime New York Review Of Books Contributor Martin Fillerprobably The Best Allround Architecture Critic Currently Working In The United States, According To The Architectural Journalist David Cohnoffers Another Penetrating Series Of Concise But Authoritative Studies On Leading Exponents Of The Building Art From The Late Nineteenth To The Early Twentyfirst Century. Exemplifying His Belief That An Architects Personality And Character Have A Direct And Profound Bearing On This Most Public And Social Of Art Forms, Fillers Lively Melding Of Biographical And Aesthetic Perspectives Gives These Accessible Yet Scrupulously Researched Interpretations A Rare Human Immediacy.From Profiles Of Such Universally Admired Masters As Frank Lloyd Wright And Le Corbusier To Emerging Figures Including Michael Arad, Creator Of New York Citys National September 11 Memorial, And The International Design Collaborative Snhetta, Fillers Shifting Focus Remains Consistently Trained On The Enduring Values Of Great Architecture. His Panoramic Vision Encompasses The Historically Inspired Gilded Age Urbanism Of The Celebrated New York Bon Vivant Stanford White As Well As The Expressive Collages Of Ancient And Modern Elements Orchestrated By The Reclusive Venetian Intellectual Carlo Scarpa. The Increasing Role Of Women In Architecture Is Given Special Emphasis In This New Collection, From The Pioneering Work In 1920S Germany Of Margarete Schuttelihotzky, Inventor Of The Standardized Modern Kitchen, To Such Innovative Contemporary Practitioners As Elizabeth Diller, Kazuyo Sejima, And Billie Tsien.
