For over 20 years, this Iraqi-born, English-educated architect has symbolized cutting-edge contemporary architecture. Throughout her training at London's Architectural Association, and her work with Rem Koolhaas at OMA, to the establishment of her own worldwide architectural practice in 1979, Zaha Hadid has been acclaimed for her vanguard architectonic language. This is the first complete monograph on one of the world's most popular and important architects. Zaha Hadid's entire oeuvre - over 80 built and unbuilt works of the past 20 years - is collected in this volume.
Painters often draw from existing visual materials, such as photographs and reproductions of past works of art, to construct their work. Mamma Andersson is no exception but takes the process a step or two further, importing images of stacks of books and stray photographs, clipped from various sources, into her compositions. Her psychologically-charged paintings have an eerie sense of familiarity, as collaged dreamscapes cluttered with common imagery and accumulated biblio-ephemera.
"This publication presents the spectacular building in photographs by Helene Binet and Paul Warchol and essays by Charles Desmarais and Joseph Giovannini. Numerous models and sketches provide an insight into the design process."--BOOK JACKET.
