James Carpenter
International monograph about this outstanding New York architect, engineer and artist.
James Carpenter
James Carpenters Arbeiten sind eine ungewöhnliche Verbindung aus Architektur und Kunst. Seine Glasfassaden – u.a. für das Deutsche Auswärtige Amt in Berlin – spielen ein Spiel mit Licht, Reflektion und Refraktion. Sie lenken unseren Blick nach außen oder schaffen je nach Sonnenstand wechselnde Eindrücke für den Passanten. Carpenter hat auch Kurzfilme und Video-Installationen geschaffen und sich dort vor allem mit Themen der Ökologie auseinandergesetzt. Er zeichnet für die Fassade des World Trade Center 7 verantwortlich, dem ersten Hochhaus, das auf dem Ground Zero-Gelände in New York im Oktober 2005 fertiggestellt werden wird. Weitere Arbeiten sind der Moiré Treppenturm im Post Tower in Bonn, das Tulane University Student Center in New Orleans und das Dichroic Light Field, eine Installation an einem Hochhaus an der Columbus Avenue in New York. Sandro Marpillero, geboren 1955 in Italien, ist Architekt und schreibt regelmäßig für die Architekturzeitschriften A+U, Casabella, Rassegna und Lotus International. Er unterrichtet als Associate Professor an der Columbia University in New York.

Drawing upon a broad array of studies in contemporary psychology, the author integrates a new model for understanding these unusual abilities with the best research in psychology on problems as divers...
