Dives (Dolphin) (Bookworms Guess Who)
"A mix of individual projects, models, and points of inspiration and offers a peek inside the process of a very exciting group of architects indeed." --DWELL"Beautifully produced and designed... a sneak-peek into the mind of Gang and her team. " --Print"This year, Chicago's Jeanne Gang was the first architect since 1999 to win a $500,000 MacArthur Fellowship. Her firm's bracing monograph shows why: Standard building presentations are layered with unexpected narrative threads and format twists, such as a fold-out history of a glacial boulder that was jack-hammered to make way for Gang's Aqua, 82 stories of undulating concrete near Lake Michigan." -- San Francisco Chronicle"What happens when a brilliant architect decides to construct a book rather than a building? You get Reveal , an idiosyncratic collection of dazzling images and insightful text that shows the hidden influence behind each of her firms projects." -- Chicago magazine"Anything but formulaic... thoroughly compiled, intelligently written, and beautifully presented; I'm hoping Book Two isn't too far off." --Archidose.org--This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
