Neutra, Complete Works - Reviews

Page [1] [2] [3]
"Peter Gössel, Herausgeber der Kleinen Reihen bei TASCHEN, und die Autorin Barbara Lamprecht haben sich mit Bravour dem Architekten Richard Neutra gewidmet und damit diesem großartigen humanistisch und kosmopolitischen Um-, Außen- und Innenraum-Gestalter eine Denk-Mal-Broschur geschaffen. Die Verkörperung einer österreichisch-kalifornischen modernen Architektur kommt in diesem konzentrierten Werk außerordentlich markant zum Ausdruck."

"At Urban Center Books in Manhattan, the reigning heavyweight is 'Richard Neutra: Complete works,' about the Southern California modernist. It's a 12-pounder, with covers veneered in blond wood, and 464 pages about the size of doormats. And the architect didn't even dictate this monumental tribute to himself (he died in 1970)."

"The sleek, modern style of his buildings are reproduced in a mixture of atmospheric black and white and capture-the-mood colour photos. This is one heavy tome, though, so position it to be looked through in situ for maximum enjoyment."

"... the definitive volume on the Viennese-born architect and his ground-breaking split-level steel and glass."

"...the definitive book on the architect."

One of the best architectural book I have ever seen on my desk, I was very excited when I got this book, since I have been an admirer of this architect for many years so I can imagine not having it or been without it. I suggest to every architect and architectural students who pursues the architectural field should have it.

"Le travail exceptionnel de Richard Neutra est présenté dans ce livre monument. Un hommage passionnant à la hauteur de celui qui s'est imposé aux Etats- Unis comme un des plus grands créateurs de son temps."

"This massive volume, an examination of the complete built oeuvre of Richard Neutra (1892-1970) qualifies as architecture itself. Gorgeously produced by TASCHEN, it features a hard cover that appears to be plywood, and 464 pages in a large (31 cm x 40 cm) format. The author confides that the principal complaint of its fans is that the enormous book cannot be read in bed. Ms. Lamprecht presents six thoughtful essays on the life and work of Neutra in Europe and America before unveiling the core content: an inventory of the world's best Modernist buildings, splendidly photographed by longtime Neutra collaborator Julius Shulman, among others."
