Description:
A detailed study of the career and works of one of the masters of the modernist architectural movement in the 20th century. Krinsky (fine arts, NYU) carefully scrutinizes over forty years of Bunshaft's work, projects as diverse as the 24-story Lever House in New York, which ushered in a new age of skyscrapers, and the Haj Terminal at King Abdul Ziz international Airport in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, which boasts modular spaces covered by high-tech fabric "umbrellas". A part of the American Monograph Series published by the Architectural History Foundation. 320 illustrations, 17 in color. Beautifully produced. No bibliography. Annotation copyright Book News, Inc.
