Buy now Publishers blurb: In this book, the projects,
buildings and theories of Koolhaas, as well as the other members of
the Office for Metropolitan Architecture, are examined in
chronological and thematic sequence, beginning with the period of
Koolhaas' education at the Architectural Association School of
Architecture of London in the cultural context of the
neo-avant-gardes at the end of the 60s and at the beginning of the
70s. The essay then discusses the period of his stay in New-York,
his contact with Ungers, Eisenman, Rowe, as well as the polemic
confrontation with the emerging post-modernism movement; and it
concludes with the last critical contributions of Koolhaas. |
