Hans Scharoun - Philharmonie

Berlin 1956-1963. Edited by Wilfried Wang and Daniel E. Sylvester. Essays by Eva-Maria Barkhofen, Mack Scogin, Wilfried Wang and Daniel E. Sylvester.

Durch zahlreiche bislang unveröffentlichte Archivmaterialien (vor allem Zeichnungen), historische und aktuelle Fotografien und vier englischsprachige Essays dokumentiert der Band dieses Beispiel der architektonischen Nachkriegsmoderne. Hans Scharoun's design for the Philharmonie is without precedent. It became the paradigm for numerous concert halls all over the world, but none has ever come close to the Philharmonie's conceptual, compositional, constructional, social and synesthetic experiential integrity. The Archive of the Academy of the Arts, Berlin, the Center for American Architecture and Design together with the O’Neil Ford Chair in Architecture at the University of Texas at Austin document this outstanding example of contemporary architecture. This volume includes four essays and the reproduction of extensive hitherto unpublished archival material, and concludes with a comprehensive selection of photographs. 256 Seiten mit 100 Farb- und etwa 170 s/w-Abb., Querformat 22 cm x 30 cm, broschiert (O'NFM_5 - The O'Neil Ford Monograph Series; Vol. 5/Wasmuth Verlag 2013) leichte Lagerspuren/near mint
