About This Item
New York: Princeton Architectural Press, 2002. First edition. Near fine in near fine dust jacket.. Inscribed first printing of this gallery of the controversial Brutalist architect's early residential work, richly illustrated with detailed analysis. Paul Rudolph was one of the century's most most original architects, mixing the Brutalist style for which he is now best known with a modernist flair. This copy is signed by both authors. The hardcover issue is especially uncommon. 8'' x 9.75''. Original dark orange boards. Original price-clipped color pictorial dust jacket. Illustrated in black and white. 248 pages. Signed and dated by Domin and inscribed by King ("To Andre Fontaine / With Best Wishes / Joseph King. Oct 2.07") on title page, with inscribed card from Domin loosely laid in. Binding with a bit shaken with some bumping to corners and spine ends. Touch of rubbing to extremities. Bright and clean overall.
Reviews
On Apr 27 2014, Jw468 said:
This book is an excellent overview of Rudolph’s early career and work. Some of the works/projects do need more coverage. It’s frustrating when the authors discuss some feature of a work and then don’t provide the drawings and/or photos that show said feature. The status of each work (standing/destroyed) would have been good information to include.
