- Summary:
- Examining 20 years' worth of the work of architect Paola Iacucci, who has spent a career between New York and Italy, this document is a record of the often heterogeneous experience of architecture. Iacucci's projects, drawings, models, buildings, and writings offer a deep and sharp sensibility and insight into contemporary architecture as they unfold two different perspectives: those of the East and the West. The two parts of this consideration-the Book of the East and the Book of the West-investigate the subtle relation between the concepts of the void and the solid or material in architecture in two very different worlds. -- Publisher info.
