Description

An admirer of Le Corbusier, in whose studio he briefly worked, and one of the most internationally renowned Swiss architects, Mario Botta has been described as a modern baroque architect. Whether elaborate or unostentatious, his buildings exude dignity, generosity and Mediterranean charm, and exercise a fascinating visual attraction. The Complete Works of Mario Botta by Birkhauser is the only edition authorised by the architect himself, and has established itself as the international standard reference work on the subject. Volume 2 provides comprehensive documentation of Botta s works from 1985 - 1990, complete with extensive catalogues of his projects, exhibitions and publications

Description

The Complete Works of Mario Botta by Birkhauser is the only edition authorised by the architect himself, and has established itself as the international standard reference work on the subject. Volume 3 provides comprehensive documentation of Botta s works from 1990 - 1997, complete with extensive catalogues of his projects, exhibitions and publications. The highlights of this period include the Cathedral of Evry, near Paris, and the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, both of which drew worldwide acclaim. However this volume also presents Botta s activity as a furniture designer, and exhibition and stage designer.
