The Stones of Fernand Pouillon - an Alternative Modernism in French Architecture - Hardcover
Reseña del editor
Fernand Pouillon (1912-86) was a modern architect, but he was not a modernist. For Pouillon magnificent old buildings and cities were part of the physical experience of the present. Their conventions and techniques were available to be deployed in new constructions that recall the epic qualities of the past at the same time as attend to matters of the everyday. This book, edited by Adam Caruso and Helen Thomas, is the first English publication dedicated to Pouillon. His contribution to twentieth-century architecture is explored through a rich set of perspectives, including texts by Pouillon himself, Jacques Lucan and Adam Caruso, and photographs by Hélène Binet.
