Hardcover. Condizione: Fine. Condizione sovraccoperta: fine. First Edition, First Printing. St. Martin's Press, 1992. Hardcover in pictorial dust jacket. First Edition, First Printing. 15 x 12 inches. 144 pages with numerous illustrations throughout in color and black and white with accompanying text in English offering an architecture informed by science and politics; the free zones and freespaces Woods designs become a 'second nature', a terra nova. BOOK CONDITION: Fine; a solid, tight, clean copy in a Fine dust jacket showing light rubbing (protected by a clear plastic cover). This Monograph illustrates the range of Lebbeus Woods' ideas. The projects featured here are from the past decade, but have been developed over a whole career, and include the recent Zagreb Free Zone and Berlin Free Zone designs as well as the earlier projects such as Four Cities and Centricity. Together with texts by the architect, they show an architecture informed by science and politics; the free zones and freespaces Woods designs become a 'second nature', a terra nova. Peter Noever, in his introduction to the architect's work writes: 'Lebbeus Woods' criticism is shattering. He creates autonomous fields of force with his projects, murderously visionary images: real, frightening, and at the same time liberating.' As we can see in the work presented in this volume, the force behind the images, models and installations is immense, illustrating an architecture instrumental to the processes of experimentation, change and freedom.
