A tiny clothbound compendium of the overlooked and the incidental in architecture and daily life, from the legendary champion of modernist architecture
Phyllis Lambert (born 1927) is an architect, author, conservation activist and critic of architecture and urbanism, and the Founding Director Emeritus of the Canadian Centre for Architecture (CCA) in Montreal, which she established in 1979. Alongside her multifarious activities, she has also been a photographer of architecture. “My own use of the camera began in 1954 as I started to think about what a new building in New York—the Seagram building—could be,” she writes. “While in Rome during Easter, through the lens of a camera I had hardly used, I began to observe the quality of buildings: how they sat on the land, their articulation, and how architectural details related to a building as a whole.” This curiosity is a constant throughout Lambert’s work; she has devoted her career to studying and engaging with the changing conditions of urban landscapes. In this collection of personal photographs taken over several decades during her daily routines, her travels or at work, observation turns into a quest to understand and reveal what might otherwise remain overlooked.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -«Mein erster Gebrauch einer Kamera fand im Jahr 1954 statt, als ich darüber nachdachte, was ein neues Gebäude in New York - das Seagram Building - sein könnte. Als ich über Ostern in Rom war, begann ich, durch das Objektiv einer Kamera, die ich davor kaum benutzt hatte, die Qualität von Gebäuden zu beobachten: Wie sie auf dem Grundstück sassen, ihre Gliederung und wie architektonische Details mit dem Gebäude als Ganzes zusammenhingen.» - Phyllis LambertDiese Neugier ist eine Konstante in der Arbeit von Phyllis Lambert, die ihre Karriere dem Studium und der Auseinandersetzung mit den sich verändernden Bedingungen von Stadtlandschaften gewidmet hat. In dieser Sammlung persönlicher Fotografien, die sie über mehrere Jahrzehnte hinweg während ihrer täglichen Routine, auf Reisen oder bei der Arbeit aufgenommen hat, wird die Beobachtung zu einer Suche nach dem Verständnis und der Offenlegung dessen, was andernfalls übersehen werden könnte.
