Richly illustrated with colour plates. *** "From 1940 to 1990, Los Angeles rapidly evolved into one of the most populous and influential industrial, economic, and creative capitals in the world. During this era, the region was transformed into a laboratory for cutting-edge architecture. Overdrive: L. A. Constructs the Future, 1940-1990 examines these experiments and their impact on modern design, reframes the perceptions of Los Angeles's dynamic built environment, and amplifies the exploration of the city's vibrant architectural legacy. The drawings, models, and images highlighted in the Overdrive exhibition and catalogue reveal the complex and often underappreciated facets of Los Angeles and illustrate how the metropolis became an internationally recognized destination with a unique design vocabulary, canonical landmarks, and a coveted lifestyle. This investigation builds upon the groundbreaking work of generations of historians, theorists, curators, critics, and activists who have researched and expounded upon the development of Los Angeles. In this volume, thought-provoking essays shed more light on the exhibition's narratives, including Los Angeles's physical landscape, the rise of modernism, the region s influential residential architecture, its buildings for commerce and transportation, and architects pioneering uses of bold forms, advanced materials, and new technologies. Los Angeles's ability to facilitate change, experiment, recalibrate, and forge ahead is one of its greatest strengths. Future generations are destined to harness the region s enviable resources to create new layers of architectural innovations." - Publisher. *** CONTENTS: Foreword: Studying Los Angeles's urbanism, by Thomas W.

Paperback. Condizione: NEW. 72 pages, chiefly illustrations; 17 cm. BRAND NEW. A fine copy. Still in publisher's shrinkwrap. *** "The American architectural photographer Julius Shulman (1910-2009) is one of the few image makers to have documented, as well as witnessed, nearly an entire century of Los Angeles history. His captivating photographs serve as a visual record of the dramatic evolution of this exciting and diverse metropolis. Shulman's best-known images consist of mid-century views of Modernist domestic interiors, notably the iconic Case Study House #22 of 1960, in which two well-dressed women sit inside the floor-to-ceiling window walls of a Pierre Koenig-designed house that seems to float like a spaceship over the light-spangled urban sprawl beyond. Not as well known but equally powerful are Shulman's images of Union Station and downtown's vintage office buildings, the dynamic Wilshire Boulevard corridor, the region's eclectic coffee shops and movie theaters, the sweeping canopy of the Century Plaza Hotel, the diverse fabric of L.A.'s residential neighborhoods, and the panoramic vistas of the city of the future under construction. The author selected sixty images from the Getty Research Institute's Shulman archive for this elegant book, for which he also wrote an informative essay on the photographer's exceptional capacity to capture the diverse built environment of Los Angeles." - Publisher.
