Description from the seller
PHILIP JOHNSON: A VISUAL BIOGRAPHY
Ian Volner – Phaidon Press – Original edition / Première edition, 2020
Important monograph devoted to Philip Johnson, one of the major and most influential figures in 20th-century architecture.
Published by Phaidon Press in 2020, this imposing work traces nearly seven decades of career, from Johnson’s pivotal role in the introduction and dissemination of modern architecture in the United States to his postmodern achievements.
The book is not limited to his architectural work: it also places Johnson in his artistic, cultural and social environment, addressing his relationships, his influence and his role within the art and architecture world.
Very richly illustrated, the work gathers hundreds of photographs, archival documents, plans, images of buildings and personal documents, many of which are published here for the first time.
A reference monograph, particularly interesting for collectors of architectural books, design and architectural photography.
