He became world renowned for planning \nand buildingBrasilia, which was declared a World Heritage Site in 1987. \nIn 1988 he was awarded the Pritzker Prize. His buildings are deeply \nrespectful of the site and are characterized by an unmistakable, almost \nBaroque design impulse. This second and revised edition of \"Oscar \nNiemeyer: A Legend of Modernity\" has a new preface and an updated \nbiography and list of works. It contains essays that analyze the \nimportant and current aspects of Niemeyer's work, as well as texts by \nNiemeyer himself. Topics include the place of Niemeyer’s work in modern \nBrazilian architecture, his work as urban planner, the aspect of \nlandscape in his practice, and his influence on architecture in Germany.\n Niemeyer, who was highly prolific up until his death, is one of the \nmost productive architects in history with over 600 buildings to his \nname. He was considered the \"last giant of modern architecture.\" \n(Süddeutsche Zeitung)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n        \u003c\/div\u003e\n    \n    \n        \n            \u003cp\u003e     \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNew edition of the standard monograph of Niemeyer \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAn oeuvre spanning almost eight decades \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA\n concise, stimulating and attractively illustrated overview of the works\n of Oscar Niemeyer, underlining his relevance for contemporary \narchitecture\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Paul Andreas","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48278919938299,"sku":"9783038214489","price":52.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0779\/3917\/9771\/files\/9783038214489.jpg?v=1772488408","url":"https:\/\/indiepubs.com\/products\/oscar-niemeyer-9783038214489","provider":"IndiePubs","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
