Sinopsis
The visionary architecture of Lebbeus Woods is concerned with the cultural regeneration of society, directly confronting urban landscapes and social and political conditions presently undergoing radical transformations. His projects, including the recent Berlin-Free-Zone, Zagreb-Free-Zone and Double Landscape, Vienna, propose architecture as an instrument of social transformation. For him it is an instrument of both individuality and community and in this contradiction, he finds an energy for change at once ironical and affirmative. Freedom for the individual and therefore society means not just the lack of stylistic constraints but a questioning of the constraints imposed by function and structure, the breaking down of barriers and the evolution of new types of space and structures - the free Space Structures visualized in his graphic work.

Hardcover. Condición: Fine. Estado de la sobrecubierta: 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.
