Sinopsis
Written by one of the greatest experts of modern Israeli art and architecture, this book provides a chronological overview of Israel's most significant architectural phases, offering a critical appraisal and a detailed reading of some of the most important works: the colonial architecture of the early 20th century, the foundation of Tel Aviv in the 1920s, and the post-war Brutalist, international phase. This gave way in the late 1960s to a more autonomous period of development, in which urban architecture, restoration and territorial planning acquired greater importance under the influence of a new generation of Israeli designers.This complete survey covers a range of themes including: West meets East, laboratory of the Modern movement, shelter and expansion, contemporary architecture in Israel, and designing the public space.
