Gene Summers: Art/Architecture, hardcover

The teachings of Mies van der Rohe and his respect for the effects of space and material has had a great influence on the American architect and artist Gene Summers. Thanks to the technology of the day and Summers' own creative talents, he was able to help transform Mies' visions into built structures. For 16 years Gene Summers was a close colleague of Mies, heading his office and working with him on many projects including the Seagram Building in New York, Bacardi's office buildings in Cuba and Mexico, and Krupps' offices in Essen. This volume is the first presentation of Gene Summers' architectural and artistic work, surveying the many areas which include wood and water colors where he was active. The book is in excellent shape with only a small tear on the dust cover (top right, back side) - please see the photos and let me know if you have any questions. Hi
