New York, I Love, French Book by Robert F. Wagner and Joyce Peterson, 1964

About the Item

New York Que J'aime (New York I love), a French book by Robert F. Wagner (New York Mayor). Text by Joyce Peterson, and Photographs by Peter Fink. New York is undoubtedly the most dynamic and exciting metropolis but also the most elusive. It is a world made of so many figures and different climates that the most subtle camera has not been able to give up, to this day, only fragmentary or false aspects. Here, for the first time, offered to those who know New York and those who dream of discovering it, this book proposes an "oblique projection." This new perspective is as varied as it is fascinating. Each individual has a homeland or race they belong to and can be both foreign or at home in this fabulous city. This is a beautiful coffee table art book. Features: Title: New York Que J'aime. Author: Joyce Peterson, Presented by Robert F. Wagner, photographs by Peter Fink. Hardcover book with dust jacket. Language: French. Numerous black-and-white and full-color photographs and illustrations. 132 pages. Dimensions: 9.44 in x 10.63 in (24 x 27 cm). Published in 1964 by Editions Sun a Paris. Good condition, with minor wear due to regular reading. Some tears on the dust jacket.

  • New Architectural Pleasures, French Book by George Pompidou Art Center, 1985
    By Centre Georges Pompidou
    Located in Atlanta, GA
    Nouveaux Plaisirs d'Architectures (New Architectural Pleasures), French book published by The National Center of Art and Culture Georges Pompidou in Paris, 1985. Les pluralismes de la Creation en Europe et aux Etats-Unis depuis 1968 vus a travers les collections du Deutsches Architekturmuseum de Francfort. (The Pluralisms of Creation in Europe and the United States since 1968 seen through the collections of the Deutsches Architekturmuseum in Frankfurt.) This first edition of the book was published on the occasion of the exhibition of the same name, co-produced with the Center de Création Industrielle and the Deutsches Architekturmuseum, presented from February 21 to April 22, 1985. This book takes up the outline of this exhibition, which presents a panorama of various architectural trends from 1968 to 1985 in Europe and the United States through the collections of the German Museum of Architecture in Frankfurt, inaugurated in 1984. It is also an extension of the Images et Imaginaires d'Architecture event presented at the Center Pompidou by the CCI in 1984. A set of two hundred original drawings, thirty-five models, and a few paintings and sculptures testify to a new plurality of research and the current proliferation of architectural creation. This panorama reflects through some forty projects (nearly half of which were finished), many recent currents, and not just postmodernism. The reader discovers, for example, representatives, side by side: - the rationalist movement, such as Giorgio Grassi...
