Klappentext

Mit der Tate Modern in London wurden Herzog & de Meuron weltweit berühmt. Die Projekte und Bauten, die seither entstehen, zeichnen sich einerseits durch die Sensibilität im Umgang mit Materialien aus, für welche die Architekten bekannt sind. Andererseits entwickeln die Pritzker-Preisträger darin ein topografisches Verständnis von Architektur, das die Entwürfe nicht nur in einen weiteren Zusammenhang einordnet, sondern häufig selbst als Landschaften strukturiert. Für ihre Darstellung wurde das Layout von Band 4 des Gesamtwerkes grundlegend überarbeitet; Herzog & de Meuron situieren die Projekte in eigens verfassten Texten. Unter den vorgestellten Bauten sind Ikonen der zeitgenössischen Architektur wie der Prada Store in Tokyo Aoyama und die Allianz Arena in München, in der die Fussball WM 2006 eröffnet wurde. Wegweisende Museumsbauten wie das Schaulager bei Basel, das Walker Art Center in Minneapolis und das De Young Museum in San Francisco setzen den Diskurs über eine zeitgemässe Präsentation von Kunst fort.

Zusammenfassung
The Tate Modern in London made Herzog & de Meuron famous all over the world. The projects and structures they have built since then are distinguished by the sensitive treatment of materials for which the architects are renowned. In addition, these Pritzker Prizewinning architects have developed a topographical conception of architecture that not only locates their designs in a larger context but also frequently structures them as landscapes. In order to represent them, the layout of volume 4 of the complete works has been completely redesigned. The publication contains essays by the architects themselves in which they situate their projects. The structures presented include such icons of contemporary architecture as the Prada store in Tokyo Aoyama and the Allianz Arena in Munich, where the opening game of the 2006 Soccer World Cup was played. Pathbreaking museum structures such as the Schaulager near Basel, the Walker Art Center in Minneapolis, and the De Young Museum in San Francisco continue the conversation surrounding what constitutes a truly contemporary presentation of modern art. Covers all designs and structures on which planning began between 1997 and 2001 With roughly 2.000 color and black-and-white illustrations, plans, and sketches The indispensable reference work for everyone interested in Herzog & de Meuron
