Requests:  0 Summary:  "Arranged in chronological order, the book's five sections and its conclusion offer a synthetic portrait of Mies's career and reception, spanning sixty years, two continents and two world wars. The text tells a continuous story, however, most chapters focus on a significant work (the Seagram building or the IIT campus), allowing for an in-depth presentation of photographs and drawings; other chapters focus on a specific event in Mies's life (such Mies's time as the head of the Bauhaus)."--publisher.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hawaii State Library Art, Music & Recreation 720.92 Mies van der Rohe Me Checked In Add Copy to MyList
