Description:
This spare, elegant, and small-scale monograph of the entire oeuvre of San Francisco-based architect Stanley Saitowitz is the only volume of his work available. The book begins with a survey of Saitowitz's early career in his native South Africa, and also presents the architect's most recent projects, including his award-winning design for the New England Holocaust Memorial in Boston. Each project is illustrated with striking black-and-white photographs, followed by a special section including Saitowitz's personal thoughts and descriptions about his projects and architecture in general. It is interesting to learn, for instance, that he thinks of architecture less as a rarefied art form and more like cooking: "This establishes very real conditions," he notes. "No one thinks rotten food amusing." The icing on the cake is a postscript by Lars Lerup.
