Yet there is a significant difference between, for example, Richard Lippold’s Flight (1963), a custom-designed sculpture with a global flying theme created with architect Walter Gropius for the Vanderbilt Avenue lobby of what was once the Pan Am Building (ironically continuing to soar long after the grounding of its namesake airline and the building’s name change to MetLife), and the X-eyed behemoths created by the artist known as Kaws that recently invaded several Park Avenue lobbies. Focusing on the former case, Marin R. Sullivan’s recent book Alloys: American Sculpture and Architecture at Midcentury examines several significant midcentury projects in which architect and sculptor collaborated to realize both functional and glamorous modern...

That books should be reduced to tree compost in the ruins of the building that once housed them is particularly disturbing for those of us who think of books as embodying the world’s culture, knowledge, and imagination. It is a shock and a reminder of the fragility of what we value. This picture showing the horror of a library that has literally gone to seed comes from Andrew Moore’s Detroit Disassembled (2010), one of a number of photo books published in the past two decades that examine the decline and fall of the great structures of Detroit.1 Along with Moore’s powerful photography, Orvell presents the work of other photographers of Detroit’s ruination, including Yves Marchand and...

The keystone frieze was used prominently in large-scale building in Rome and exemplifies how Roman architecture creatively combined Greek trabeated aesthetics with the structural potential of the arch. The keystone frieze discovered on Samothrace, however, predates by one and a half centuries examples known in Italy. This article queries whether flat relieving arches were more widely deployed in Greek architecture but have gone overlooked. Other early Hellenistic buildings on Samothrace tested the limits of stone spans and set the stage for structural innovation. The Stoa reveals a decisive transition between the relieving devices based on cantilevers used in fifth- and fourth-century BCE Athens and the wider adoption of plate-bande construction in late Republican Rome.","PeriodicalId":45734,"journal":{"name":"JOURNAL OF THE SOCIETY OF ARCHITECTURAL HISTORIANS","volume":"27 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134994470","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"艺术学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Analyzing the biographical significance of the project in Lutyens’s career and personal life during the 1920s, this essay interprets the prodigious miniature Edwardian mansion as providing an analog reality and a virtual escape for a publicly esteemed but privately insecure architect.","PeriodicalId":45734,"journal":{"name":"JOURNAL OF THE SOCIETY OF ARCHITECTURAL HISTORIANS","volume":"27 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134994466","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"艺术学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
