Sibyl Moholy-Nagy
Sibyl Moholy-Nagy (introduction): THE ARCHITECTURE OF PAUL RUDOLPH. NYC: Praeger Publishers, 1970. First American edition. Original edition by Verlag Gerd Hatje, Stuttgart, 1970. A fine hardcover book in full, decorated cloth in a near-fine dustjacket: in amazing shape for a white cover with shelf wear along the fore edges and trivial discoloration. Interior unmarked and very clean. Out-of-print. 8.75 x 10.5 hardcover unpaginated book with approx. 275 b/w illustrations and 4 color plates. Captions by Gerhard Schwab with comments by Paul Rudolph, one of the most inventive, versatile and controversial members of the post-World War II generation of American architects.
Rudolph was trained at the Alabama Polytechnic Institute, and at the Graduate School of Design at Harvard under Walter Gropius. His early work included some 80 modernist houses in Florida. In 1958, with a school building in Sarasota, the Jewett Arts Center at Wellesley College, Massachusetts, and a project for a new American Embassy in Amman, Jordan, to his credit, Rudolph was appointed Chairman of the School of Architecture at Yale University. At Yale he designed the Greeley Memorial Laboratory of the Institute of Forestry, and the controversial Art and Architecture Building. On leaving Yale in 1965, Rudolph moved his practice to New York.
