Since its original publication in 1978, Delirious New York has attained mythic status. Back in print in a newly designed edition, this influential cultural, architectural, and social history of New York is even more popular, selling out its first printing on publication. Rem Koolhaas's celebration and analysis of New York depicts the city as a metaphor for the incredible variety of human behavior. At the end of the nineteenth century, population, information, and technology explosions made Manhattan a laboratory for the invention and testing of a metropolitan lifestyle -- "the culture of congestion" -- and its architecture.
"Manhattan," he writes, "is the 20th century's Rosetta Stone . . . occupied by architectural mutations (Central Park, the Skyscraper), utopian fragments (Rockefeller Center, the U.N. Building), and irrational phenomena (Radio City Music Hall)." Koolhaas interprets and reinterprets the dynamic relationship between architecture and culture in a number of telling episodes of New York's history, including the imposition of the Manhattan grid, the creation of Coney Island, and the development of the skyscraper. Delirious New York is also packed with intriguing and fun facts and illustrated with witty watercolors and quirky archival drawings, photographs, postcards, and maps. The spirit of this visionary investigation of Manhattan equals the energy of the city itself.
雷姆·庫哈斯,是當代歐洲著名的建築師和建築思想傢。在其早期的職業生涯中,它主要以一個叛逆的幻想傢的形象齣現。而後來,他在建築設計、城市規劃、建築思想研究及寫作諸領域均獲得瞭令人矚目的成就。
理想与非理性的揉杂搅拌出曼哈顿的都市主义。“网格首先是一种概念性的投机”。网格犹如笛卡尔的我思故我在构成了库哈斯理论现实的基石。曼哈顿始终围绕着网格这一投机理性萌生和发展的。这是曼哈顿的类型学。网格的强制性,或者称为区划法使得曼哈顿只能水平复制自己的基地。...
評分一部从rem眼中看出的纽约摩天大楼历史书。介绍了历史上影响纽约的几个重要的建筑和事件。也介绍了资本和商业文化的产物-摩天大楼的发展和纽约的规划。是必读的教科书。
評分这本书是对纽约市的纵向建筑历史的诙谐幽默的讲述,生动形象且带有美国好莱坞特有的叙述方式,对纽约尤其是曼哈顿街区的形成历史的叙述,第一次了解了库哈斯的文笔和翻译的水平,令人赞叹,以一种拟人的方式对这个制造现代建筑各种稀奇古怪的形式并将其推向世界的这种现代模式...
評分如题。 本来理论的东西就比较晦涩,唐的翻译建筑把这种晦涩呈指数倍扩大!让我在阅读的过程中频繁怀疑自己的智商!明明是中文,却看不懂! 好的著作需要更好的译者。 职业建筑师的理论书也需要职业建筑师来翻译,而不是理论家。
