Deyan Sudjic was born in London of Yugoslav parents. He divides his time between London, where he is architecture critic for the Observer and a visiting professor at the Royal College of Art, and Milan, where for many years he edited Domus, the international magazine of art, architecture and design. He was Director of the Venice Architecture Biennale in 2002 and is author of the much-praised 100-Miles City, the best-selling Architecture Pack, and monographs on John Pawson, Ron Arad and Richard Rogers.
An exploration of the intimate and inextricable relationship between architecture, power, money and politics in the twentieth century. How and why have presidents, prime ministers, mayors, millionaires and bishops come to share such a fascination with architecture? From Blair to Mitterrand, from Hitler to Stalin to Saddam Hussein, architecture has become an end in itself, as well as a means to an end. This is a book of genuine timeliness, throwing new light on the aspirations and the motivations of the rich and powerful across the world - and on the political nature of contemporary culture.

评分试想一天地铁不再拥挤嘈杂,乘客可以在奔波时享受课堂般的开放对话,社会将以何等增速发展。 人们的交流需要“事件”作为契机,交流的需求者往往需要主动发起事件。事件在拉近人际距离方面有着难以忽视的神奇功效,尤其体现在打破陌生人间习俗性的冷漠坚冰时:想象中充满竞争...
评分《权力与建筑》这样的翻译,再加上封面添上尼采的警句——“建筑是一种权力的雄辩术”,让人很容易把尼采的《权力意志》误以为是这本书的理论支持。我在网上买的这本书,看着封面图片和目录,在看书之前都以为是理论加分析的建筑书。但是当我草草翻过书中提到建筑过程中的...
