Hans Hollein

Hans Hollein, born in Vienna in 1934, is a fundamental figure in contemporary architecture. This volume presents, for the first time, the complete work of the artist-architect: architecture, design, exhibition design, art and critical work, from 1960 to 1988. The critical text by Gianni Pettena is preceded by an exhaustive interview with Hollein. Included are a biography, bibliography and an analytical complete list of Hollein's works. This is the English edition of the book.

This volume is published in conjunction with an exhibition presenting the radical architects and architect groups who emerged in Florence in the late 1960s. It was a period characterised by crisis in the city, which extended to the wider political and social tension occurring throughout Italy. The related writings, drawings, and projects produced by these seven actors - Archizoom, Remo Buti, 9999, Gianni Pettena, Superstudio, UFO, and Zziggurat - have influenced generations of architects, historians, designers, and artists around the world. For the first time, all of their theoretical and visual work has been compiled in a single publication, giving renewed insight into their movement.
