Synopsis
This anthology of writings by the architectural critic Kenneth Frampton brings together his most influential essays from the last 35 years. The essays focus on twentieth-century architecture, dealing with diverse themes and movements, built works and the architects responsible for these buildings.
The writings are presented in clear chronological order within three sections - Theory, History, and Criticism - which together serve to identify modern architecture in its broader cultural and historical context. The compilation assimilates early critical reviews from the 1960s and 70s analysing contemporary buildings, as well as lengthier pieces covering architecture and the ideological circumstances in which buildings are produced.
As a collection, Labour, Work and Architecture is an essential document in the historiography of twentieth-century architecture, composed by a highly respected and readable scholar committed to the nuanced understanding and real improvement of our built environment.

Hardcover. Etat : new. Hardcover. This is an anthology of writings by the architectural critic Kenneth Frampton. It brings together 25 essays and writings from the 1970s to 2001, which focus on 20th-century architecture, dealing with themes and movements in architecture, built works and the architects responsible for these buildings. The essay subjects range from Russian Constructivism to the Case Study houses of West-Coast America. A number of individual architects and buildings are also explored, such as Le Corbusier, Adolf Loos, Louis Kahn, Hans Scharoun's Philarmonie in Berlin, the Leicester Engineering Building by Stirling, Kahn and Gowen, the Ford Foundation Headquarters by Roche and Dinkeloo Associates, and contemporary Swiss architectural practices. Labour, Work and Architecture is an anthology of writings by the renowned architectural critic, Kenneth Frampton. The book brings together 25 essays and writings from the last thirty years, which focus on twentieth-century architecture, examining themes and movements in architecture, built works and the architects responsible for these buildings. It presents a rich body of written work, serving to situate recent architecture into its broader historical context, by an internationally influential author committed to the understanding and improvement of our built environment. The essays are presented in chronological order, within three distinct sections — Theory, History and Criticism — beginning with 1964 to the present day. Most have been published before in various journals and books; a few will be edited or expanded for this book and this is the first time Frampton's writings have been published in one self-contained volume. The book will become a key resource on twentieth architecture by a highly-respected, and highly readable, scholar as well as a mentor to a younger generation of architectural writers and architects. This anthology of writings contains twenty-five essays by Kenneth Frampton from 1964 to the present day. The predominant focus of the collection is twentieth-century architecture; Frampton examines a variety of themes and movements in architecture, built works and the architects responsible for these buildings. The essay subjects range from Russian Constructivism to the Case Study houses of West coast America. A number of individual architects and buildings are also explored, such as Le Corbusier, Adolf Loos, Louis Kahn, Hans Scharoun's Philmarmonie in Berlin,the Leicester Engineering Building by Stirling Kahn & Gowen, the Ford Foundation Headquarters by Roche and Dinkeloo Associates, and contemporary Swiss architectural practices. The essays are presented in chronological order, within three distinct sections — Theory, History and Criticism — beginning with 1964 to the present day. They reveal both a certain continuity and a changing ideological stance: this transformation will be revealed in the shifting emphasis of the subject matter, yet the author's overall position remains constant. In this respect, the book is a sustained critique on twentieth architecture by a highly-respected, and highly readable, scholar as well as a mentor to a younger generation of architectural writers and architects.
