Zaha Hadid fut une architecte révolutionnaire qui, malgré un succès critique certain, n’a presque rien pu construire pendant des années. Certains prétendaient même que ses projets audacieux et futuristes étaient irréalisables.
Au cours des dernières années de sa vie, les visions audacieuses de Hadid sont pourtant devenues réalité, marquant les villes et diverses structures d’un langage architectural unique et novateur, comme en témoignent le Centre d’art contemporain Rosenthal à Cincinnati, salué par le New York Times comme «le nouveau bâtiment le plus important d’Amérique depuis la guerre froide», le musée d’art contemporain MAXXI à Rome, l’opéra de Canton en Chine et le Centre aquatique de Londres pour les Jeux olympiques de 2012.
À
Avant sa disparition brutale en 2016, Hadid appartenait à l’élite de l’architecture mondiale. Elle était reconnue comme la première femme à avoir été récompensée à la fois par le prix Pritzker de l’architecture et par la médaille d’or de l’Institut royal des architectes britanniques (RIBA), mais surtout saluée comme une créatrice de formes nouvelles et la première grande architecte des années 2000.
Depuis ses premières constructions aux angles droits jusqu’à ses créations ultérieures aux lignes plus fluides, où planchers, plafonds, murs et mobilier participent à la forme générale, cette introduction de référence présente les principaux exemples de la méthode pionnière de Hadid. Autant artiste qu’architecte, elle a eu à cœur de lutter contre les usages dépassés et a créé son propre univers pour le XXIe siècle.

Paperback. Etat : Very Good. Zaha Hadid was a revolutionary architect, who for many years built almost nothing, despite winning critical acclaim. Some even said her audacious, futuristic designs were unbuildable. During the latter years of her life, Hadids daring visions became a reality, bringing a unique new architectural language to cities and structures as varied as the Rosenthal Center for Contemporary Art in Cincinnati, hailed by The New York Times as the most important new building in America since the Cold War; the MAXXI Museum in Rome; the Guangzhou Opera House in China; and the London 2012 Olympics Aquatics Centre. At the time of her unexpected death in 2016, Hadid was firmly established among the elite of world architecture, recognized as the first woman to win both the Pritzker Prize for architecture and the RIBA Royal Gold Medal, but above all as a giver of new forms, the first great architect of the noughties. From her early sharply angled buildings to later more fluid architecture that made floors, ceilings, walls, and furniture part of an overall design, this essential introduction presents key examples of Hadids pioneering practice. She was an artist, as much as an architect, who fought to break the old rules and crafted her own 21st-century universe. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged. N° de réf. du vendeur GOR008451158
