2 Vols. ill.; col.; plans.; maps. 35 cm. Mosche Safdie I -- We are listing this one along with text for Volumes 1 -- "This is the first volume of an architectural monograph on the work of architect Moshe Safdie. Born 1938 in Israel, received architectural degree in Canada and has architectural practices in Boston, Montreal, Toronto and Jerusalem. Best known for his 1967 "Habitat" project in Montreal, Quebec. This volume I covers his most famous projects from the beginning of his career up until the early 1990s. It also features four essays by architectural critics. Mosche Safdie II Volume Two features an essay by Safdie presenting his current thoughts on the significant issues facing architecture today. Accompanying it are texts by William Mitchell on the theme of a global practice responding to a wide range of varied local conditions, and by Thomas Fisher on Safdie's books, which hold as much interest and have been as influential as his buildings. Featured projects include the Salt Lake City Public Library, the Peabody Essex Museum and the US Institute of Peace, the Yad Vashem Holocaust Museum, the Rabin Center for Israeli Studies, and the new city of Modi'in in Israel; the Khalsa Heritage Memorial Complex in India; and the Guangdong Science Center and the Guangdong Children's Palace in China.
