Abstract

Perhaps more than any other architect practicing today, Peter Eisenman has made a career out of devising a dialectic of oppositions in architecture. With references to societal alienation and existing architectural forms, his work derives much from Friedrich Nietzsche, Noam Chomsky, and Jacques Derrida. He led the loosely knit group of architects known as "The New York Five" (which included John Hejduk, Michael Graves, Charles Gwathmey, and Richard Meier), who made an effort to introduce a theory and artistry of modernist architecture as rigorous as that of the European avant-garde. This is the first comprehensive single-volume overview ever published on Eisenman's buildings and projects, from his first work, House I (1960), to his most recent projects, currently under construction in Spain and Germany. The book includes all the projects Eisenman has created, with essays from international architects and critics, including Greg Lynn, Sanford Kwinter, and Stan Allen.Eisenman currently teaches at New York's Cooper Union and at Princeton University. He has designed a wide range of projects, including the Wexner Center at Ohio State University, which received a 1993 National Honor Award from the American Institute of Architects, and the Holocaust Memorial in Berlin, which opened in spring 2005.

Abstract

It is difficult to say which is the more impressive career accomplishment: to have generated an endlessly renewed trail of agitative hypotheses over a 30-year period, or to have eschewed nearly all the comforts of consolidation - and the inevitable complacencies - afforded by conventional, repeatable "successes" such as the production of "great" buildings or the development of a signature style. In both these respects, Peter Eisenman differs not only from other architechts of his own generation, but from nearly all other architects working today." "When Eisenman's work began in the early sixties, it was, and remains to this day, a primarily tactical enterprise: its force from the outset was drafted from that of the enemy - classicism - but was also turned aggressively against it... Eisenman's task has been to develop a practice that, to borrow an expression from Foucault and Nietzsche, would come from outside... There is not now, nor has there ever been, a fixable Eisenmanian alternative architecture; tactical space after all is made up of a series of seized "occasions," so that the momentary triumphs that punctuate its unfolding campaign are never - indeed cannot be - stored. Eisenman's practice is assembled and articulated in movement and in the spirit of movement; it operates through invasion, disruption, and the release of temporarily trapped forces into free motion and recombination.

Abstract

New technologies and new philosophical concepts have converted what was once whishful thinking and referred to disparagingly as paper ideas into a world suddenly full of exciting architectural forms. These new ideas, inspired also by science and the space industry, have filtered through to the worlds of business, sport, shopping and entertainment. This is not innovation for the sake of innovation but art and architecture based on carefully considered ideas that enhance and add visually to our experience of life today.
