The projects featured in Close to Home are within a 15-mile radius of where Louisville architect Michael Koch was born, raised, and has practiced for almost forty years. Educated at the University of Kentucky School of Architecture during the Dean Anthony Eardley era, where he was taught by Guillermo Julian de la Fuente, Peter Carl, Stephen Deger, Judith DeMaio, Clyde Carpenter, and Herb Greene, Koch has created a body of work in the Ohio River Valley that is site-specific and expressive, translating Kentuckys regional idioms into a vibrant modernism. From airy houses that take advantage of Louisvilles Olmstead-designed parks and local materials, to structures that are strikingly adapted to the Ohio River floodplain, to church-inspired metropolitan projects, Kochs buildings are a memorable part of the citys landscape. Close to Home presents the award-winning achievements of his firm Michael Koch and Associates Architects, and introduces readers to the simple elegance of his designs and meaningful contributions he has made to the architecture of Kentucky.

En 1957, le grand photographe Brassaï, l'ami d'Henry Miller, n'a jamais rendu visite à l'Amérique ! Pressé, cette année-là, par le magazine Holiday, qui lui donne carte blanche afin de photographier New York et la Louisiane, Brassaï se décide enfin. S'essayant au petit format et à la couleur, il ramènera de ce séjour de deux mois des images rendant compte de la vie urbaine intense propre aux grandes villes américaines, si différentes de son Paris de prédilection. Fidèle à la sensualité de son regard, toujours fasciné par les femmes, jouant de son humour aux accents surréalistes, Brassaï réalise un reportage totalement inédit, que ce livre et l'exposition qui l'accompagne nous font découvrir pour la toute première fois, en un vrai bonheur visuel jubilatoire.
