Niemeyer's legacy, one of the most far-reaching influences on 20th- and 21st-century architecture, is recognized and honored in Assouline's comprehensive and lavish exploration of Niemeyer's 104-year life and career.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e \u003cbr\u003eNiemeyer rose to prominence alongside Le Corbusier but ultimately strayed from the hard, straight lines of traditional modernism. Instead, he has forged a parallel track that mimics the crescendos and denouements of human feelings through plunging curves, graceful arcs and sensual lines. By using reinforced concrete, he elevates the everyday to the sublime. Original sketches and photographs, as well as contributions from Tadao Ando, ​​​​Santiago Calatrava, Frank Gehry and Zaha Hadid, make Oscar Niemeyer a testament to the fantastic artistic journey he has taken over the last century.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e White gloves and an iconic canvas tote bag are included with every purchase of Assouline's ultimate collection. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\" class=\"tw-data-text tw-text-large XcVN5d tw-ta\" data-placeholder=\"Traduction\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003e \u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eDetails\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv data-mce-fragment=\"1\" class=\"details\"\u003e\n\n\u003cul data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e 168 pages\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e 118 illustrations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e In English language\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e Released in May 2008\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e L 39 x W 47 x D 7 cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e Limited edition hand-bound in a linen clamshell case\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n \u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eISBN: \u003cspan\u003e9782759402939\u003c\/span\u003e\n\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e 9.07 kg \u003cbr\u003e\n\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv data-mce-fragment=\"1\" class=\"details\"\u003e\n\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\" dir=\"ltr\" data-placeholder=\"Traduction\"\u003e \u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eAuthor\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\" dir=\"ltr\" data-placeholder=\"Traduction\"\u003e Michael Kimmelman is chief art critic at The New York Times and author of The Accidental Masterpiece: On the Art of Life and Vice Versa (Penguin, 2005) and Portraits: Talking with Artists at the Met, the Modern, the Louvre, and Elsewhere (Random House, 1998).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\" dir=\"ltr\" data-placeholder=\"Traduction\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Photographer Matthieu Salvaing has been traveling the world for ten years, drawing inspiration from design, fashion and architecture.
