American Buildings and Their Architects: Volume 5: The Impact of European Modernism in the Mid-Twentieth Century (American Buildings and Their Architects)
Futurism, Art-Deco, the International Style, non-objective art, and other European-originated art forms radically changed the direction of American architecture in the twentieth century. Beginning with Rockefeller Center, the culmination of the Beaux-Arts tradition, Jordy examines in Volume 5 the influence of modern art on the architecture of George Howe, William Lescaze, Marcel Breuer, Ludwig Mies van der Rohe, Frank Lloyd Wright, and Louis I.
