In this book, Sarah Williams Goldhagen dismantled myths about architect Louis I. Kahn and demonstrates that his work is grounded in deeply held political, social, and artistic ideals. Offering fresh interpretations of many of his important buildings and presenting new archival evidence about his ideas, Goldhagen shows how Kahn sought to rework modernism into a transformative architecture approprite for the postwar world of the 20th century. The book features 24 full-color plates.
