An ideal book for architecture aficionados, Architects on Architects captures the soul, inspiration, and majesty of architecture. The book, with Foreword by Paul Goldberger, is a study of how the world's greatest architects influenced the work of others, and why, told in the architect's own words. Traveling and looking at so many buildings, both new and old, I find this book a wonderful companion. The contributors discuss the career-inspiring achievements of their mentors; designers of some of the most famous structures on earth. They delve into their own design philosophy, and how the genius of others affected their careers, their goals, as well as their lives. Each original essay is beautifully illustrated with photographs of both the architect's work and that of his mentor, providing a visually forum for comparison and learning. The essays: Diana Agrest on Sergei Mikhailovich Eisenstein Susan Gray (New York, NY) is an architectural photographer and writer who has worked with many large corporations and magazines.
