Galdelsonas, Mario and John Pastier. Introduction by Paul Goldberger. [Cesar Pelli] Cesar Pelli Buildings and Projects 1965-1990 ***SIGNED***
New York Rizzoli 1990 0847812618 First Edition Hardcover Fine in Fine dust jacket

Signed by the architect Cesar Pelli on the half title page, with an inscription to a collaborator, and dated March 1991. Tight, square book and and crisp dust jacket are like new. Pages are clean and free of marks, creases and writing. Known for his elegant, high-tech building designs, sculptural use of glass and brick, and the incorporation of patterns and color into the surfaces of minimalist structures, Pelli's approach to architecture is non-ideological in nature. His buildings synthesize modernist form and postmodernist intention to create works of a visual richness often associated with architecture of the past yet possessing the mark of their own age, expressive of contemporary materials and technology. This monograph spans the architect's career and his major built works, projects and commissions, 44 of which are illustrated. Architectural renderings, and photos. 288 pp. ; 4to 11" - 13" tall; Signed by Author
