Neuware -Als König Ludwig I. von Bayern am 20. März 1848 infolge seiner Affäre mit der Tänzerin Lola Montez zurücktrat, endete die ereignisreiche Regentschaft einer der facettenreichsten Herrschergestalten der Neuzeit. Im Jahr 2023 jährte sich diese Abdankung zum 175. Mal.Die Lebensleistung Ludwigs I. wird bisher stark aus dem Blickwinkel des heutigen Bayern bewertet. Der bayerische König regierte im 19. Jahrhundert aber nicht nur das Land an Main und Donau, sondern auch den Rheinkreis, das sogenannte linksrheinische Bayern mit der Hauptstadt Speyer. Ludwig I. selbst sprach mit Blick auf die Rheinpfalz von 'dem gesegneten Land'. Kann man deshalb von einer ebenso bedeutenden Rolle des Monarchen für die Pfalz wie für München und Bayern ausgehen Der Katalog zur Ausstellung König Ludwig I. - Sehnsucht Pfalz lädt dazu ein, den Spuren Ludwigs I. in der Pfalz zu folgen und dabei nachzuvollziehen, wie sehr dieser König die Identität des Landes und seiner Bewohner prägte. 136 pp. Deutsch

In this remarkable and gorgeously illustrated book, Neil Jackson presents a vibrant profile of the Los Angeles architect Pierre Koenig, who Time magazine said lived long enough to become “cool twice.” From the influences of Koenig’s youth in San Francisco and his military service during World War II to the Case Study Houses and his later award-laden years, Jackson’s study plots the evolution of Koenig’s oeuvre against the backdrop of Los Angeles—a city that both shaped and was shaped by his architecture.   The book is anchored by Jackson’s exciting discoveries in Koenig’s archive at the Getty Research Institute. Drawings, photographs, diaries, letters, lecture notes, building contracts, and university projects—many of which are published for the first time provide an expanded understanding of Koenig and additional context for his architectural achievements. An examination of Koenig’s Case Study Houses shows how his often single-minded and pragmatic approach to domestic architecture recognized the advantages of production housing and presciently embraced sustainable, ecologically responsible design. A new account of the Chemehuevi housing project in Havasu Lake, California, demonstrates the special role that learning and teaching played in the development of his architecture. Over his fifty-year career, Koenig not only designed iconic houses but also directed their restoration and curated their legacy, ensuring that his work could be seen and appreciated by present and future admirers of midcentury Los Angeles.

A leading proponent of the Case Study House program   There are few images of 20th century architecture more iconic than the nighttime view of Case Study House #22 set on its eagle’s-nest site high above the lights of Los Angeles. With his two innovative houses for the famous project of the Arts and Architecture magazine, American architect Pierre Koenig (1925-2004) became one of the leading figures of the Modern movement in America. While still a student of architecture, he designed and built his first exposed steel house in 1950, proving that the use of prefabricated materials could allow for spatial freedom in affordable houses. Koenig’s houses, like the Johnson House (1962) or the Oberman House (1962), are a direct response to Southern California’s extremely warm and dry climate. His work is deeply marked by his commitment to environmentally and socially responsible design. His houses have thus become characteristic of the spirit of a whole generation: they perfectly capture the excitement and optimism of the American postwar society.   About the Series: Each book in TASCHEN’s Basic Architecture Series features: an introduction to the life and work of the architect the major works in chronological order information about the clients, architectural preconditions as well as construction problems and resolutions a list of all the selected works and a map indicating the locations of the best and most famous buildings approximately 120 illustrations (photographs, sketches, drafts and plans)

192 Seiten Buch ist neu, aus priv. Vorbesitz, ungelesen. -----Inhalt: Arno Geiger hat ein tief berührendes Buch über seinen Vater geschrieben, der trotz seiner Alzheimerkrankheit mit Vitalität, Witz und Klugheit beeindruckt. Die Krankheit löst langsam seine Erinnerung und seine Orientierung in der Gegenwart auf, lässt sein Leben abhandenkommen. Arno Geiger erzählt, wie er nochmals Freundschaft mit seinem Vater schließt und ihn viele Jahre begleitet. In nur scheinbar sinnlosen und oft so wunderbar poetischen Sätzen entdeckt er, dass es auch im Alter in der Person des Vaters noch alles gibt: Charme, Witz, Selbstbewusstsein und Würde. Arno Geigers Buch ist lebendig, oft komisch. In seiner tief berührenden Geschichte erzählt er von einem Leben, das es immer noch zutiefst wert ist, gelebt zu werden.

There are few images of 20th-century architecture more iconic than the nighttime view of Case Study House #22. At its eagle’s nest promontory above Los Angeles, the building is a vision of streamlined glass and steel, its slick lines echoing the twinkling city boulevards below. With this and his other equally innovative build for the famous project of the Arts & Architecture magazine, American architect Pierre Koenig (1925–2004) became one of the leading figures of the Modern movement.While still a student of architecture, Koenig designed and built his first exposed steel house in 1950, proving that the use of prefabricated materials could allow for spatial freedom in affordable houses. Throughout his career, he would champion socially responsible design, as well as buildings that responded deftly and directly to the Southern California climate. Through windows, water, terraces, skylights, and glazing, his buildings optimized the rapport between inside and outside, while aiming for a simplistic purity of appearance.Through all of Koenig’s major projects, including the Johnson House (1962) and Oberman House (1962), this book introduces an architect who was pioneering in method and material and iconic of his time, as fueled by experimentalism as the postwar optimism of the age.
