520 |a Event-Cities 4 is the latest in the Event- Cities series from Bernard Tschumi, documenting recent built and theoretical projects in the context of his evolving views on architecture, urbanism, and design. -- 
520 |a In this collection, Tschumi introduces the "concept-form": a concept generating a form, or a form generating a concept, so that one reinforces the other. The concept may be programmatic, technological, or social. The form may be singular or multiple, regular or irregular. Concept forms act as organizing devices or common denominators for the multiple dimensions of programs and their evolution over time, and drive the projects featured in this book. -- 
520 |a Highlights include a media zone in Abu Dhabi, a museum and visitors' center in Alesia, France, a pedestrian bridge in La Roche-sur-Yon, France, and a master plan for a sprawling new city in the Dominican Republic. The book contains over twenty of the firm's recent projects, showcasing the most current and forward-looking designs of one of today's leading architectural practices. -- 
520 |a Bernard Tschumi is Principal of Bernard Tschumi Architects, New York and Paris. He was Dean of the Graduate School of Architecture, Planning and Preservation at Columbia University from 1988 to 2003. --Book Jacket.
