"Barcelona, at the end of the twenties: Mies van der Rohe is commissioned to design the German contributions for the 1929 International Exhibition, one of them being the German Pavilion. Today, his brief for this building reads like a manifesto of modern architecture: a contemporary building, an imposing stage, a timeless work of art - an outstanding example of where the attempt to solve the puzzle of modern architecture took shape. Shortly before Germany embarks on a catastrophe for civilisation, a German architect creates a masterpiece of the avant-garde, an icon of modern architecture."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
