Denise Scott Brown. in Other Eyes: Portraits of an Architect

50 years Learning from Las Vegas

From
the bustle of Johannesburg to the neon of Las Vegas, Denise Scott
Brown's advocacy for "messy vitality" has transformed the way we look at
the urban landscape. Unconventional, eloquent, and with a profound
sociopolitical message, Scott Brown is one of our era's most influential
thinkers on architecture and urbanism.

The anthology Denise Scott Brown. In Other Eyes - marking the 50th anniversary of the seminal treatise Learning from Las Vegas
- paints a portrait of Scott Brown as seen through the eyes of leading
architectural historians and practitioners. It features new scholarship
on　her education on three continents, her multidisciplinary teaching,
and her use of urban patterns and forces as tools for architectural
design - a practice documented in a new comment by Scott Brown, noting
that sometimes "1+1>2."

With contributions by Mary
McLeod, Joan Ockman, Sylvia Lavin, Stanislaus von Moos, Jacques Herzog,
Robin Middleton, and Denise Scott Brown, among others A comprehensive portrait of one of contemporary architecture's most significant personalities
