The artless word: Mies van der Rohe on the building art

By Fritz Neumeyer

Mies van der Rohe's architecture has been well documented, yet his writings that contain the key to his thought and to understanding his work have been largely unexplored. From Mies' library - including his marginal notes - and from a body of writing that is surprisingly large for the self-described unwilling author, Fritz Neumeyer reconstructs the metaphysical and philosophical inquiry on which Mies based his modernism.
