In spite of a longstanding interest in Duchamp, I always suspected that Loos was something more than simply the Duchamp of architecture; but how so? Considering aspects of his contribution, the present book offers makings of an answer. Not that Loos wasn?t iconoclastic; but his was the witty and knowing iconoclasm of the believer, on behalf of the great art of architecture. Against the commonplace of Loos as mere ironist, part of the history of architecture possibly only as a critical curmudgeon clearing the way to modernism rather than as building and advancing it, the following thematic essays take off from the assumption that as a practitioner Loos belongs as much to the history of art as any other great modern artist. 500 1$3VAN0134992$aAdolf Loos : the art of architecture$91780844 606 $aLoos, Adolf$3VANC036289$2AR 620 $aUS$dNew York$3VANL000011 620 $aGB$dLondon$3VANL000015 676 $a720.922$cArchitetti$v19 700 1$aMasheck$bJoseph$3VANV115440$0793717 712 02$aTauris$3VANV109155 791 02$aI.B.
