Beschreibungen/Notizen

• The book "The Lost, Last Words of Mies van der Rohe: The Lohan Tapes from 1969" is an extremely valuable legacy of one of the greatest modern architects of the twentieth century - Mies van der Rohe. It comprises the analysis, notes and interpretation of recorded conversation between the famous architect and his grandson Dirk Lohan, including the original transcript recorded by the tape recorder in the last weeks of Mies' life. It was recorded during the summer of 1969 and now published in its entirety for the very first time. This is a unique opportunity to gain a more detailed insight into the architect's private life - the way of thinking, philosophical principles and inherent humor will rarely leave anyone indifferent, even those who are not fond of Mies' architectural solutions.
