| Zusammenfassung: | Gavriel D. Rosenfeld's Building after Auschwitz is a fascinating and stimulating book that will interest not only students of the Holocaust but also students of architectural history and Jewish culture in America and Europe. Several of the world's most famous architects in recent decades, including Peter Eisenman, Daniel Libeskind, and Frank Gehry, come from Jewish backgrounds; Rosenfeld strives to reveal the influence on their work of their Jewishness and their sense of the tragic history of Europe's Jews. The book is richly illustrated, with 175 images—including many in color—of buildings and drawings. |
