The Tate Modern in London made Herzog & Meuron famous all over
the world. The projects and structures they have built since then
are distinguished by the sensitive treatment of materials for which
the architects are renowned. In addition, these Pritzker Prizea
"winning architects have developed a topographical conception of
architecture that not only locates their designs in a larger
context but also frequently structures them as landscapes. In order
to represent them, the layout of volume 4 of the complete works has
been completely redesigned. The publication contains essays by the
architects themselves in which they situate their projects. The
structures presented include such icons of contemporary
architecture as the Prada store in Tokyo Aoyama and the Allianz
Arena in Munich, where the opening game of the 2006 Soccer World
Cup was played. Pathbreaking museum structures such as the
Schaulager near Basel, the Walker Art Center in Minneapolis, and
the De Young Museum in San Francisco continue the conversation
surrounding what constitutes a truly contemporary presentation of
modern art.
