This monograph on the work of Austrian architect Carl Pruscha (born
1936) is divided into the three geographical areas into which his
life and legacy falls: the United States, Kathmandu and Vienna.
Following his study of architecture at the Academy of Fine Arts
Vienna, Pruscha spent the early 1960s at Harvard University's
Graduate School of Design, constantly in search of inspiration and
visions. An invitation by the UN to go to Nepal in 1964 enabled him
to establish himself there as a practicing architect, embarking on
various construction projects and the Kathmandu Valley Development
and Preservation Project. After returning to Vienna in 1978, he
became the head of the Academy of Fine Arts. The three sections in
this book are accompanied by photographic portfolios by Iwan Baan
and Hertha Hurnaus, numerous project documentations and a detailed
timeline.
