Klappentext zu „A Question of Qualities: Essays in Architecture “
Jeffrey Kipnis¿s writing, thinking, and teaching casts architecture as both an intellectual discourse and a lived, affective experience. His essays on contemporary architects are less about making critical judgments than about explication, exegesis, and provocation. In these eleven essays, written between 1990 and 2008, he considers projects, concepts, and buildings by some of the most recognized architects working today, with special attention to the productions of affect. Kipnis¿s deft integration of art, critical theory, philosophy, pop culture, classical music, and science¿what the volume¿s editor Alexander Maymind calls ¿ancillary material¿¿into a rigorous architectural theory and criticism makes A Question of Qualities an exemplar of a new way to write about architecture.

Rezension zu „A Question of Qualities: Essays in Architecture “
¿In this collection of seminal texts, Kipnis reminds us once again why his unique ability to focus our close attention to the specifically architectural qualities of buildings and the intellection that produces them makes him the most important architectural critic practicing today. His utterly distinctive voice pulses with the vitality of contemporary culture until the language of each essay constructs architectural qualities of its own.¿ Sylvia Lavin, Director of Critical Studies and MA/PhD Programs, UCLA Architecture
