{"product_id":"marcel-breuer-building-global-institutns","title":"Marcel Breuer Building Global Institutns","description":"Marcel Breuer (1902-1981) is celebrated as a furniture designer, teacher, and architect who changed the American house after his emigration from Hungary to the U.S.A. in 1937. More recently historians, architects, and-with the reopening in New York of the great megalith of his Whitney Museum as the Met Breuer-a larger public are gaining new insights into the cities and large-scale buildings Breuer planned. Often seen as a pioneer of a \"Brutalist modernism\" of reinforced concrete, Breuer might best be understood through the lens of the changing institutional structures in and for which he worked, a vantage developed in the fresh approaches gathered here in essays by a group of younger scholars. These essays draw on an abundance of newly available documents held in the Breuer Archive at Syracuse University, now accessible online.","brand":"MediaPlace","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57316154769790,"sku":"NW9783037785195","price":25.1,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1379\/1261\/files\/9783037785195.jpg?v=1780322721","url":"https:\/\/mediaplace.com\/products\/marcel-breuer-building-global-institutns","provider":"MediaPlace","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
