Louis Sullivan

This volume is both a tribute to Sullivans poetic genius and a catalogue of all his graphic work. The authors discuss the social implications of Sullivans theories of architecture, with visual proof of his vision in illustrations of his work on paper and in three dimensions. A translation of 'Etude sur linspiration,' Sullivans seminal and heretofore unpublished credo in verse, is further testimony to his vision. Included is an illustrated catalogue of all extant Sullivan drawings, some never before published.
