Emilio Ambasz reinvents the universe by creating urban complexes
that rise like volcanoes of glass, works of architecture set in natural
landscapes and gardens that turn into artificial mechanisms of the city,
in a range of spatial and urbanistic proposals of absolute originality.
The
monograph documents the creative world of this Argentine-born
American-based architect-designer from the crystalline complex of the
San Antonio Botanical Center in Texas (1982) to the transparent
container (Aqua Dove Mineral Water Bottle, 1987) and the opaque and
granite office tower in Phoenix (1998), and focuses on his more recent
works.
