My Book - Svein Tønsager - Cracks, Hinges & Xfoliations has a large collection of drawings, works, projects and articles by the dynamic and visionary Norwegian architect Svein Tønsager, who died in 2006, 62 years old. In his work as an architect and his teaching at the Aarhus School of Architecture, he was the driving force behind the creation of a wide international network of architects who constantly explored the possibilities of architecture through exchanges, lectures, debates, dialogues and friendships. This network boasted many international names across generations, architectural schools and professional positions. At the Aarhus School of Architecture, Svein Tønsager was an important personality, not only in terms of teaching, but also in the school's development and its international presence. The book is a tribute to Svein's tireless work as an architect, teacher and Danish hub in an international network of architectural personalities.
