Known as much for his theoretical proposals as for his provocative buildings, Rem Koolhaas has become one of the most influential contemporary architects. The first monograph that AV devotes to the Dutch covers his latest period, focused on heritage, history and ecology, and presents buildings carried out by his Rotterdam office since 2000, the year Koolhaas picked up the Pritzker Prize. With an essay and twelve critical texts by Luis Fernández-Galiano, the monograph includes buildings completed by the studio over the last fifteen years: starting with the Prada Epicenter in New York and closing with the Fondazione Prada recently inaugurated in Milan, the issue also features emblematic buildings like the Dutch Embassy in Berlin, the Seattle Central Library, the Casa da Música in Porto or the CCTV in Beijing, and recent openings like De Rotterdam or the Garage Museum of Contemporary Art in Moscow. Furthermore, ten projects in three different continents – among them the Taipei Performing Arts Center, the Musée National des Beaux-Arts of Quebec or the Axel Springer Campus in Berlin – take stock of the growing international presence of the Rotterdam studio, which has set up offices also in New York, Hong Kong, Doha and Dubai.
