N2  - "Wiel Arets, one of the most influential architects practicing today, is renowned for the transparent clarity and rigid geometry of his work. Austere but humane, his buildings evince a forceful presence yet retain a remarkable sensitivity to their urban context; Reputed for such diverse designs as the Academy of Art and Architecture in Maastricht, a skyscraping Amsterdam apartment tower, the corporate headquarters for the AZL Pension Fund, police stations in Boxtel and Vaals, and a series of spiritually rich residences (including his own), Arets is a rising star on the international scene and is revered in his native Holland as a modern master in the tradition of Louis I. Kahn."; "The first full-length monograph on his work, Wiel Arets features hundreds of stunning photographs by the acclaimed architectural photographer Helene Binet. It contains critical essays by architect and writer Xavier Costa; Anthony Vidler, dean of the Irwin S. Chanin School of Architecture at the Cooper Union in New York; New York-based architects and theorists Greg Lynn and Stan Allen; and Bart Lootsma, architectural critic and author of SuperDutch: New Architecture in the Netherlands."--BOOK JACKET
