First comprehensive monograph of the architects' work Spans six decades and includes all the architects' major buildings, including Tate St. Ives - awarded the Art Fund Museum of the Year 2018 Introduction by Joseph Rykwert, recognized internationally for the quality of his scholarship
It is difficult to imagine the history of modern architecture in Britain being written without reference to the work of Eldred Evans and David Shalev. From 1967, when they won the international competition for Newport High School, Evans and Shalev maintained a distinctive presence as designers. Together they created a body of work that is uniformly innovative, elegant and sensitive to place, and realised with care, skill and intelligence. This new monograph documents their remarkable oeuvre as it developed over six decades. Introduced by Joseph Rykwert, the book includes critical commentaries by David Dunster, Patrick Hodgkinson and others.
