Synopsis
Richard Meier, Architect - Volume 4 comprehensively documents Meier's work since the publication of the previous volume in 1999. This extensively illustrated presentation, designed by renowned graphic artist Massimo Vignelli, vividly conveys the purity and power of Meier's unique and celebrated vision. Twenty-seven residential, commercial, and civic projects in all are featured, including the two residential towers in New York overlooking the Hudson River; the Yale University History of Art and Arts Library in New Haven, Connecticut; and the Jubilee Church in Rome. The development and significance of Richard Meier's work is discussed in two essays by the distinguished architectural historians and critics Kenneth Frampton and Joseph Rykwert.

Disappointing addition to the Meier series
12. November 2005
Format:Taschenbuch
I have to agree with the first reviewer. Something about this book just doesn't live up to the excellence of the earlier 3 volumes. Perhaps it's the heavy lineweights of some of the plans and elevations. Or perhaps it is the sudden introduction of dozens of computer renderings which are either too bland or overdone. On one hand they fall short of photorealism, while on the other hand these collages of blazing color/material/fake-looking-people detract from the architectural purity of Meier's work. Sadly the tiny images in the chronology at the back of the book reflect Meier's style better than the projects this book chooses to present.
That said, this book contains the Jubilee church, the two courthouses and a few private houses all of which are Meier at his best and are well documented with drawings and photos. That alone makes this book worth the purchase price. But if you're hoping for a book equal to or better than Vol 1 or 3, prepare to be disappointed.

Excellent book, not works though
7. Oktober 2005
Format:Taschenbuch|Von Amazon bestätigter Kauf
Meier's has passed his peak after Thomas Phiffer leaving his office and that's cleary illustrated in Vol.4. The 2 courthouse projects are the best among them while those apartments are just cheesy and really get me wonder why he even take those jobs. Yale Univ. project is simply diegrading, almost an intentional offense to one of P.R.'s best.(Is Yale that cheap?) That being said, Jubilee church is one of Meier's best works, which really save my faith in him.
The book is still edited well, except some of plan lineweight is on the heavy side. I highly recommend Vol. 1 & 3, with Vol.3 being simply astonishing.

Dissapointing as compared to the rest of Richard Meier series (1, 2, 3 and 5)

I've been a fan of Richard Meier design and I collected book 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5.
Modern all white buildings with sometimes a touch of stones facade accent has been my admiration of Richard Meier design including his attention on very fine details.
This book (Richard Meier 4) has not shown the quality of his work and his attention to details.
First of all, some line weight of those drawings are thick or did not have the correct line weight to represent his conceptual ideas.
Then some of those project has a totally different geometry or style as if it was not designed by him.
Perhaps this book has been published without him checking the final layout before printing.
Fortunately, book 5 has shown his quality back , similar to book 1 to 3.
