u003cbu003eThe publication Lewerentz Fragments introduces new scholarship on the architect's motivations and compiles new essays from all the major scholars on his work, for the first time in one volume presenting both historical and critical perspectives.u003c/bu003eu003cbru003e u003cbru003e Through new essays, recently discovered archival material, photography, and drawings, the publication Lewerentz Fragments explores the architect's body of work spanning three-quarters of the twentieth century. Comprising writings from all the major scholars on Lewerentz' work, along with several new voices, this publication offers new insight into the context surrounding this architect's work. Rather than focusing on a single thesis, the book offers a diversity of insight from multiple cultural and professional perspectives. In addition, previously unpublished translations of interviews and dialogs among the architect and his contemporaries offer a voice to the 'silent architect' altering the traditional interpretations of the work and digging past the surface of what might be considered his philosophy of building. Rather than serving as an introduction to the architect's work, this volume provides detailed fragments as a deep and diverse dive into one of the most mysterious of Scandinavia's modern masters.u003cbru003e u003cbru003e Contributors: Johan Celsing, Patrick Doan, Nicola Flora, Jonathan Foote, Matthew Hall, Per Iwansson, Thomas Bo Jensen, Nathan Matteson, Enrico Miglietta, Paolo Giardiello, Hansjörg Göritz, Magnus Gustafsson, Mariana Manner, Anne-Marie Nelson, Gennaro Postiglione, Wilfried Wang, Ola Wedebrunnu003cbru003e u003cbru003e With Contributions of: Archival reproductions from the Swedish Centre for Architecture and Design (ArkDes), The Stockholm stadsarkiv, and The Malmö stadsarkiv.u003cbru003e Historical construction photos of St Peter's Church by Carl-Hugo and Lars Gustafssonu003cbru003e Photos of the newly constructed St Peter's Church by Ole Meyeru003cbru003e Previously unpublished archival photographs of Lewerentz' worku003cbru003e Translations of various archival documents and audio interviews with the architectu003cbru003e Current photography of the architect's work from a variety of photographersu003cbru003e u003cbru003e u003cbru003e Funding support:u003cbru003e Auburn University College of Architecture, Design & Constructionu003cbru003e Aarhus School of Architectureu003cbru003e DePaul University College of Computing and Digital Mediau003cbru003e The King Gustaf VI Adolfs fund for Swedish Cultureu003cbru003e The Peter and Birgitta Celsing Foundationu003cbru003e The University of Tennessee College of Architecture & Design
