Artists and architects have often been in collaboration. This relationship was not necessarily without conflict on the contrary, a productive tension and friction, an anxious alliance can often be found at the basis of their common endeavors. However, wherever art and architecture establish a common territory in the public arena, highly integrated schemes may result that are of particular appeal and quality. In recent years, the barriers between art and architecture have come down even further; while many artists are attracted to the spatial presence of architecture and its language and scale, contemporary architects also seek the inspiration of art and include artistic concepts into their designs. Great works of art/architecture have resulted from these cooperation's and this book explores them in nine chapters from 1914 up to the present, highlighting the most striking examples of these interdisciplinary activities.
