Reckoning with Colin Rowe
While the first half of the 20th century in architecture was, to a large extent, characterized by innovations in aesthetics (accompanied by succinct and polemical manifestoes), the post-war decades saw emerge a more refined and intellectual disciplinary framework that eventually metamorphosed into the highly theory-focused moment of the 'postmodern'. Colin Frederick Rowe (1920 - 1999) was a leader of this epistemic shift due to his aptitude to connect his historical and philosophical erudition to the visual analysis of architecture.This book unites ten different perspectives from architects whose lives and ideas intersected with Rowe’s, including:Robert MaxwellAnthony VidlerPeter EisenmanO. Mathias UngersLéon KrierRem KoolhaasAlan ColquhounRobert SlutzkyBernhard HoesliBernard TschumiWith an introduction by Emmanuel Petit and a postscript by Jonah RowenIn their critical assessment of a key 20th century formalist, these renowned architects reflect on how their own positions came to diverge from Rowe’s. Reckoning with Colin Rowe is a thought-provoking discussion of key schools, places, concepts and people of architectural theory since the post-war years, illustrated with over forty beautiful black and white drawings and photographs.

Collected Poems
The collected poems of William Rowe, containing works written between 1992 and 2016. Afterword by Sean Bonney. This book is concerned with the shimmering of the real, where this carries the truth of the world we're inside of. The concern is political. It includes the need for the destruction of bourgeois reality, the suspension of their law, their forms, and the opening of a space for a new reality. There's pain and suffering in this but also joy.
