Las Vegas Studio. Images from the Archive of Robert Venturi and Denise Scott Brown English

Since it was first published in 1972, Learning from Las Vegas has become a classic in the theory of architecture and one of the most influential architecture texts of the twentieth century. The treatise by Robert Venturi, Denise Scott Brown, and Steven Izenour (1940–2001) enjoys a reputation as a signal work of postmodernism in architecture and urban planning. Yet none of the book’s editions have ever featured high-quality color images of the field research the authors conducted to illustrate their argument. Las Vegas Studio is the first book ever to present these significant photographs in large, full-color reproductions.
Now available in paperback, this unique book features these iconic images and film stills, alongside essays by Swiss scholars Stanislaus von Moos and Martino Stierli that explore how the pictures contemplate the phenomenon of the modern city. Also included is a discussion by curator and critic Hans Ulrich Obrist with Dutch architect Rem Koolhaas and Swiss artist Peter Fischli that speaks to the strong and lasting influence these images still have on contemporary art and movies.
A unique opportunity to experience the full intent and import of the Learning from Las Vegas project, Las Vegas Studio continues to appeal to architects, architectural historians, and scholars alike.
1968 machten die amerikanischen Architekten Robert Venturi, Denise Scott Brown und Steven Izenour Las Vegas zum Gegenstand ihrer Forschung. Ihr darauf basierendes Buch Learning from Las Vegas gilt bis heute als Schlüsseltext des Urbanismus im 20. Jahrhundert. Eine faszinierende Auswahl an Bildern und Filmstills, welche die Studie illustrieren, wurde 2008 im seit längerem vergriffenen Buch «Las Vegas Studio» erstmals überhaupt grossformatig in Farbe und bester Druckqualität veröffentlicht. Nun wird diese, als eines der schönsten Schweizer Bücher ausgezeichnete, grosszügig illustrierte Hommage an Las Vegas in einer broschierten Ausgabe neu aufgelegt.
