Architecte français né le 11 mai 1801, diplômé de l'École des beaux-arts de Paris et ancien pensionnaire de la Villa Médicis de Rome, Henri Labrouste se distingue par son util…isation du fer, de la fonte et des charpentes métalliques. Récompensé par de nombreux prix d'architecture, notamment le Grand Prix de Rome (1824) et le premier prix pour la construction de l'hospice cantonal des aliénés de Lausanne (1836-1837), Henri Labrouste est retenu pour réaliser la construction de la nouvelle bibliothèque Sainte-Geneviève (1838-1850) située place du Panthéon à Paris. Il dirige également les travaux de restauration et d'agrandissement de la Bibliothèque impériale (1854-1875), rue de Richelieu également à Paris. Architecte des lieux de recueillement et de méditation, il se définit lui-même comme sensible à l'architecture du symbole et du détail. Il meurt le 24 juin 1875.

Add to basketSoft cover. Condition: Near Fine. 1st Edition. Henri Labrouste (1801-75) was perhaps one of the 19th century's most important yet, until recently, neglected architects. With very few exceptions, his small but exceptional body of work has been − remarkably − taken for granted. Brief mentions of his use of iron constru…ction in the celebrated polemical essays of Sigfried Giedion, his drawings included in the 1975 Museum of Modern Art Beaux-Arts show, a short exhibition catalogue published by Pierre Saddy in 1976, and two long essays published by the American architectural historian Neil Levine in 1977 and 1980, remain almost the sole contributions to his memory. This, for an architect who during his life was celebrated by even so relentless a critic of contemporary architecture as Viollet-le-Duc, and whose work inspired architects in the United States from McKim, Mead & White to Frank Lloyd Wright.
