CHANDIGARH REDUX (SCHEIDEGGER) (HB)

Inspired by Ernst Scheidegger's book Chandigarh 1956, Austrian artist Werner Feiersinger travelled to the legendary capital of India's federal state Punjab to gather a pictorial account of the city's famous architecture today. This new book features some 300 of Feiersinger's photographs. With the artist's view and based on his own creative experience as a sculptor, he shows the expressive sculptural qualities of the buildings. This artistic approach clearly distinguishes this book from previous publications on Chandigarh, most of which are of merely documentary character.
