Lavishly illustrated and beautifully produced, the catalogue raisonne spans Smith's influential intellectual and creative pursuits in the field. It is the first volume to offer a complete record of Smith's architectural output and is the most comprehensive documentation to date of Smith's built and unbuilt works. Combined with Against Reason- Tony Smith, Architecture, and Other Modernisms, these two books devoted to architecture are part of the Tony Smith Catalogue Raisonne Project, which presents Smith's complete oeuvre in sculpture and architecture, while positioning his transdisciplinary practice in dialogue with contemporary voices in art and architecture.Smith often reflected in writing on art, architecture, literature, and culture, yet his writing was not published like many of his contemporaries. This book presents never-before-published writings by Smith. The texts complement architectural projects presented in the catalogue raisonne while serving as a core sample of the voluminous writing in the Tony Smith Archives yet to be studied by future researchers.
