Architecture for the Arts - Brave Architecture: the De Santos & Sicardi Galleries

Architecture for the Arts De Santos & Sicardi Galleries is a unique book that details the thinking and design process behind two, multiple award-winning and frequently published, commercial art galleries. This book explores the numerous counterpoints between the two projects, their relevance as part of Houstons distinctive architectural landscape, and the architects commitment to creating space to view and celebrate art. This volume also explores the relationship between the permanent and the temporary, the built and the displayed, the design process and the buildings function: a true voyage into the poetry that starts with early design concepts and continues through the use of these two celebrated projects.
