New Book Surveys Work of Major Art World Architect Max Gordon in 1970s and 1980s. A new book, Architect for Art: Max Gordon (Marquand Books, 146 pp, hardcover, $40, ISBN: 978-0-615-39579-1) presents a rare opportunity to enter the art world of the 1970s and 1980s and witness firsthand how a master of architectural simplicity set the standard for the relationship between art and architecture. Max Gordon (1931–1990) became the go-to architect for spaces for contemporary art following the opening of his first major commission in 1985 – the Saatchi Gallery at 98a Boundary Road, London. Architect for Art: Max Gordon will be published on May 1, 2011.
