Kahn (1901-1974). It received the 2005 American Institute of Architects Twenty-Five Year Award honoring 'significant architectural landmarks...that have withstood the test of time'. This handsome volume, originally published for the Center's grand opening in 1977, is a timely reminder of the Center's architectural distinction.Contemporaneous photographs and an enlightening essay by Jules David Prown provide an account of the architecture, design, and circumstances of its commission and building. A new foreword by its current director, Amy Meyers, brings the celebration of the Center into the present day.
