A celebration of Peter Eisenman's illustrious career as architect, thinker, author, and educator

Known for his architecture, writing, and teaching, Peter Eisenman (b. 1932) has shaped the field of contemporary architecture through innovative design and thinking. His works include single-family residences such as his "House" series (1968โ€“75) and cultural structures such as the Wexner Center for the Arts, Ohio (1989), and the Memorial to the Murdered Jews of Europe in Berlin (2005).

Both his writings and his buildings have integrated architecture with philosophy in a manner that is playful and evocative. Notes on Peter Eisenman brings together a distinguished group of architects and historians, teachers and students, and friends and colleagues to frame and explore Eisenman's many extraordinary contributions to the architectural discourse and to consider his legacy.
