Joseph Rykwert, recognized internationally for the quality of his
scholarshipIt is difficult to imagine the history of modern architecture
in Britain being written without reference to the work of Eldred Evans
and David Shalev. From 1967, when they won the international competition
for Newport High School, Evans and Shalev maintained a distinctive
presence as designers. Together they created a body of work that is
uniformly innovative, elegant and sensitive to place, and realised with
care, skill and intelligence. This new monograph documents their
remarkable oeuvre as it developed over six decades. Introduced by Joseph
Rykwert, the book includes critical commentaries by David Dunster,
Patrick Hodgkinson and others.
