21c is hosting a party to celebrate the release of a book about the architect behind the museum hotel’s design next Thursday November 13, 2008.
We’re excited to play host to the woman behind 21c’s design as she celebrates the release of her new book, DEBORAH BERKE. Written by Tracy Myers, this release marks the first time ever Yale University Press has published a book on a contemporary architect and it offers readers provocative insight into the process behind Berke’s genius. Whether one peruses the nearly 250 images or dives head-first into the engaging essays, the book reveals how Berke conceives of and approaches her projects- both those that have made her famous and the many that the public has never seen before.
Join us for a book-signing with Berke on Thursday, November 13th. Refreshments will be served and books will be available for purchase for $65 each. As an added treat, book-signing attendees will be allowed a rare glimpse in the private owner’s apartment atop 21c. With its sweeping views of downtown and stunning collection of contemporary art, this space truly showcases some of the finest work of the modern genius that is Deborah Berke.
Ooooooh, a glimpse of the private owner’s apartment certainly got my attention. However thanks to David Byrne I’ve already had a small glimpse of it. That doesn’t mean I don’t want to see the rest of it though.
