	FARQUHARSON, ALEXANDER (CURATED BY) The Magic Hour: The Convergence of Art and Las Vegas Ostfildern-Ruit, Hatje Cantz. 2002, First Edition. (ISBN: 3775711538) Hard Cover , 4to - over 9¾" - 12" tall. Exhibition Catalogue, Pictorial boards, 212 pp. col. illus.; 28 cm. Exhibition held at Neue Galerie Graz am Landesmuseum Joanneum, Austria. AS NEW. OVERSIZE! No priority/air, except by special arrangement. "Entertainment seems to have become a fetish, a matrix for all aspects of life. Art, too, is catching up with the forms of the entertainment industry, is close at its heels so-to-speak. The establishment of the Guggenheim Las Vegas and Hermitage- Guggenheim museums by Rem Koolhaas in Las Vegas may be considered the newest radical phase in this development: the inclusion of art into the entertainment complex is obviously an indicator that, for the entertainment industry, art has become compatible. Is Las Vegas then, in a paradoxical turn of the tables, to become the capital of a future culture industry? In The Magic Hour, renowned authors in the field analyse the fundamental aspects contributing to the uniqueness of this place, taking a look at its impact on art. Las Vegas acts like a magnifying glass opening up a window onto future practices and pitfalls that may befall art world-wide, and its position in our society of spectacles." - Publisher.

	VENTURI, ROBERT, AND BROWN, DENISE SCOTT, AND IZENOUR, STEVEN Learning from Las Vegas: The Forgotten Symbolism of Architectural Form Cambridge, MA, MIT Press. 1977, Revised Edition.

Pen mark on flyleaf & underlining on half a dozen pages, otherwise tight & clean. "Learning from Las Vegas created a healthy controversy on its appearance in 1972, calling for architects to be more receptive to the tastes and values of 'common' people and less immodest in their erections of 'heroic,' self-aggrandizing monuments. This revision includes the full texts of Part I of the original, on the Las Vegas strip, and Part II, 'Ugly and Ordinary Architecture, or the Decorated Shed,' a generalization from the findings of the first part on symbolism in architecture and the iconography of urban sprawl. (The final part of the first edition, on the architectural work of the firm Venturi and Rauch, is not included in the revision.) The new paperback edition has a smaller format, fewer pictures, and a considerably lower price than the original. There are an added preface by Scott Brown and a bibliography of writings by the members of Venturi and Rauch and about the firm's work." - Publisher. Good.
