PAUL ASHTON;ANDREW BROWN-MAY;PENNY CROOK;GRAEME DAVISON; LAILA ELLMOOS TRACY IRELAND;WAYNE JOHNSON; GRACE KARSKENS; SUSAN LAWRENCE; RICHARD MACKAY AM; ALAN MAYNE; PATRICK TROY AO. Exploring The Modern City: Recent Approaches To Urban History And Archaeology. Glebe, NSW: Historic Houses Trust of New South Wales ; Melbourne : Archaelogy Program, School of Historical and European Studies, La Trobe University, 2005. Â ¶ Distinguished historians and archaeologists met at the Museum of Sydney in May 2003 in a lively exploration of urban history and archaeology and their synergies and schisms. This is the book of the symposium. Its erudite chapters record recent research into the history, sociology and archaeology of modern cities. Given the dynamic state of urban history and archaeology in Australia it should come as no surprise that the book encompasses a wide diversity of opinions and approaches. Some contributors have sought to situate urban history within the broader project of writing Australian history.

Designed by Yoshio Taniguchi, the new Museum will reopen in midtown Manhattan in winter 2004-05 to coincide with its 75th anniversary. The 630,000-square-foot Museum will be nearly twice the size of the former facility, offering dramatically expanded and redesigned spaces for exhibitions, public programming, educational outreach, and scholarly research. But The Museum of Modern Art is not Taniguchi's first museum, though it is his first museum in the United States. The architect has been designing museums in his native Japan since 1978.~In celebration of the opening of the new MoMA building, the Museum is publishing this book about Taniguchi's museums--nine in all. They include the Tokyo National Museum, Marugami Museum of Contemporary Art, Nagano Art Museum, Ken Domon Museum of Photography, and Shiseido Art Museum. For the Higashiyama Kaii Gallery in Nagano, Taniguchi situated a display space for the works of painter Kaii Higashiyama next to a reflecting pool and garden. In the Toyota Municipal Museum of Art, built on the old castle site of Komoro City, Taniguchi expressed the history and distinct nature of the place by affording views to both the new city and the historic area. Finally, the Marugame Genichiro-Inokuma Museum of Contemporary Art, situated across from the city's railway station, was designed to include a plaza that connects the museum with the station. Taniguchi: Nine Museums will discuss the plans of each of these museums with an emphasis on The Museum of Modern Art's new building. Hardcover. ISBN: 0870706071.

	RILEY, TERENCE. Yoshio Taniguchi: Nine Museums. NY: The Museum Of Modern Art, Â ¶ The Museum of Modern Art is now in the midst of the largest building project in its history. Designed by Yoshio Taniguchi, the new Museum will reopen in midtown Manhattan in winter 2004-05 to coincide with its 75th anniversary. The 630,000-square-foot Museum will be nearly twice the size of the former facility, offering dramatically expanded and redesigned spaces for exhibitions, public programming, educational outreach, and scholarly research. But The Museum of Modern Art is not Taniguchi's first museum, though it is his first museum in the United States. The architect has been designing museums in his native Japan since 1978.~In celebration of the opening of the new MoMA building, the Museum is publishing this book about Taniguchi's museums--nine in all. They include the Tokyo National Museum, Marugami Museum of Contemporary Art, Nagano Art Museum, Ken Domon Museum of Photography, and Shiseido Art Museum. For the Higashiyama Kaii Gallery in Nagano, Taniguchi situated a display space for the works of painter Kaii Higashiyama next to a reflecting pool and garden. In the Toyota Municipal Museum of Art, built on the old castle site of Komoro City, Taniguchi expressed the history and distinct nature of the place by affording views to both the new city and the historic area. Finally, the Marugame Genichiro-Inokuma Museum of Contemporary Art, situated across from the city's railway station, was designed to include a plaza that connects the museum with the station. Taniguchi: Nine Museums will discuss the plans of each of these museums with an emphasis on The Museum of Modern Art's new building. Hardcover. ISBN: 0870706071.
