His buildings are deeply respectful of the site and are characterized by an unmistakable, almost Baroque design impulse. Niemeyer, who was highly prolific up until his death, is one of the most productive architect's in history and designed over 600 buildings. This second and revised edition of "Oscar Niemeyer: A Legend of Modernity" has a new prefa.
