Accompanying publication for the exhibition at the Whitney Museum for American Art, New York, Sept. 21 - Jan 5, 2003.
This compact book pays tribute to John Hedjuk (1929-2000), one of the most original figures in American architecture and design.
Employing allegorical images of angels, animals, martyrs, and machines, these works explore themes of falls from grace, itinerancy, passage and transformation, and above all, architecture as sanctuari-for art, for culture, for enduring rituals, for the human spirit itself.
