PHLF and the Heinz Architectural Center, Carnegie Museum of Art, are hosting an Author’s Reception to celebrate the release of Pittsburgh Architecture in the Twentieth Century: Notable Modern Buildings and Their Architects (PHLF 2013), by Albert M. Tannler.
The reception is free and open to the public. Mr. Tannler will present brief remarks at 6:00 p.m. in the Carnegie Museum of Art Theater. A reception will follow in the foyer; books will be available for purchase at a special introductory offer ($14.00 plus sales tax; PHLF and CMA members receive a 10% discount).
This is the first guidebook devoted solely to twentieth-century buildings in metropolitan Pittsburgh. The 294-page book is illustrated with more than 300 photos (281 color, 40 b/w).
Pittsburgh Architecture in the Twentieth Century was funded through a lead grant from the Sports & Exhibition Authority of Pittsburgh and Allegheny County, major grants from The Fine Foundation and Alfred M. Oppenheimer Memorial Fund of The Pittsburgh Foundation, and donations from 108 PHLF members and friends. Thank you all!
