Peter Reed, associate curator of architecture and design at the Museum of Modern Art in New York, has edited this exhibition catalog for the exhibition of the same title (February 19 to May 19, 1998). Alvar Aalto (1898-1976), the subject of the exhibition and this accompanying catalog, is perhaps one of the most overlooked modern architects. In his work, Mr. Aalto sought to maintain both his Finnish heritage and native landscape, while infusing it with a modern sensibility. The title of the exhibition and catalog refers to his interest in dualities and opposites; he was especially adept at combining diverse qualities in one project. The exhibition includes examples of his well-known laminated wood furniture and the famous Savoy Vase of 1936, as well as project drawings and videotapes of actual building interiors.
