I am glad to share my book review about "Louisiana - Architecture and Landscape" (Louisiana - arkitektur og landskab) by M. Sheridan (2017), recently published in the peer reviewed research journal BAc Boletín Académico, the scientific journal on Contemporary Architecture of A Coruña School of Architecture.
The Louisiana Museum of Modern Art, an extension of an ancient 19th-century residence set in a splendid park by the Øresund´s shore in Denmark, represents a post-war Danish architectural master piece designed by architects Jørgen Bo and Vilhelm Wohlert. A set of extensions was carried out after its opening in 1958, preserving the original idea of the project: the cohesion of architecture, art and landscape, a comprehensive work of art whose lessons should be recovered and preserved in the “Anthropocene” era.
