Taschen’s Basic Art series features a great artist, covering his or her cultural and historical importance with a concise biography and accompanying illustrations. Ludwig Mies van der Rohe was one of the founding fathers of modern architecture and a hotly debated tastemaker of twentieth century aesthetics and urban experience. Famed for his motto, “Less is more," van der Rohe sought a stripped-down purity to architecture, showcased by the likes of the Seagram Building and Farnsworth House.
