The architect Mies van der Rohe is one of the most famous of the modern masters. His works are the point of debate for the achievements and failures of the modern movement. This book takes the unique approach of enlisting the works of one hundred artists whose work has in some way commented and engaged the constructions, words or images of the famous architect. It is from those artists that new and exciting interpretations of the architect are recorded. This collection of artists, which includes painters, sculptors, photographers, film makers, designers, cartoonists and other architects, creates a dazzling colorful bouquet of images. All of them are linked by a continuous essay from the author that establishes the background of each artist and the relevance to the ongoing debate on the values of one architect and all that he represents. The title 'Almost Nothing' comes from Mies himself in his description of the best of his own work. Where simplicity is merged with sophistication and the world is ordered anew.
