The book L'Architecture moderne a l'Expo 58. Pour un monde plus humain (in seperate Dutch and French editions) . The editors of the publication are prof. Mil De Kooning and drs. ir.-architect Rika Devos, both with the department of Architecture and Urban Planning of the Ghent University. Expo 58, the first post-war World???s Fair, has hardly been dealt with in the historiography of modern design and architecture. This World???s Fair has been labeled as a signal to the corruption and popularization of modernist ideals and is considered to be the beginning of large-scale transformations and devastation in the centre of Brussels. Hardly the Atomic Style remains to be cherished,of which the Atomium today still appeals to the imagination of many. But Expo 58 also offered a sample card of the varying tendencies in the inter national architectural landscape of the fifties. The eighteen essays in this publication are written by architectural historians from Belgium and abroad and focus on the modern architecture at the fair. Apart from the editors, the other ontributors to the book are: Geert Bekaert (Belgium), Immo Boyken (Germany), Sibel Bozdogan (USA/Turkey), Bernard Espion (Belgium), Steven Jacobs (Belgium), Jola Gola (Poland), Michel Provost (Belgium), Sven Sterken (Belgium), Rostislav Svacha (Czech Republic) and Jonathan M. Woodham (UK). Their studies result from archival research and present unique visual material.An richly illustrated book, Text in French,
