This installment of the Oscar Riera Ojeda Masterpiece Series focuses on Fort 137 by Daniel Joseph Chenin. Set in a remote location to the west of Las Vegas, Nevada, the brief was for a residence that established a direct connection to its surroundings in a sustainable, environmentally-friendly manner using locally-sourced materials as much as possible. In response, Chenin produced an open structure divided into three different levels with each volume carefully placed to be read as a series of rock masses and also to protect against the harsh sun and wind while also offering uninterrupted views of the surrounding landscape. This book provides a privileged glimpse into the conception and execution of this superlative structure with a text by the renowned architectural critic Aaron Betsky, an interview with the architect, sumptuous photography by Stetson Ybarra, XXXX and XXXX, illuminating drawings, diagrams and layouts. An homage to the forts built when the area was first being settled, the building sits resplendently alone in the tranquility of the landscape: truly a modern masterpiece.

- 20 original drawings - The beauty of Venice and Sicily captured with exquisite mastery - Exhibition quality production - An homage to one of the world's richest artistic traditions - A remarkable artistic feat by a leading architect Between 1915 and 1917 the Russian composer, Sergei Prokofiev wrote a series of twenty piano pieces. While playing them for a gathering of friends, the poet Konstantin Balmont wrote a sonnet which entitled Mimolyotnosti which Kira Nikolayevna would translate as Visions fugitives. Inspired by these dazzling miniatures, I have assembled a jewel box containing twenty individual felt-tip drawings on watercolor paper capturing fugitive visions of Italy. I have always been eager to capture the faded beauty of cities and buildings. This obsession would inevitably draw me to Venice and Sicily. Wandering amidst the shadows of the Venetian light I have tried to portray the beauty of this luminous city. No part of Italy has as many layers of history or been inhabited by so many different peoples as Sicily. From the Greeks who colonized Siracusa and Selinunte, to the Romans in Agrigento, to the Normans in Palermo. "In every fugitive vision I see worlds filled with the changing play of rainbows." Konstantin Balmont

- 20 original drawings - The beauty of regional China captured with exquisite mastery - Exhibition quality production - An homage to one of the world's richest artistic traditions - A remarkable artistic feat by a leading architect Between 1915 and 1917 the Russian composer, Sergei Prokofiev wrote a series of twenty piano pieces. While playing them for a gathering of friends, the poet Konstantin Balmont wrote a sonnet which entitled Mimolyotnosti which Kira Nikolayevna would translate as Visions fugitives. Inspired by these dazzling miniatures, I have assembled a jewel box containing twenty individual felt-tip drawings on watercolor paper capturing fugitive visions of China. For a country that has of late been focused on the future, I have been fascinated by the search for a true contemporary regional language in traditional Chinese architecture and painting. The intricate and careful composition in relation to landscape and light has been a continual revelation, as evidenced by the Summer Palace on the outskirts of Beijing and vanishing water towns such as Zhujiajiao, known as the "Venice of Shanghai." "In every fugitive vision I see worlds filled with the changing play of rainbows." Konstantin Balmont
