Krueck & Sexton
The New Spertus Institute
A Study in Light

By Cheryl Kent

With an Introduction by Howard A. Sulkin

Photography by William Zbaren

Chicago's Krueck & Sexton Architects are internationally recognized as one of the most innovative design firms practicing today. This volume chronicles-from first design to end result- Krueck & Sexton's design of the award-winning Spertus Institute of Jewish Studies. The architecture of this signature building makes a wonderfully optimistic statement about the nature of Jewish culture and learning, while its contemporary presence on historic South Michigan Avenue both respects and challenges the notions of past and present.

The book featuring stunning images by New York Times architecture photographer William Zbaren, as well as sketches from the architects.
