Wilhelm Holzbauer can be counted among the most prominent mid-century Austrian architects. His approach, while derived from modernism, must also be seen in the context of the great architectural developments of past centuries. Wilhelm Holzbauer: 50 Years of Architecture contains the architect's complete work including an up-to-date review of his latest projects. Architectural critic Liesbeth Waechter-B hm's introductory essay puts Holzbauer's work into a wider context. She asserts that Holzbauer's architecture has always studiously avoided the zeitgeist. His churches, transport buildings, housing, public projects, cultural buildings, universities, and research facilities were built to last.Waechter-Böhm, Liesbeth is the author of 'Wilhelm Holzbauer, Holzbauer und Partner / Holzbauer und Irresberger 50 Years of Architecture', published 2006 under ISBN 9783211239384 and ISBN 3211239383.
