In Search of the Forgotten Architect Lilly Dubowitz With essays by Éva Forgács and Richard Anderson 212 pp, 260 x 200 mm, paperback August 2012 978-1-907896-21-7 £30 Stefan Sebök was a Hungarian-born architect who worked with Walter Gropius in Dessau and Berlin in the late 1920s, and then with fellow Hungarian emigré László Moholy-Nagy on his famous Light Prop, and later still moved to the Soviet Union to work with the constructivist architects Ginzburg, the Vesnin brothers and El Lissitzky. Details of his life are revealed through this book written by Sebök’s niece, Lilly Dubowitz, who meticulously pieces together clues and details of her uncle’s life and work as if like an architectural detective. This text is accompanied not only by numerous illustrations of Sebök’s design work but by essays by historians Éva Forgács and Richard Anderson.
