Description

St. Paul's Cathedral, Wren's masterwork which combines Renaissance and
Baroque elements within a powerful geometric form, dominates the City of
London. The Church of the Sacred Heart by Joe Plecknik has emerged as a key
representative of the modern movement. The Church of the Water and the
Church of the Light are two small and exquisite churches by Ando, which
complement each other perfectly. By looking at these churches within one
volume, the student, architecture enthusiast and ecclesiologist can gain
insight into varying approaches by architects - from the past to the present
and in differing cultural and geographical settings - to creating Christian
sacred space.
