Following five years' work in the James Stirling/Michael Wilford fonds at the Canadian Centre for Architecture, Anthony Vidler reviews the architecture of James Stirling (1924–1992) in the context of the ongoing crisis of modernism, between art and hi-tech, vernacular and monumental, and his relevance for today. Vidler's exhibition, Notes from the Archive: James Frazer Stirling Architect and Teacher, is now on view at the British Art Center, Yale University, and will open in the Clore Gallery of Tate Britain in April 2011. His accompanying book, James Frazer Stirling: Notes from the Archive, is published by Yale University Press in conjunction with the CCA and the BAC.

Anthony Vidler is Professor and Dean of the Irwin S. Chanin School of Architecture, The Cooper Union, New York. His most recent publications are Histories of the Immediate Present (MIT Press 2009), and James Frazer Stirling (Yale, 2010).
