內容簡介
Brick City is a celebration of the world's favourite buildings and urban icons, recreated solely using LEGO bricks.
While to many, LEGO bricks are 'just a toy', to an ever-growing army of fans they provide a challenging and enjoyable modelling medium.
These fans, calling themselves 'AFOLs', or Adult Fans of LEGO, have taken it upon themselves to recreate local landmarks using just the bricks that you may find at a local store.
LEGO models created by adult fans, however, don't resemble those that many people created as a child. Created by masters of their medium, these fabulously detailed models may contain thousands of pieces - or perhaps just a handful. Either way, the talented artists have an intimate knowledge of every piece and colour available. Skilfully choosing the ideal piece to recreate a well-known landmark, they may create a model indistinguishable from the real thing, or evoke the spirit of a building in just a few small pieces.
In fact, landmarks and cityscapes - from the New York skyline to the Sagrada Familia, London's St Pancras and the amazing towers of Beijing and Hong Kong - have long been a source of inspiration for LEGO builders.
In this book, LEGO artist Warren Elsmore takes us on a world tour and explores more than 30 global cities and their iconic structures. Below are just some of many cities featured: San Francisco Las Vegas New York City Rio de Janeiro Lisbon Edinburgh London Barcelona Paris Venice Rome Stockholm Prague Moscow Cape Town Tokyo Sydney And many more... Each city is examined and recreated in LEGO form. Comprising amazing artwork, exploratory photographs and detailed breakdowns, Brick City looks at the essence of what makes an urban landscape recognizable.

樂高公司創辦於丹麥,至今已有78年的發展曆史,追本溯源,還得從它的金字招牌LEGO說起。商標“LEGO”的使用是從1934年開始,其語來自丹麥語“LEg GOdt”,意為“play well”,並且該名字首先迅速成為樂高公司在Billund地區玩具工廠生産的優質玩具的代名詞。多年來,“LEGO”圖標也變化瞭多種形式,最新的圖標是1998年製作,它是在1973年的版本基礎上稍作調整而成,使之更便於在媒體上傳播和識彆。

我麵對的隻是我的現實。無論你怎樣想入非非,但你每天得要鑽入地下去挖煤。這就是我的現實。一個人的命運不是自己想改變就能改變得瞭的。至於所謂理想,我認為這不是職業好壞的代名詞。一個人精神是否充實,或者說活得有無意義,主要取決於他對勞動的態度。當然,這不是說願意牛馬般受苦。我也感到井下的勞動在沉重。你一旦成為這個沉重世界裏的一員,你的心緒就不可能隻關注你自身…… 這是我在某友鄰的簽名中看見的話,卻覺得正符閤我現在的心情,所以便藉來用用。
