James Stirling (architect)
Sir James Frazer Stirling (22 April 1926 – 25 June 1992) was a British architect. Among critics and architects alike he is generally acknowledged to be one of the most important and influential architects of the second half of the 20th century.
Stirling worked in partnership with James Gowan from 1956 to 1963, then with Michael Wilford from 1971 until 1992.
==Early life and education==
Stirling was born in Glasgow. His year of birth is widely quoted as 1926〔Wilford and Muirhead, p. 306〕 but his longstanding friend Colin St John Wilson later stated it was 1924.〔Colin St John Wilson, 'James Stirling: in Memoriam', ''Architectural Review'', p.18 "James Stirling was born in 1924 - a time when architecture plunged into the most profound revaluation in 500 years. It was epitomised by two events: in 1925 Le Corbusier built the Pavilion de l'Esprit Nouveau and in 1927 Bijvoet & Duiker completed the Zonnestraal Sanatorium in Hilversum."〕 Stirling went to school at Quarry Bank High School, Liverpool, England.〔 During World War II, he joined the Black Watch before transferring to the Parachute Regiment. He was parachuted behind German enemy lines before D-Day and wounded twice, before returning to Britain.〔Stephen Fay, ('A Matter of Taste: In life, James Stirling was a big figure, and a controversial one: was he a giant of modern architecture, or a large ego with a slender body of work? In death, he is fast being rehabilitated, and his most famous building finally looks like being built' ), The Independent, 31 January 1993, online article retrieved 4 September 2012.〕
Stirling studied architecture from 1945 until 1950 at the University of Liverpool, where Colin Rowe was a fellow-student.
