Jean Prouvé (1901-1984) ist einer der außergewöhnlichsten Ingenieure des 20. Jhs. Seine Konstruktionen und Erfindungen in den Bereichen der industriellen Fertigung, Vorfabrikation oder Anwendungen neuer Materialien wie Aluminium und Wellblech sowie seine Design-Entwürfe üben heute noch auf viele Architekten und Ingenieure einen bedeutenden Einfluss aus. Der vierte Band des Gesamtwerkes beschäftigt sich mit Prouvés Schaffensperiode von 1954 bis 1984. In diesem Zeitraum werden wichtige Projekte realisiert: u.a. die Messehallen in Grenoble "Alpexpo", Tankstellen für Total, die Trinkhalle in Evian, Vorhangfassaden z.B. für die Freie Universität in Berlin, für die medizinische Fakultät der Erasmus Universität in Rotterdam sowie sein letztes Werk, der Radarturm in Ouessant. Insgesamt entwickelte und realisierte die Equipe Prouvé während dieser Zeit etwa 200 Projekte. Zwischen1957 und 1970 hatte Prouvé außerdem eine Professur am Conservatoire National des Arts et Métiers in Paris inne.

Jean Prouvé (1901–1984) is widely recognised as one of the most extraordinary engineers of the twentieth century. His constructions and inventions in the fields of industrial manufacturing, prefabrication, and the use of new materials like aluminum and corrugated iron as well as his design sketches are an abiding and significant influence on many architects and engineers today. The fourth volume of the complete works deals with Prouvé’s creative period from 1954 to 1984, covering 200 projects, including such major works as the Alpexpo exhibition halls in Grenoble, gas stations for Total, the pump room in Evian, curtain walls – for example for the Freie Universität (Free University) in Berlin and the Medical School of Erasmus University in Rotterdam – and his final work, the radar tower in Ouessant. From 1957 to 1970 Prouvé was also professor at the Conservatoire National des Arts et Métiers in Paris.
