Various: 1965-1966. 52.5 x 35 cm. Original printed self-wrappers; first three issues are a single page, fourth is a special eight-page issue. Very good to fine condition. A rare complete set in four issues of the journal published in conjunction with four different exhibitions by Constant Nieuwenhuys, known as Constant (1920-2005).

He envisioned a "world wide city for the future" with collectively-owned land and automated labor leading to more freedom for creativity. This project consisted of models, spacial constructions, maquettes, collages, drawings, and text which all worked together to convey Constant's theories. The project… Read More

Description:
[Torino]: S.E.L.P./Studio Editoriale Librario Piemontese, 1931. Quarto (29 x 22 cm). Original illustrated wrappers; 22 pp., profusely illustrated. Some light soiling and toning to covers, minor wear to extremities, very mild mildew staining to title page, slight rust to staples, overall very good. Limited edition of 300 numbered copies. This work was published in 1931, only a few months after the second Italian exhibition of rational architecture, held in Rome from March to April of that same year. It marks a seminal point in Italian architecture and urban planning. It also represents the culmination of M.I.A.R., the Movimento Italiano per l'Architettura Razionale. This ephemeral movement was founded around the same time as the first exhibition of rational architecture, in 1928, and dissolved in 1931. Despite its short-lived nature, it was at the time the most advanced and modern expression of Italian culture.
