Today, Italian architect and designer Carlo Mollino (1905-73) is
known chiefly for his furniture designs. He is famous also for his
erotic polaroid photography of the 1960s, which has been subject of
many exhibitions and has lost nothing of its great appeal to the
fashion world today. Much less attention has so far been given to
Mollino's architecture, and a comprehensive critical study of his
work in this field has been lacking. Yet his built work, although
relatively small, constitutes a seminal contribution to modernism
that is uniquely marked by a strong relationship with Surrealism.
Based on years of research and drawing on rich archival material as
well as on Mollino's own writings, this new book is the overdue
tribute to an extraordinary personality in 20th-century
architecture. It features an exemplary selection of his key
designs, both built and unrealised, lavishly illustrated with
images and reproductions of previously unpublished plans, drawings,
and documents. Rounded out with scholarly essays by expert authors,
this is a long-awaited addition to the library of architecture
lovers, professionals, and scholars.
