Moholy's Edit: CIAM 1933: The Avant-Garde at Sea by Chris Blencowe (English) Pap

Description: Moholy's Edit by Chris Blencowe, Judith Levine Testimony of a legendary cruise FORMAT Paperback LANGUAGE English CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description The Greek island sequence montaged by Laszlo Moholy-Nagy into his legendary documentary Architects Congress can be interpreted, like his provocative Photoplastiks, as a "message in a bottle" thrown into the sea that "might take decades for someone to find and read." Capturing the incomparable Greek light, it presents a compelling glimpse of the four days and nights in August 1933 when the elite of the European architectural and artistic avant-garde - in Greece for the 4th International Congress of Modern Architecture (CIAM) - took to the Aegean in a barely seaworthy "nut shell" that would bring them close to the brink of disaster. The "motley crew" included Le Corbusier, Fernand Leger, Amedee Ozenfant, Sigfried Giedion, Cor van Eesteren and Otto Neurath. Crucial to the success of the surreal odyssey were various members of the Greek avant-garde. Drawing on previously unpublished material - Moholys poetically ironic letter to his wife, Sibyl, Ghikas candid Memoirs of Le Corbusier and forensic examination of the architects sketchbooks - the authors reconstruct the epiphanies, debates and, inevitably, estrangements at this critical moment in European history. 95 illustrations Long Description The Greek island sequence montaged by L Details ISBN3037785667 Author Judith Levine Pages 200 Publisher Lars Muller Publishers Year 2018 ISBN-10 3037785667 ISBN-13 9783037785669 Format Paperback Imprint Lars Muller Publishers Subtitle CIAM 1933: The Avant-Garde at Sea Place of Publication Baden Country of Publication Switzerland Illustrations 100 Illustrations, unspecified Media Book DEWEY 720.922 Language English Short Title Moholys Edit UK Release Date 2018-10-31 Publication Date 2018-10-31 Audience General We've got this At The Nile, if you're looking for it, we've got it.
