Description: Moholy's Edit by Chris Blencowe, Judith Levine Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description Testimony of a legendary cruise 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 Drawing on previously unpublished material - Moholys poetically ironic letter to his wife, Sibyl, Ghikas candid Memoirs of Le Corbusier and forensic examination of the architects sketchbooks -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 Details ISBN 3037785667 ISBN-13 9783037785669 Title Moholy's Edit Author Chris Blencowe, Judith Levine Format Paperback Year 2018 Pages 200 Publisher Lars Muller Publishers GE_Item_ID:119550073; About Us Grand Eagle Retail is the ideal place for all your shopping needs!
