AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Carlo Scarpa
Monograph edited by Sergio Los
Photographs by Klaus Frahm
Isolated, often openly opposed, Scarpa left a fragmentary production rich in "one-of-a-kind pieces". The Brion Cemetery, the installations and museographic restorations, his "Venetian villas" made him, among a thousand professional difficulties, one of the masters of modern architecture: a kind of Italian Wright, in the coloristic tradition and with the sense of space of great Venetian-ness.
Structure of the book
Full Critical Essay: The text is written by Sergio Los, an architect who was a close collaborator and student of Carlo Scarpa. This guarantees a philologically accurate analysis of Scarpa’s method.
Visual Apparatus: The volume includes a vast catalog of professional photographs in color and black and white taken by Klaus Frahm. There are also technical drawings, architectural plans and autograph sketches by the Venetian master.
Biographies and Works: The final section contains a detailed chronology of Scarpa’s life and a complete list of all projects carried out and sites executed.
The volume is presented in excellent overall condition. Cover well preserved. Paperback firmly bound. Interior pages clean without creases or stains. Excellent collector’s copy.
COMBINED SHIPPING available for multiple purchases.
