Item description from seller

Quarto with embossed white wraps; sea green endpapers; 52 pages; illustrations; 31 cm. High quality b&w photo reproductions. Catalog for an exhibition which took place at the SFMOMA as well as the Walker Art Center in Minneapolis and Fine Arts Gallery of San Diego. Features 9 of Nervi's architectural accomplishments, commentaries and statements by Nervi and other architectural scholars. "Architectural structures escape us; they are not to be brought into the confines of the museum galleries, placed on pedestals like sculpture. The structures of the architect and engineer are too large, in fact and sometimes perhaps in concept to be so circumscribed. This exhibition then is about the structures of Pier Luigi Nervi. Full and complete experience of his work must be sought where the work is, by movement around and into and through the structures he has created. Here, in drawings and photographs we have a comment, sensitively and perceptively made, about what Nervi has done with the materials whose shape he has ordained." --Preface by George D. Culler of SFMOMA. Near fine with clean pages and tight binding; crisp photographs; light smudges to wraps.
