He was also an eloquent champion of photography as an art form, publishing \u003ci\u003eMessage from the Darkroom\u003c\/i\u003e in 1949--a legendary photobook that was part history of photography, part technical manual and gloriously lavish for both functions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eCarlo Mollino: Photographs 1934-1973\u003c\/i\u003e is a long-overdue survey of Mollino's full body of photographic work, published to accompany the largest and most complete exhibition ever staged of Mollino's photography. With more than 450 illustrations (some never before seen), this publication surveys Mollino's decades-long exploration of the medium, from his first architectural pictures to the erotic Polaroids of his later years, and contextualizes his work within the history of the discipline.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAmong the most celebrated architects of the 20th century, \u003cb\u003eCarlo Mollino\u003c\/b\u003e (1905-73) was also a designer, photographer, writer, skier, racing driver and stunt pilot. He studied mechanical engineering, art history and architecture before beginning to work in the architectural practice of his father, Eugenio Mollino, in Turin. Mollino's architectural work in Turin--from his first great building, the headquarters of the Turin Equestrian Association (1937), to his architectural masterpiece, the city's Teatro Regio (1965)--bookends a career marked by elegant, organic modernism and a drive toward fantasy and experimentation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 256\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1 x 9.6 x 6.9 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e October 08, 2019\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50335555354861,"sku":"9788836638987","price":50.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0020\/8918\/9441\/files\/lodAo9cNRx9788836638987.webp?v=1785043151","url":"https:\/\/www.webster.direct\/en-au\/products\/carlo-mollino-photographs-1934-1973-paperback","provider":"Webster.Direct","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
