Scope and Contents
The woven pages are made with paper cut from another magazine; the ink added pages are horizontal straight black lines, 12 to a page. One of the images in this book deals with Carlo Mollino (May 6, 1905 - August 27, 1973) who was an Italian architect and designer. He was once credited as saying, "Everything is permissible as long as it is fantastic." That credo was certainly reflected throughout his body of work. Mollino's architecture and furniture are famous for their ability to enable occupants to manipulate volumes at a whim. Further, he was known for taking erotic photographs. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
