Arts & Architecture, 1945-54: The Complete Reprint (HC)
From the end of World War II until the mid-1960s, exciting things were happening in American architecture: emerging talents were focusing on innovative projects that infused low-cost materials and modern design. This trend was most notably incarnated in the famous Case Study House Program, which was championed by the era's leading American journal, Arts & Architecture. Focusing not only on architecture but also design, art, music, politics, and social issues, A&A was an ambitious and groundbreaking publication, largely thanks to the inspiration of John Entenza, who ran the magazine for over two decades until David Travers became publisher in 1962.
This collection comes with ten boxes, each containing a complete year's worth of Arts & Architecture magazines from 1945-1954. That's 6,076 pages in 118 issues reproduced in their entirety beginning with Entenza's January 1945 announcement of the Case Study House program. Also included is a supplement booklet with an original essay by former A&A publisher David Travers, translated from the English into German, French, and Spanish; all the covers and contents; and a selected index to articles.
