Napoleone Ferrari – Michelangelo Sabatino
Park Books
distributed in North America through the University of Chicago Press
Carlo Mollino Architect and Storyteller is the first in-depth study of his architecture. It is based on extensive archival research and features a range of materials including vintage drawings, photographs, and documents, complimented by a portfolio of new photographs realized in 2016 by Pino Musi, an essay by Guy Nordenson and one by Sergio Pace.
The book frames Carlo Mollino within the context of 20th century architecture and culture, revealing his extraordinary talents as a "storyteller", that is, his ability to transform the technical-functional dimension of his buildings into an expressive language, both symbolic and emotional.
