From the dust jacket: "Paolo Soleri si è posto sull'Aventino rispetto alla cultura architettonica ufficiale ma il suo Aventino è attivo quasi esplosivo. Nell'arco di oltre cinquant'anni Soleri ha prodotto un corpus grafico straordinario per ampiezza complessità nel quale si è riversata un'inventiva inesausta innovativo ed attualissimo per le sue implicazioni ecologiche. Dedicare un volume alla sua opera grafica significa riconoscere e sancire il valore autonomo di questi disegni il cui significato 'travalica il semplice ruolo di supporto alla progettazione' per diventare strumento di progressiva messa a fuoco di una coerente visione del rapporto uomo-ambiente attraverso lo spazio architettonico." Paolo Soleri has placed himself on the Aventine Hill with respect to the official architectural culture but his Aventine Hill is active almost explosive. Over the course of more than fifty years Soleri has produced an extraordinary graphic corpus for its breadth and complexity into which he has poured an inexhaustible inventiveness innovative and very topical for its ecological implications. Dedicating a volume to his graphic work means recognizing and sanctioning the independent value of these drawings whose meaning 'goes beyond the simple role of supporting design' to become a tool for progressively focusing on a coherent vision of the man-environment relationship through the architectural space.

Rare. <br/><br/>This is vol. 1 only: Subsequent volumes appeared into the early 1800s. Fowler 340 . "After their return to London in 1755 Stuart worked on the first volume of Antiquities of Athens which was published in 1762. He wrote and revised the text had the illustrations engraved and designed a binding as well as painting views of Greece and Pola in gouache for exhibition. The first volume contained details of just five buildings in the northern part of Athens but more were promised in further volumes. The first volume had more than 500 subscribers. Few were architects or builders which limited the impact of the work as a design sourcebook. It was however well received by scholars antiquaries and gentleman amateurs. The presentation binding that Stuart designed for Antiquities of Athens had a Neo-Classical design and inspired architect Robert Adam to design similar presentation bindings for his work on the antiquities of Spalatro. Antiquities of Athens helped shape the European understanding of ancient Greece. It brought an entirely new design vocabulary to 18th-century European architecture and design and later became an essential sourcebook for the 19th-century Greek Revival - V&A exhibit on Stuart in 2007." Most of these engravings were engraved by James Basire who ten years later taught engraving to William Blake. I count 78 engravings including head and tail-pieces and two folding plates. A few plates were executed by Edward Rooker who was celebrated for his architectural plates. Printed By John Haberkorn for the Authors hardcover
