ansB8172

Jena 1919. 25x18. 144 pp. 72 illustrations including four tipped-in plates, 40 pages of photos on coated paper, and drawings by Taut in the text. Publisher's quarter cloth with cover design by Taut.

First edition of Taut's utopian town building manifesto, with contributions by Paul Scheerbart, Adolf Behne and Erich Baron. Introduced by Scheerbart's "Das neue Leben. Architektonische Apokalypse" the central part of the book is Taut's utopian City Crown scheme, the basic argument of which was the presence in every major city of buildings serving as a focus of the community: palaces, churches etc. Taut provides a new town for the modern man, with a central City Crown of theatre and opera houses, libraries, museums and other buildings grouped around a huge crystal house in which the "lonely wanderer can see his town below his feet and, above him, the rise and fall of the sun".
