Machine-age exposition : catalogue

1927 · New York : [publisher not identified] · 12 pictures

This 1927 exhibition catalogue, published in New York by an unidentified publisher, documents the Machine-Age Exposition and was made for an audience of artists, architects and designers interested in modern industry. Its pictures are black-and-white photographs and drawings of modernist buildings: stacked horizontal window bands, cantilevered balconies, a tall vertical tower and a white architectural model. A designer could take from them the grid-based massing and stark cubic forms of early modernist architecture.
