Author Biography
Among the most celebrated architects of the 20th century, Carlo Mollino (1905-73) was also a designer, photographer, writer, skier, racing driver and stunt pilot. He studied mechanical engineering, art history and architecture before beginning to work in the architectural practice of his father, Eugenio Mollino, in Turin. Mollino's architectural work in Turin--from his first great building, the headquarters of the Turin Equestrian Association (1937), to his architectural masterpiece, the city's Teatro Regio (1965)--bookends a career marked by elegant, organic modernism and a drive toward fantasy and experimentation.
