Summary:

"Considéré comme un des plus grands ingénieurs du XXe siècle, Pier Luigi Nervi (1891-1979) a, tout au long de sa carrière, utilisé la photographie comme outil privilégié d'autopromotion. Il a fait parvenir à Alberto Sartoris plus d'une centaine de photographies originales signées de photographes italiens renommés, actuellement conservées aux Archives de la construction moderne. En les publiant dans ses ouvrages, Sartoris a contribué à diffuser le nom de Nervi et à accroître sa notoriété. Ce livre présente un choix d'images qui magnifi ent les structures les plus représentatives et les plus spectaculaires de l'ingénieur comme des objets moins connus et qui témoignent du lien étroit entre des techniques constructives ; le ferrociment notamment, invention principale de l'ingénieur ; et une expression formelle qui deviendra emblématique de l'Italie de l'après-guerre"--Page [4] of cover.
