Documents the history of Il Corso del Coltello (The Course of the Knife), a monumental multimedia performance created by sculptor Claes Oldenburg, writer/curator Coosje van Bruggen, and architect Frank O. Gehry, and performed in Venice in 1985; SYNOPSIS: "An 83-foot Swiss Army knife cruising the Venetian lagoon? In 1985, sculptor Claes Oldenburg, L.A. architect Frank Gehry, and writer Coosje van Bruggen joined forces for an "architectural performance" interweaving an army of characters dressed as objects in a scenario too complicated to summarize. Il Corso del Coltello lovingly documents this urban theatrical from the earliest notes through performance photographs. The event preaching the new architectural order in the shadow of Venetian Renaissance buildings clearly was fun for spectators and performers alike." (Reference: Annette Melville, Research Libraries Group, Stanford, CA; Library Journal, 1987.); book is tight; with just few tiny nicks at the top of the spine of the illustrated wrappers, some kind of mechical mark on first title page, and there are a few small dents in the last pages of the Bibliograph's text in rear of book; otherwise in VERY GOOD COND.
