Synopsis

Manmade, yet empty of people: New Objectivity in architecture and industry by Carl Grossberg.

Carl Grossberg's unmistakable visual language and its relevance to the present day: this monograph addresses the contemporary resonance of Grossberg's vision of globalization and the structural changes caused by industry. His industrial structures, vats, and machines are eyewitnesses to the rapid technological progress of the beginning of the twentieth century. Portrayed on a monumental scale, they are produced with sober precision, clear forms, luminous colors, and almost always without people--a peculiar emptiness, modern and impressive.

Grossberg's compositions elicit questions about progress and its effect on humanity. With his unique dream images, he evokes the magic of things in order to perceive other realities behind them. Unforgettable--a book that will stay with you.
