For almost 30 years, the Italian architect Carlo Scarpa collaborated with the well-known Venetian cabinetmaker Saverio Anfodillo to construct his designs. The Craft of Architecture documents their work together and gives a survey of Scarpa's oeuvre, one of the most outstanding of the 20th century. This publication is informed and instigated by the MAK's 1999 acquisition of a number of design drawings from the cabinetmaker's archives. These include architectural illustrations for the Museo di Castelvecchio in Verona, built 1956-1964, the Galleria Querini Stampalia in Venice, built in 1961-1963, and the Tomba Brion in San Vito di Altivole, built in 1970-1978; as well as furniture design sketches and wooden models of design details, some for a table for composer Luigi Nono. The Craft of Architecture presents for the first time plans, sketches, blueprints, and models from this collection, complemented by photographs of Scarpa's most important built projects.
