Le Corbusier alla IX Triennale. Rilancio e crisi della proporzione

The chapter analyses the role played by Le Corbusier at the IX Triennale, mostly through the lens of his contribution to the "Mostra di studi sulle proporzioni", where contemporary artworks, ancient books, precious drawings as well as the layout designed by Francesco Gnecchi Ruscone all contributed to the launch of a new idea of proportion in the aftermath of the war.
