Muriel Cooper, Cambridge, Massachusetts, 1973
Description
This is a statement in support of art for social use: the interaction of art and architecture, the city, and the open landscape. Typewriter composition reduced costs and increased page layout flexibility. At the dummy stage, author produced drawings to improve rhythm of type to image. Unit cost was very high because of color palates and low print quality.
