The exhibition catalogue will investigate the subject in more depth, tracing the megastructuralists’ historical precursors, such as the Soviet linear towns, and examining the relationship between the post-war architectural avant-garde (Team 10) and its relationship to the planners who in the 1960s actually realized new cities such as Chandigarh and Brasila (Le Corbusier; Oscar Niemeyer and Lucio Costa). The movement’s individual protagonists will be presented in detail with texts and images. One chapter will address the artists involved in the project, another the subject of megastructure and mega-cities.

The catalogue, of around 300 pages, in German and English, will be released for the opening of the exhibition.
