L'utopie du tout plastique 1960-1973 - Fondation pour l'architecture 1994
The 60's were marked by unprecedented prosperity and technological progress. This optimism was matched by extraordinary creative freedom, until the oil crisis of 1973 tempered this enthusiasm. The vogue for plastic is linked to this society of abundance. Yellow, red, orange, soft, hard, inflatable, plastic is identified with cheap, mass-produced, disposable products. Based on a unique private collection (the Plasticarium, Brussels), the book presents a selection of plastic objects created between 1960 and 1973.
