Product Description Product DescriptionFrom his geodesic dome to books popularizing the terms “spaceship earth?€ and “synergetics,?€ the life mission of R. Buckminster Fuller was to create living environments that minimized consumption of the earth?€™s resources while maximizing interconnections with global systems of information and transportation. This book explores Fuller's extraordinary body of work focusing on? his wide-ranging and sometimes controversial role within the worlds of art, architecture, and utopian thought.? The book chronicles Fuller?€™s profound, often prophetic contributions, including his environmentally sensitive building designs. The essays illuminate the underappreciated thematic interactions of many sculptors, painters, musicians, and architects with this self-described “comprehensive anticipatory design scientist,?€ including contemporary artists wrestling with Fuller?€™s legacy today.? Reproductions of original drawings and models—including those for Fuller?€™s 4D house, Wichita House, the Montreal Expo dome, and the sole extant Dymaxion car—plus a reprinted 1966 New Yorker profile on Fuller by Calvin Tomkins, complete the fascinating tribute.
