Costantino Nivola in Craft Horizons

This isn't the first time we've been excited about Costantino Nivola. A feature on the artist and his work was included in the January-February 1959 issue of Craft Horizons, five years before he completed the concrete playground we highlight in Crafting Manhattan.

This glimpse of the Sardinian-born artist in his Midcentury heyday shows a man who is working hard to blur the lines between art and architecture in the world he sculpts.
