Zodiac, from Adriano Olivetti to Guido Canella
In the summer-autumn of 1988, the publisher Renato Minetto asked Guido Canella to direct the new series of Olivetti publications called "Zodiac". The issues, which came out at intervals of six months, were deliberately 21, the same number as those of the first series which had been published between 1957 and 1972. Monographs and miscellaneous issues alternated in nearly equal measure, all introduced by an editorial with a strong theoretical commitment and by one or more historical-critical essays, followed by a review of projects and works of architecture from the main players of contemporary international architecture accompanied by generous documentation described by the authors themselves without any outside comment, with the idea that the works and projects could speak for themselves, leaving personal judgement up to the reader without any editorial mediation apart from the choice to publish or not.
