This catalogue contains the pieces that Hofmann conceived to decorate the church in Chimbote, Perú, commissioned to the Catalan architect Josep-Lluís Sert but never built.This publication extensively documents the proposal in its historical context, aiming to offer a wider interpretation on the twentieth-century project of a renewed collaboration between art and architecture.
