This hitherto unpublished text by Constant probably dates from 1956. Thematically it has a strong affinity with ‘Tomorrow Life Will Reside in Poetry’ from the same year.
This text has its origin in a declaration of principles for the journal Art et Habitat, which Constant and Stephen Gilbert intended to devote to the ‘synthesis of the arts’ (1953). The journal was never published, however, and Constant revised and developed the text in 1955
This text appeared in Forum in 1955 and is part of a widespread debate during the 1950s. In this debate about collaboration among architects and visual artists.
