Description: Discusses man's use of planned outdoor spaces in art and architecture, emphasizing that people need more well-planned, attractive, open spaces in cities. Compares spaces in such paintings as Mondrian's "Composition London" and "Broadway Boogie" to the open, planned areas of a city. Contrasts the piazza of Portofino, a small fishing village, with the plaza of St. Peter's in Rome.
