Herbert Bayer, ex Bauhaus, on Route of Friendship motorway into Mexico City for the Olympics; 11 miles long; pieces every one to two miles; eighteen artists from the 5 continents; plea for sculpture on motorways; excellent comments on scale and context and the unsuitability of some of the works; no architect involved only Mathias Goeritz who mediated between the artists and the Olympic Committee and contractors; difference between 'large' and 'monumental'
