UNESCO: The Seeds of Peace: UNESCO Reference Works (2nd Revised Edition)

The United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) has established its headquarters in a large Y-shaped building now become a landmark in the Paris urban landscape and a museum in itself. Paintings, sculptures, drawings and mineral and floral creations have been integrated into the building plans from the very beginning, and donations received over the years have enriched the art collection making it a symbol of the cultural diversity and utopian aspirations incarnated by UNESCO.
