The bilingual (English-Italian)
catalogue, edited by Cynthia Davidson and published by Marsilio, comprises
ample documentation relative to the installation and to recent projects
by the American architect, analysing his methods and theory, describing
their impact on the evolution of an architecture that knowingly faces
the new century. The catalogue’s graphic design follows the
guiding force of the entire project: Scarpa’s flooring in the
sculpture Galleria of Castelvecchio.
The catalogue features essays by Peter Eisenman, Kurt W. Forster,
and Antonino Saggio, and more than 100 illustrations of models, studies,
and documents.
