Containing over 140 exclusive photographs - ranging from private homes to football stadia - across every region of the country, Brutalist Italy is the first publication to focus entirely on this subject. Best books of 2023 (Architecture and Design) - Financial Times 'Brutalist Italian architecture enthusiasts and concrete completists will be spoilt for choice by Roberto Conte and Stefano Perego's pictorial tour.' - Wallpaper* What makes Italian Brutalist buildings different to their counterparts in other countries? Containing over 140 exclusive photographs - ranging from private homes to churches and cemeteries via football stadia - across every region of the country, Brutalist Italy is the first publication to focus entirely on this subject. Architectural photographers Roberto Conte and Stefano Perego (authors of Soviet Asia) have spent the past five years travelling over 20,000 kilometres documenting the monumental concrete structures of their native country. Brutalism - with its minimalist aesthetic, favouring raw materials and structural elements over decorative design - has a complex relationship with Italian history. After World War II, Italian architects were keen to distance themselves from fascism, without rejecting the architectural modernism that had flourished during that era. They developed a form of contemporary architecture that engaged with traditional methods and materials, drawing on uncontaminated historical references. This plurality of pasts assimilated into new constructions is a recurring feature of the country's Brutalist buildings, imparting to them a unique identity. From the imposing social housing of Le Vele di Scampia to the celestial Our Lady of Tears Sanctuary, Syracuse - Brutalist Italy collects the most compelling examples of this extraordinary architecture for the first time in a single volume. The book is dual language, with texts in both English and Italian.

Hardback. Condition: New. This catalogue accompanies the monographic exhibition that Museo Vincenzo Vela, in Mendrisio-Ligornetto, has dedicated to the works of Lawrence Carroll (b. 1954). Born in Melbourne, Carroll moved to California with his family in 1958. Some twenty-five years later, in 1984 he moved once again, to New York, where he pursued his artistic development, having little concern for the fashions of the moment but a profound sense of personal commitment and dedication to the language and practice of painting. As he understands it, painting abuts on many other art forms: in his hands it becomes the slow stratification of colour, materials, and objects, in which the surface of the painting interacts with the surrounding environment, blurring the borders between painting, sculpture, and installation.Moving from place to place, Carroll has always been most at home in the quiet of his studio, which provides him with the intimacy he requires to express himself. Here he explores duration as the fragility of time and space, placing memory at the heart of his poetics. Old remembrances emerge on the surface, overlaying each other layer upon layer, like an accumulation of light, dust and matter in pale colour tones as close to the colour of the canvas as possible. Inherently porous as the surface is, one can make out graphemes and underlying traces, while objects are applied directly onto it. The result is a poetics of rarefied references, narratives that gradually form and are at the same time swathed in a metaphysical atmosphere of suspension, a sort of 'metaphysics of the quotidian'. Designed like an autobiography installed in the rooms of the museum-house, the exhibition provides an overview of Carroll's artistic development, from his earliest works to the present day, highlighting the subtle recurring themes as well as the fresh departures that have taken him on wholly new artistic journeys. The catalogue offers the first ever overall assessment of the artist's work as it has evolved during his life. The book is lavishly illustrated, and includes a full biography and comprehensive bibliography, as well as providing an engaging interview with the artist. Text in English and Italian.…

Rilegato. Condition: new. Milano, 2011; ril., pp. 176, cm 14,5x21.(Saggi). Un quadro politico desolante, un'economia in stallo, lo spettro del "default", lo spauracchio della secessione, il baratro che si allarga tra "casta" e "antipolitica", i giovani senza prospettive. Mentre celebriamo un secolo e mezzo dello Stato unitario, l'Italia ci appare fragile, declinante, immobile, divisa. Per superare i rischi di una decadenza del posto dell'Italia nel mondo e del nostro benessere, dobbiamo guardare oltre le differenze politiche, sociali, territoriali, le convenienze personali e familiari, il campanilismo e il localismo. Soprattutto, dobbiamo ricominciare a sentirci una comunità, che voglia impegnarsi in un progetto condiviso. La parola "patria", sequestrata dal nazionalismo del "sangue e suolo", bandita dall'internazionalismo marxista, è rimasta estranea, per ragioni storiche e ideologiche, alle tradizioni culturali prevalenti nel nostro paese. Tuttavia oggi, per evitare le opposte derive del mondialismo omologante e del proliferare di egoismi di luogo e di gruppo, diventa indispensabile rifondare una identità collettiva che non si fondi su condizioni date - il sangue, il territorio, la lingua, la religione - ma su valori e obiettivi condivisi. Emanuele Conte e Roberto Della Seta ci offrono una riflessione insieme storica e politica sul concetto di patria e sul ruolo che esso ha avuto nella cultura e nella storia del nostro paese. Per proiettarlo nel futuro, come risorsa modernissima al servizio dell'interesse comune degli italiani. Libro.…

Brossura. Condition: new. Padova, 2009; br., pp. 128, ill. b/n e col., cm 21x27. (Aedificium. Luoghi dell'arte della storia. 2). Dopo molti anni viene finalmente restituito alla città di Padova l'edificio dell'ex Palazzo di Giustizia di via Altinate, sorto sulle strutture del convento dell'ordine dei Chierici Regolari Teatini, con la nuova destinazione di Centro Civico Culturale. Il sito, di antiche origini, ospitava in epoca medievale un piccolo monastero appartenente alla congregazione degli Umiliati che venne rilevato dai Teatini di San Gaetano nel 1573. Pochi anni dopo i Chierici Regolari si fecero lì costruire - da Vincenzo Scamozzi - un nuovo complesso, con chiesa e monastero, terminato solamente nel Settecento. In breve tempo il luogo e l'ordine religioso che lo animava divennero importante punto di riferimento culturale e assistenziale per la città e la strada su cui si affacciava assunse la denominazione di contrada dei Teatini e poi di San Gaetano fino all'Ottocento. Nel 1929 l'edificio subì un grave incendio che, tuttavia, non distrusse l'intero fabbricato. Su quello scheletro l'architetto ingegnere Tullio Paoletti impostò il nuovo Tribunale che rimase attivo fino all'inaugurazione della nuova sede di via Venezia. A partire dalla metà degli anni Novanta sono iniziati i restauri del complesso che hanno permesso di recuperare e valorizzare quanto si era conservato del convento, in particolare lo spazio del chiostro, il fulcro della vita e delle attività dei Teatini. Roberto Conte (Padova 1970) è architetto libero professionista e insegnante di Storia dell'Arte. Da anni si occupa di divulgazione e didattica dei beni culturali del territorio padovano e collabora nelle iniziative dei Musei Civici del Comune di Padova. È autore di numerosi saggi e articoli di storia e arte apparsi in cataloghi e riviste specializzate e ha curato dei quaderni di supporto alla visita di alcune chiese padovane. Libro.…
