The XX century architectural heritage in the Marche region. The Masters’ drawings and designs.

Abstract

In the history of architecture, Marche is often considered as a region that did not take part in the big developments of national architecture. Hence it’s meaningful to examine the architectonic events of the Region in the XX century and how much the Marche region has been the object of work by the great masters of the past century. A list of architects - called ‘masters’ – has been selected: Franco Albini, Gae Aulenti, Carlo Aymonino, Ernesto Basile, BBPRGuido Canella, Giancarlo De Carlo, Luigi Figini, Massimiliano Fuksas, Roberto Gabetti, Ignazio Gardella, Giorgio Grassi, Vittorio Gregotti, Adalberto Libera, Giovanni Michelucci, Gaetano Minnucci, Carlo Mollino, Luigi Moretti, Pier Luigi Nervi, Giuseppe Pagano, Edoardo Persico, Marcello Piacentini, Renzo Piano, Gio Ponti, Paolo Portoghesi, Franco Purini, Ludovico Quaroni, Mario Ridolfi, Aldo Rossi, Giuseppe Samonà, Antonio Sant’Elia; Alberto Sartoris, Carlo Scarpa, Giuseppe Terragni, Gino Valle, Vittoriano Viganò, Marco Zanuso, The research is a meaningful census of the works of the 20th century, whether they have been realized or not (projects, competitions, studies etc.) and assigned to the masters listed above.
