The Archivio Progetti of Venice

Abstract

http://www.iuav.it/homepage/ap/ The Archivio Progetti of Venice keeps many architectural archives, with drawings, models, photographs, papers, books and recordings). It acquires them mainly from architets, but also engineers, town planners, photographers and corporates. It was founded in 1987, by the Design Departement of the Istituto Universitario di Architettura di Venezia. The Archivio Progetti is hosted in an old cotton-mill, on the Canale della Giudecca. Restored in the Nineties on a project by the Gino Valle studio, the main building hosts today a large part of the Università Iuav of Venice: lecture-halls, the Design Department and the Archivio Progetti. The Archivio Progetti also periodically organizes exibitions of single archives. In this article the author shows in detail the materials of Archive about Bologna.
