His professional activity in the passionate climate of post-war reconstruction in Italy, his communitarian projects and experimental family residences, his book Anonymous (20th Century) in which he defined with an “existentialist” approach his theories of painting, architecture, and urban planning, his visionary projects for “Earth-City” macrostructures, his innovative approach to the spatial organisation of public institutions in his last projects, every step of Ricci’s work was always coherently connected to a basic aim: to translate into an architectural form the dynamism of phenomena and the incessant flow of life.The book investigates Leonardo Ricci’s practical and theoretical approach to architectural design, giving this exceptional figure the recognition he deserves within the panorama of Italian and international architecture following the Second World War.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: USItem Height: 254mmItem Length: 203mmItem Weight: 1024gAuthor: Maria Clara GhiaGenre: Architecture & AntiquesISBN-10: 193593550XRelease Year: 2022 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
