The Italian Cultural Institute in Tel Aviv has organised a webinar with lecturers from Politecnico di Milano on \u201cThe Milan School: from Albini to Piano\u201d. This event will be held using a Zoom platform and the Institute\u2019s social channels on Tuesday 23 November (time 18:30). Its aim will be to deal with the polytechnic\u2019s educational history: stories of science, technology and creativity, of milestones attained by its great masters, and of future visions.<\/p>\n
The event\u2019s programme includes input from Federico Bucci,\u00a0lecturer on the History of Architecture and Rectorate Delegate for the University\u2019s cultural policies, aimed at highlighting certain personages and the events related to a group of architects who have worked in Milan and studied at the Politecnico di Milano. All of these linked by the \u201crational methodological line proposed, in new, poetic terms, by the Modern Movement\u201d. These leading figures ranging from Franco Albini (1905-1977), Ignazio Gardella (1905- 1999), Ernesto Nathan Rogers (1909-1969) and Marco Zanuso (1916-2001), through to contemporary students such as Antonio Monestiroli (1940-2019) and Guido Canella (1931-2009), brought form to an architectural tradition able to bear witness to our time, and promoted by critical interpretation of this teaching, on the part of the subsequent generations. This brought to life a School that uses history as the key to reading a modern architectural design.<\/p>\n
Bucci (Foggia, 1959) is, among other things, the UNESCO Chair on \u201cArchitectural Preservation and Planning in World Heritage Cities\u201d. He has been President of the Italian Association of Architectural Historians and Visiting Professor at Adelaide University in South Australia, and the Texas A&M University, the Architectural Institute in Moscow, the Universidad de Los Andes in Venezuela, the Pontificia Universidad Catolica de Chile, the University of Southern California in Los Angeles, and the Universitat Polit\u00e8cnica de Catalunya in Barcelona.<\/p>\n
He has also worked at the archives of Albert Kahn Inc. (Detroit) and the Canadian Centre for Architecture (Montreal). He has been part of some editorial boards (including\u00a0\u201cDomus\u201d and \u201cQuaderni di architettura\u201d) and has published various books. Since 2012 he has launched and run the MantovArchitettura festival, an annual event made up of conferences, exhibitions, and workshops on architecture, held in historical venues in the cities of Mantua and Sabbioneta.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Italian Cultural Institute in Tel Aviv has organised a webinar with lecturers from Politecnico di Milano on \u201cThe Milan School: from Albini to Piano\u201d.
