Ninety nine years after the travel to Italy of Erik Gunnar Asplund, the
seminar aims to explore the mutual influences between Nordic and Italian, or Mediterranean, architecture. The papers should discuss the architect’s travel from the Nordic countries to the Mediterranean or viceversa, as well as the mutual influences between these two architectural ‘universes’. The proponents are free to choose the period of interest.
Giornata di studio internazionale / International seminar
Roma, 14-15 Novembre 2013
Accademia Nazionale di San Luca
The main purpose of the seminar is to enlighten the hybridation and
exchange processes which have provided significant chapters of the history
of architecture.
Beyond the travel (carnets, sketches, drawings, photographs, reports,
descriptions, etc.), we espect papers dealing with single works or the
entire productions of an architect or a group of architects.
The seminar aims to debate how formal models and solutions from different
areas can contribute to the enrichment and the growth of architectural
cultures able to include them without denying their own characteristic
features.
