Excursion to Northern Italy 2023

The journey behind Palladio, Scarpa and Rossi. After handing in the studio work and passing all the exams, at the end of the summer semester, there is an opportunity to reward yourself a little and experience the buildings of the trio of Italian legends firsthand. Andrea Palladio is rightly considered one of the most important creators in the entire history of architecture. The Czech audience remembered him last year with the reprint of two publications, Four Books on Architecture and 400 Years of the Villas of Venice 1404-1797. Although Carlo Scarpa is most often associated with the sensitive reconstruction of Venetian palaces, his connection to glassmaking traditions and his work at the IUAV University, many of his realizations can also be visited outside the Venetian lagoon. Aldo Rossi's political involvement forced him to teach outside the Italian borders for a while. The turbulent way of life caused his premature departure, but he still left behind a number of realizations in the area of ??northern Italy that inspire even today's generations. In addition to these giants, along the way we will not miss the current creations of North Italian, South Tyrolean and Ticino ateliers. In the packed program, there will be enough time to soak up the atmosphere of historic cities that have influenced the shape of European cities since the Roman period.
