In my fourth year of architecture, I spent one semester in Italy, at a study center in a Tuscan hill town. My classmates and I took a lot of field trips — day trips in Tuscany (San Gimignano, Siena, Pienza, Montepulciano, etc.) or longer trips to Rome and Venice — but we also had design studios and other classes. In other words, it wasn't all fun, travel and cheap wine ($1 for a bottle of red at the restaurant just up the hill). One of the classes was a seminar in which we read Aldo Rossi's A Scientific Autobiography, a book that has lingered in my head since. On some days we talked together inside, but on others we headed out into the courtyard or the nearby piazza, the last a particularly fitting place to discuss Rossi, an Italian architect known for his thoughts on memory and the city. This being 1995, Rossi was in much more favor with our professor than us students, since we preferred Tschumi, Libeskind, Hadid and other now-famous architects. But Rossi's personal and meandering book is something I found appealing — now and then. It is full of short and long paragraphs that can be detached from the text and analyzed at length, and that is how we read the book, both as a group and individually in our notebooks. It is one of those books that all architects and students of architecture should read, hopefully before they turn 30 (those who read it will know what I mean). ( ) sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
A lyrical memoir by one of the major figures of postmodernist architecture; with drawings of architectural projects prepared especially for the book.This revealing memoir by Aldo Rossi (1937-1997), one of the most visible and controversial figures ever on the international architecture scene, intermingles discussions of Rossi's architectural projects-including the major literary and artistic influences on his work-with his personal history. Drawn from notebooks Rossi kept beginning in 1971, these ruminations and reflections range from his obsession with theater to his concept of architecture as ritual.
