Abstract
In the first half of the Twentieth Century, Gustavo Giovannoni’s School of Architecture represented one of the main centers for young architects’ education. The lessons taught by the great masters of the Roman School influenced the works built in Rome and those of the most famous protagonists of contemporary architecture, as well as the works by lesser-known professionals, who worked throughout Italy, bringing novelties in their home town. The study aims to analyze the professional activity of Giuseppe Marletta and Enzo Fortuna, two Sicilian architects, who studied in Rome between the Twenties and the Fourties. By examining their archival collections, it is possible to read the notes taken during Vincenzo Fasolo’s course entitled History and Styles of Architecture. The young students were struck by his vision of the past architecture. Ancient architecture, according to Fasolo, contained “values” that could be extrapolated and interpreted in a modern key. For this reason, the architects in training were directed to find useful answers to the design through the analysis of the previous architectures. The aim of the contribution is to verify the impact of the Roman School of Architecture’s training on the residential projects of lesser-known professionals, comparing the Sicilian architectural works with the coeval Roman projects.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
