OverviewThis is a selection of hitherto unpublished material from the archives of the Aldo Rossi Foundation covering the development of one of the unquestionable masters of Italian and international architecture in the post war period. The Italian architect and theorist Aldo Rossi (1931-1997) gained international renown for his imaginative and starkly beautiful designs featuring simple forms such as cones, cylinders, prisms, and cubes. Sketches, drawings, concepts, watercolours and collages from the early sixties through to 1998 help us to understand Aldo Rossi the artist and the architect, his mindset and how he elaborated his projects. This is a truly valuable tool for scholars.
