Summary:

The figure of Ignazio Gardella (1905-1999) has been the focus since the 1930s of a wealth of critical literature marked by the contributions of renowned scholars and architects. Their collective observations have identified the characterizing elements of Gardella?s work in terms of their relationship with compositional techniques, history, contexts, and cities. A lesser-known aspect, more open to experimentation, is his research into interior spaces,0which accompanied his entire career. The other architectures in this book allude not only to to the intention of dealing with the unpublished or minor aspects, often overlooked and perhaps not fully understood, but also to the possibility that additional research materials, based on Gardella?s projects for interiors and permanent and temporary exhibitions, can help us to better comprehend the architect?s design processes. As we immersed ourselves in the archival work, we realized that these projects often appeared to be sources, rather than reflections, of his more acclaimed architectural expressions. The essays presented here are the outcome of a research project begun in 2016 as part of a multi-year program developed by CSAC (The Study Centre and Communication Archive of the University of Parma). The program is dedicated to the work of some of the masters of 20th-century Italian architecture, whose cultural heritage must be reinvested in the renewal and disciplinary advancement of architectural design today.
