  • Joseph Connors
    Joseph Connors, “L’ ‘architettura aperta’ di Richard Pommer e la geografia culturale della storia dell’arte a New York nell’immediato dopoguerra”, in Architettura del Settecento in Piemonte. Le strutture aperte di Juvarra, Alfieri e Vittone, BY RICHARD POMMER, ed. GIUSEPPE DARDANELLO, Turin, Allemandi, 2003, pp. XV–XIX. Introduction to the Italian translation of Richard Pommer, Eighteenth-Century Architecture in Piedmont: The Open Structures of Juvarra, Alfieri and Vittone, New York, 1967 Eighteenth-century Architecture in Piedmont is a work of stunning originality that first began to take shape in the mind of a young American in his late twenties who visited Piedmont for the first time in the summer of 1958. Richard Pommer (1930-92) had come to Turin to write a monograph on Vittone, but he discovered an interpretative key of great power that shed light on a century of architecture and tied together the three giants of the period, Guarini, Juvarra and Vittone. This key is the idea of open structures. It refers to an architecture that is not solid and Roman, but perforated, bored through, skeletal, full of air and light, mildly reminiscent, in the minds of early theorists, of the gothic. The buildings are covered by domes and vaults that are tents of webbing, flooded with light, floating as if weightless over aereal cages. As different as Guarini is from Juvarra the central theme of both architects was the exploration of open structures. But it was Vittone who best expressed their common ideal: “The eye has full liberty to range down the church at its pleasure”; “that satisfaction which [vision] receives when extending through a great space to enjoy the variety of the objects, with fewer obstructions to impede it.” This is the guiding theme of the book, “the pleasure of unhindered vision.” Pommer conducted two years of research in Turin between 1958 and 1960, but since he began his work in New York and finished it there, it is interesting to reflect for a moment on the cultural geography of art history in New York in the immediate postwar period.

In the late 1950s Harvard had considered hiring the great Germans, Rudolf Wittkower and Rich- ard Krautheimer, but decided not to, thus condemning New York to be the center of Baroque studies and medieval architecture for decades.
