The Neoclassical arch was built to commemorate the visit of Francis I of Austria in 1825. It was reconstructed from 1826 to 1828 by Giacomo Moraglia and dedicated to Garibaldi in 1860. Built in the Doric style, the gate is flanked by two portals overlooking the street. The customs houses were added in 1836. Its less than monumental proportions are better suited to the surrounding streets as the gate used to be at the end of a winding road, hardly compatible with a wider project Palazzo Della Regione Palazzo Lombardia ("Lombardy Building") is a complex of buildings in Milan, Italy, including a 39-storey, 161.3 m tall skyscraper. It is the main seat of the government of Lombardy. It is located in the Centro Direzionale di Milano ("Directional Centre of Milan") district, north-west of the city centre. It was first inaugurated on 22 January 2010, and officially completed on 21 March 2010. After its completion, the Regione Lombardia skyscraper was briefly the tallest skyscraper both in Milan and in Italy, being taller than both the Telecom Italia Tower in Naples and the Pirelli Tower in Milan. It lost its supremacy to the Unicredit Tower (also located in Milan) in 2011. Palazzo Lombardia was designed by Pei Cobb Freed & Partners, the winners of an international design competition in 2004. The building won the 2012 International Architecture Award for the best new global design. Unicredit Tower The Unicredit Tower (Torre Unicredit) is a skyscraper in Milan, Italy. With a height of 231 metres , it is the tallest building in Italy. The building was designed by architect Cesar Pelli and was topped out on 15 October 2011, with the attachment of its spire. The building will serve as the new headquarters of UniCredit Bank.The Unicredit Tower is part of a larger development of new residential and business structures in Milan's Porta Nuova district, near Porta Garibaldi railway station. Is eighth in the ranking Emporis 2012, that rewards skyscrapers for excellence in their aesthetic and functional design. It has been pointed out that the nearby Palazzo Lombardia, at 161 metres, is still the tallest building in Italy as judged by its highest usable floor. The Unicredit Tower's height includes a dramatic spire of approximately 84 metres.The spire's LED lights can change colour in particular days like the flag of Italy's colours during the Italian national day Festa della Repubblica. .

These commissions are hailed as ‘iconic’ often even before they are erected, receive wide media attention, and have become the object of academic enquiry in architecture, geography, sociology and urban studies. However, as intellectual inquiry focuses on the proliferation of contemporary corporate ‘icons’, the question that Gottman (1966) posed back in 1966, i.e. whether, as the skyscraper spreads around the world it still has the same meaning and function as it had in the beginning, remains unanswered and becomes more relevant than ever. An analysis that links the proliferation of new to the banalisation of older corporate ‘icons’ is still to be undertaken.. In this contribution, I sketch an interpretative framework for interpreting this parallel process of ‘banalisation’ of old and proliferation of new ‘iconic’ corporate architecture as the Janus-faced manifestation of a qualitative shift in the relationship between capital and architecture.

Symcox, Co-chair “Exporting Mrs. Consumer: The American Woman in Italian Culture, 1945-1975” examines the development and growth of a mass consumer-based society in Italy after the Second World War. Employing a gendered and transnational approach, the dissertation puts women at the center of the analysis by specifically focusing on American female consumer culture’s influence on Italian women’s lives from 1945-1975. This study, in contrast to existing literature on the topic, provides a more comprehensive understanding of the nature of the models and messages of American female consumer culture in Italy during this period, how they influenced Italian women, and the extent of this culture’s influence. Furthermore, the analysis of the intersection of the modern “American woman” (the white middle-class suburban American ii housewife), consumerism, and Italian female culture and identities provides new insight into the unique cultural relationship between the United States and Italy following the Second World War.

The intensity of this revolutionary intellectual activity started to wane at the beginning of the 1980s. The exhibition La Presenza del Passato curated by Paolo Portoghesi at the first Venice Biennale of Architecture held in 1980 and Manfredo Tafuri’s publication of the book Storia dell’architettura italiana 1944-1985, through different ideological assumptions, marked the inception of a structural crisis in architecture and opened new horizons for the discipline in Italy. In the last decade scholars have dedicated their studies to the recovery of Italian architectural history of the ‘’60s and ’70s. On the contrary, less attention has been paid to the development of Italian architecture in the following years.

  • Place Victoria: a Joint Venture Between Luigi Moretti and Pier Luigi Nervi
    PLACE VICTORIA: A JOINT VENTURE BETWEEN LUIGI MORETTI AND PIER LUIGI NERVI Adrian Sheppard, FRAIC McGill University, Montreal INTRODUCTION lace Victoria stands alone amongst Moretti’s many buildings. The very fact that it deviates ideologically and formally from the rest of his oeuvre makes the project significant and P revelatory of Moretti’s architecture and of the man. The project neither follows the architectural principles of his prewar Rationalist period, nor those of his later expressionist phase. This divergence from his lifelong thinking is more the result of circumstances than the outcome of a re-evaluation of a well-defined design approach. The saga of the design process is a fascinating one for it illustrates how Moretti’s early ideas for the urban skyscraper changed continuously with his increased knowledge and awareness of the problem. He began by attempting to redefine the form and the use of the modern high-rise, but ended with an elegant landmark rather than a breakthrough. Instead of the heroic sculptural object he had hoped to create, he produced a highly functional and very beautiful tower. By Moretti’s earlier (and later) standards, the final version of Place Victoria is a remarkably disciplined and controlled work of architecture in which the usual concerns for self- expression and visual exhilaration are absent. This new formal clarity and structural logic are in great part attributable to his collaborator, engineer, Pier Luigi Nervi. The concept of Place Victoria is the outcome of a coming together of a radical architect and a conservative engineer. In culture and temperament, Nervi and Moretti were opposites.

  • Discover the Hidden Beauty of Milan, Italy's Most Lively City
    4 JUNE 2015 CATERINA POMINI 4856 DISCOVER THE HIDDEN BEAUTY OF MILAN, ITALY'S MOST LIVELY CITY Under the theme “Feeding the Planet, Energy for Life”, EXPO Milano 2015 opened a month ago. Despite “expopessimisti” (those who believe that the current Universal Exposition is a negative event), May went beyond expectations, with 2.7 million people visiting the fair! But, obviously, Milan is more than just Expo 2015 ;-) ... Cast aside by visitors from all over the world for the more common culture hubs of Rome, Florence and Venice, Milan has always been associated with fashion, design and business, but also with traffic and fog; that being said, if you take the time to explore beyond the façade, you will realize that the capital of Lombardy has much more to offer. Any example? As you may already know, the city is a must-stop for opera enthusiasts as well as a happy hour mecca, especially for workaholics; whatever your interests, whether it be art, sport, culture or entertainment, in Milan you will find plenty to see and do. A brief history of Milan Situated in the north of Italy, about halfway between Turin and Lake Garda, Milan was originally a Celtic-Insubrian settlement. In 222 BC, it was conquered by the Roman legions and re-baptized Medionalum, eventually becoming the second city of the Western Roman Empire (it was here that Emperor Constantine issued his epochal Edict, which granted freedom of worship to all Christians...). After being destroyed by the Huns and the Goths, the city flourished again under the Carolingians, particularly through the efforts of the archbishop Ansperto da Biassono; in the 11th century however, Milan constituted itself as a comune (“town council”) and became involved in a series of battles for primacy against its neighboring cities.

  • Potential Cities
    Scott Budzynski (Savannah) Potential Cities Imagining the New Buildings and urban construction are understood in this paper as repre- sentations of the city. Their meanings, however, are often invisible, posi- ting unrealized urban visions, which are both imbedded in and which call up chains of associations expressing desires and fears. Narratives of what the city should be often contain the rejection of the existing urban situa- tion. Understanding architectural objects as potential underscores their imaginary nature. Freud, for example, uses the Roman ruins in Civiliza- tion and its Discontents (1929) as a means to imagine stages of history. Yet, mea nings of the new can also be covered over and layered. Milan is a city with fragments of the new, which once projected an ideal urban space into the future. The potentiality of Milan’s postwar urban objects is ana- lyzed in relationship to narratives of the city and insertion is framed as an imagining into the city. http://www.archimaera.de ISSN: 1865-7001 urn:nbn:de:0009-21-42533 September 2015 #6 "Einfügen" S. 37-49 “E il destino di Milano è tenace: la cit- the quarter was never fully realized. tà viene distrutta, la popolazione dis- It could best be brought into perspec- persa, viene sottomessa da invasori di tive in the associative device of cine- non eccelsa qualità.
