Evoking the New City : Milan from Post-World War II Reconstruction through the Economic Miracle Paperback / softback
by Scott Joseph Budzynski
Part of the Architecture series
Paperback / softback
Description
The postwar period in Milan was a time in which the transformational possibilities of the Lombard metropolis were palpable.
Architects looked to the future in planning an ideal city onto a pre-existing one heavily damaged in World War II.
In doing so, they looked back to the relatively young tradition of modern architecture in Italy, while simultaneously re-ordering its narratives.
Concentrating on three major elements of the new city, skyscrapers, housing, and city planning, this book approaches Milan as an ideal city of the postwar period through architecture, film, and print media.
