The book brings together critical updates on the figure of Bruno Zevi, considering his various facets as a historian, critic, journalist and reference point for design culture in Italy and abroad. These researches underline the attention to the urban dimension, which anticipates much of the Global History, the relationships with “other” cultural contexts that have declined alternative nuances to the Zevian adage of Organic Architecture, the connections – including the personal ones – with giants of architectural design and historiography, the contacts with disciplines that do not exactly coincide with the consolidated concept of architecture, and the operative effects on the practice of architecture and history: the result is a Bruno Zevi as a Transnational Cultural Mediator. This is not a monograph, therefore, but a meeting point for different, not necessarily homogeneous, perspectives, which seems to us to be of international interest, not only European, and useful for outlining further facets of Zevi’s contribution to the culture of design.

Abstract: | The book brings together critical updates on the figure of Bruno Zevi, considering his various facets as a historian, critic, journalist and reference point for design culture in Italy and abroad. These researches underline the attention to the urban dimension, which anticipates much of the Global History, the relationships with “other” cultural contexts that have declined alternative nuances to the Zevian adage of Organic Architecture, the connections – including the personal ones – with giants of architectural design and historiography, the contacts with disciplines that do not exactly coincide with the consolidated concept of architecture, and the operative effects on the practice of architecture and history: the result is a Bruno Zevi as a Transnational Cultural Mediator. This is not a monograph, therefore, but a meeting point for different, not necessarily homogeneous, perspectives, which seems to us to be of international interest, not only European, and useful for outlining further facets of Zevi’s contribution to the culture of design. | |
