Il Teatro della Modernità. La condizione dell’Architettura alla fine del secondo millennio

Revealed by numerous clues, the singular proximity between modern and late ancient culture is felt subtly but clearly in the off-center, flat, infinite and open-ended spaces of 20th-century art. On the other hand, as if it were a symmetrical inversion of the Greek world on the ideal axis of the Renaissance, a mirror image that is equal but opposite, the 20th century seems to repropose the unshakeable unity of ancient culture as an inevitable declaration of the fragment, as the solitude of a fragment forced to bear the weight of the world's unity.
