 Graziella Zannone Milan, Mercedes Daguerre, Architetture nel territorio Canton Ticino 1970-2000, SVIZZERA 2001 The guide presents 261 buildings by 90 architects who, over the past 30 years, have characterized local architectural production. The aim of this research is to investigate which have been the buildings and who have been the actors of the different design approaches emerging in the variegated contemporary Ticinese architecture and suggest possible heirs, the new actors and recent developments through a selection that, in addition to the implicit critical judgement in each choice, tries to balance the different requirements leading to an pluralistic inventory of representative architectural objects. The form of the work is that of an annotated travel guide including drawings, photographs, biographies, bibliographies, dissertations, videos of interviews of critics and of the most important Ticinese architects and promenades architecturales in seven particularly significant buildings. The proposed itineraries are structured in order to respond to the different needs. The most demanding users will be able to customize their itinerary and print it in the classical guide-book form. Mercedes Daguerre graduated in architecture in 1985 from the University Institute of Architecture in Venice. She has been teaching and conducting historical research in various European and American universities. She researched end of the century Ticinese architecture and contemporary Swiss architecture in several publications. She is currently member of the editorial staff of the magazine "Casabella". Graziella Zannone Milan attended the Higher Technical School in Lugano and the University Institute of Architecture in Venice. Besides practicing as an architect she conducts research on 1800s architecture in Ticino and currently concerns herself with contemporary Swiss architecture. She is on the editorial board of "archi", review of the Swiss Society of Engineers and Architects. |
