NICOLA BRAGHIERI
ANALOGOUS POSTCARDS
VOL 4
Nicola Braghieri, with clarity, expressive eloquence and a good dose of irony, defines his own image of architecture as an alternative to the overwhelming banality of current production in the field. An architectural image that stubbornly pursues a non-virtual relationship with research, with the results of an analysis systematically conducted on the historical body of the city, and on the "corpus" of references adopted by the modern tradition regarding the typological and morphological transformations of the constructed world. Braghieri’s postcard mock-ups become elements of assessment and continuity with the tradition of the constructed city, its physical character, and its cultural materiality in the widest sense of the term.
