On the 27th of July 1980<\/strong> with the title La Presenza del Passato<\/strong>, the first international architecture show was held by the Biennale di Venezia (curated by Paolo Portoghesi<\/strong>). Portoghesi also proposed the exhibition La Strada Novissima<\/strong> in which 20 international architects created 20 life-size facades to trigger a reflection on the theme of the road and to create a concrete image of a different way of thinking about architecture<\/p>\n

Almost forty years later, the MAXXI<\/strong> returns to reflect on this theme through the great
\nexhibition La Strada. Where the world is created, Paolo<\/strong>\u00a0Portoghesi<\/strong> curates INSIDE THE<\/strong>
\nNOVISSIMA ROAD<\/strong>, hosted at the Archives Architecture Center from 7 December 2018<\/strong> to 28 April 2019<\/strong>, where a deep focus is placed on this crucial moment in the history of
\ntwentieth century architecture which paved the way for international discussion on
\npostmodernism.<\/p>\n

La Strada Novissima proposed in its space a proper 70 metre path, with 10 facades per
\nside, all in their full size, designed by Ricardo Bofill, Costantino Dardi, Frank O. Gehry,
\nMichael Graves, GRAU, Allan Greenberg, Hans Hollein, Arata Isozaki, Josef Paul
\nKleihues, Rem Koolhaas, L\u00e9on Krier, Charles W. Moore, Paolo Portoghesi con
\nFrancesco Cellini e Claudio D\u2019Amato, Franco Purini e Laura Thermes, Massimo
\nScolari, Thomas Gordon Smith, Robert A. M. Stern, Stanley Tigerman, Osvald
\nMathias Ungers, Robert Venturi-Denis Scott Brown-John Rauch. Each facade, 9 metre long and 7 wide, is an expression of the style and research of the author, and all together, in their diversity, compose an urban pathway which we are invited to cross. It is an expression of plurality of voices, plurality if letters, and a way of reappropriating the past.<\/p>\n
