Abstract

A suite of montages that close-read the formal and associative syntax of Aldo Rossi’s analogical architecture. Putting forward a reading of the disarticulation, cutting apart and separation of elements and forms in Rossi’s projects the analogue is proposed as a critical device toward a rethought methodological and theoretical project.
