	Aldo Rossi
		Rossi was born in Milan, Italy where his father was engaged in the manufacture of bicycles, bearing the family name, a business he says was founded by his grandfather.
		Rossi articulated with precocious assuredness both the monument's pristine volumes—cube, cylinder, and prism—and a public arena for their elemental identities as tower, column, and fountain.
		Rossi's apartment and studio, located in nineteenth-century enclaves of the city of Milan, appear, at first sight, unlikely laboratories for his far-flung projects; but their somewhat haunted familiarity, studded as they are with neatly framed drawings, models and objects of the architects invention, evokes a visit to the residence of a latter-day John Soane.

	ArtandCulture Artist: Aldo Rossi
		Aldo Rossi fought against the Modernist quest for urban renewal, which he felt produced architecture that tended to devalue the needs of people, to appear at odds with its surroundings, to lack identity, and unintentionally to serve as a tool of class or economic oppression.
		Rossi's theories are presented in his influential book, "L'architettura della Citta" (1966), in which he defines the role of traditional building types in the development of the urban environment.
		Rossi said of the block, "the corridors signify a lifestyle bathed in everyday occurrences, domestic intimacy, and varied personal relationships." Architecture for Rossi, though not explicitly designed with functionalism in mind, was still intended for an entirely human reality -- as opposed to the post-humanist work of some mainstream Modernists who created more alienating architecture.

	Some notes on continuity in the work of Adolf Loos and Aldo Rossi (Site not responding. Last check: )
		At the base of the difficult simplicity of Loos and Rossi's architecture is a prescient criticism of the "modern" movement, a precision of thought which unravels the dialectic between private and public, art and manufacture, culture and civilization.
		Rossi's architecture stands silent at the end of the Avant Garde for reasons that may indeed be read in contrast to that of Loos.

		"Aldo Rossi was a lake-lover like me. He was never happier than when he went to meditate and write at the old family house on Lake Mergozzo, I found out when we first met in the spring of 1980.
		As can be seen from the design of a coffee-maker "protected" by San Carlone of Arona, Aldo had a way of relating to our engineers that was worlds away from what we had experienced: he made sketches, presented them, and then waited for the engineers to make all their comments and changes, even sweeping ones.
		Rossi's attitude helped me to understand an approach to design not restricted to himself, but shared to some degree by all or almost all designers who have experience as architects.

		Luigi Ghirri / Aldo Rossi: Things Which Are Only Themselves is the first exhibition in a new CCA series concerned with the intersection between architecture and photography as it relates to the development and perception of the built world in our time.
		Their discussion is based on a sympathy between photographer and architect that is grounded in a shared fascination for a region - the Padana of northern Italy - and a shared belief both in the autonomous eye of the photographer and in the potential of that eye to reveal something new to the architect.
		Rossi was quick to recognize Ghirri's work as a "discourse " with his own, and to learn from it: "Ghirri's photographs of my work as well as my studio are that 'something new' that only an artist recognizes.

		Aldo Rossi's imaginary cityscape is marked by an exploration of what he called the type, the model or norm that gives rise to architecture.
		In this painting Rossi's buildings take the forms of a cube, a cone, a cylinder, and volumes based on the octagon and the rectangle, all forms that recur in his work, and all signifying functions integral to city life.
		Influenced by Canaletto's paintings of Venice, Rossi combines a painterly feeling for illusion, and for the space of the imagination, with a passion for structural and spatial types.

	CONTINUITY IN ARCHITECTURE » Aldo Rossi
		Rossi proposed that architecture stood outside the fluid tide of history, dependent for its power on the qualities of its geometry and accumulation of patina through its survival over time.
		Rossi’s text distinguished surface appearance from context, the atmosphere of a city being apparently replicable without any comprehension of the typology from which it was built, although this division would be a phenomenon which would bedevil the broader reception of his own work that was decades in the future.
		The monument’s elements refer to a number of examples of Rossi’s personal iconography, and therefore to his general typological collection of forms as expressed in previous works.
