RATIONALISMUL

Rationalismul Italian: Gruppo 7


ITALIAN
GIUSEPPE TERRAGNI
Gruppo 7 a aparut ca o reactie la instruirea deficitara cu accent pe individualism si au
denumit ideologia ca fiind "Rationalism".
" Noua arhitectura, arhitectura adevarata, trebuie sa rezulte dintr-o aderenta rigida la logica si
rationalitate...nu pretindem ca vrem sa cream un stil , in schimb dorim ca prin folosirea
constanta a ratiunii, prin corespondenta perfecta dintre structura unei cladiri si scopul ei , sa
permitem nasterea unui stil" . Rationalistii in mod deliberat si-au asociat miscarea cu cea a
modernismului functionalist a lui Le Courbusier . Si- au bazat noua arhitectura pe calitatile pe
care Papini le -a criticat in Expozitia din 1925 de la Paris: articularea structurii, emanciparea si
ornamentatie minimala.

In 1936 the Italian government
made a successful application for
hosting in Rome the next World
Exhibition which was due in 1941.
The Exhibition was soon
postponed to 1942 to celebrate
the XXth anniversary of the Fascist
regime.
The area chosen for the exhibition
was some three miles south of the
walls, near the river and the road
to Ostia. The architect Marcello
Piacentini was asked to coordinate
the development of a plan having
the objective to create a new
quarter of Rome and not only to Giovanni Guerrini, Ernesto Bruno La Padula y Mario
build the temporary pavilions Romano

Giussepe Pagano scria in Casabella despre Novocomun ca fiind o capodopera moderna, e clar
insa ca a evaluat-o doar pe baza exteriorului : " O noua estetica s-a nascut, un nou mod de viata,
un nou mod de imaginare a habitatului. Aceasta casa anti-romantica, anti-decadenta nu s-a
nascut din capriciu ci s-a nascut din nevoile spirituale, din necesitati impuse de logica, acest
arhitect, aceasta casa care starneste azi protest si uimire, intr-un timp scurt va deveni norma, va
fi casa tuturor, casa viitorului".

G. Terragni, Danteum
The Danteum is an unbuilt monument to Dante Alighieri designed by the
modernist architect Giuseppe Terragni at the behest of Benito Mussolini's
Fascist government.
The structure was meant to be built in Rome on the Via dell'Impero. The
intention was to celebrate the famous Italian poet Dante Alighieri, whose
Divine Comedy glorifies Imperial Rome and extols the virtues of a strong
secular government. Though it was not constructed, the design was presented
at the 1942 Exhibition in Rome.
Compositionally, the Danteum is conceived as an allegory of the Divine Comedy
. It consists of a sequence of monumental spaces that parallel the narrator's
journey from the "dark wood" through hell, purgatory, and paradise. Rather
than attempting to illustrate the narrative, however, Terragni focuses on the
text's form and rhyme structure, translating them into the language of carefully
proportioned spaces and unadorned surfaces typical of Italian Rationalism.
Since the form of the Divine Comedy was itself influenced by the architectural
structure of Byzantine churches, the Danteum is in a sense a translation of a
translation. Because of the complex of literary, artistic, and architectural
meaning associated with the design, the theorist Aarati Kanekar regards it as
examplary of how a spatial structure can express a sophisticated poetic
meaning without an explicit "vocabulary" of architectural symbols.

4 THE ROOM OF HEAVEN (Paradiso)
5 THE EMPIRE ROOM
6 THE STEPS
The journey begins, as in Dante's poem,
with the crossing of the "Selva Oscura" (1),
represented by a dense network of columns.
The light filters through the cracks in this
space in the attic, just like in a forest where
the ground comes luca filtered by the leaves
and branches of trees. We must therefore
get into the "forest", avoid the "trees" and
find, as in a labyrinth marked by dense
columns, the entrance to the next room
