abstract:
The dissemination of the new architectural photography (linked to an unprecedented way of conceiving space and the development of modern architecture) in the 1920’s also brought architects in Italy closer to the use of the camera. This article has the objective of examining in what way these architects used photography during the years between the two world wars, in which, as in other countries, photography continued to represent not only a fundamental tool for their formation, but also as a powerful channel for the dissemination and propaganda of modern architecture.
