The entrance has been conceived as a sort of atlas, a space saturated with slide projections (from details to entire views). A selection of 23 projects illustrates instead the multiplicity of the typologies confronted in the Sixties to the projects currently underway: from the conference hall in Lucerne to the Institute of the Arab World in Paris; from the Guggenheim Temporary Museum of Art in Tokyo to the Quai Branly museum in Paris. While a photo reportage takes us inside eleven buildings.
In 2002 the show moves to Italy, Spain, the United States and Japan.
