ARMANDO RONCA. Modern architecture in South Tyrol 1935 - 1970

Armando Ronca’s projects acquire a prominent role among the postwar buildings in Meran and Bozen. Although the modern postwar architecture was conceived as the architectonic expression of a new beginning, its appreciation at the time was limited. Our common suspicion towards a repulsive architecture is today slowly being replaced by the awareness that even at the time, architectonic and urban qualities emerged. The exhibition will show for the first time to the public Armando Ronca’s artwork, whose buildings are mainly to be found in Meran and Bozen. Ronca’s buildings have to be set and investigated within an interest towards the town’s historical development in order to trigger a confrontation with the urban configuration of Meran in the 21st century.
