68 Mengoni, Giuseppe
SUBJECT AREA: Architecture and building[br]b. 1829 Bologna, Italy d. 1877[br]Italian architect who designed one of the most impressive of the great ferrovitreous shopping arcades of the nineteenth century, that of the Galleria Vittorio Emmanuele II in the centre of Milan.[br]The Milan Galleria (1865–77), unsurpassed among existing arcades of this type, has a cruciform plan, its lofty arms barrel-vaulted and the crossing covered by a domed octagon. The entrance to the arcade, from the Piazza del Duomo, takes the form of an imposing classical triumphal arch. The whole urban scheme involved the enlargement of the cathedral square and alterations to the Piazza della Scala, which is situated at the opposite end of the arcaded gallery. The stone, iron and glass structure is of high quality, with careful attention to detail. In good restorative condition, the Galleria has always provided an important function in the life of the centre of the city of Milan.DY -
69 Sant'Elia, Antonio
SUBJECT AREA: Architecture and building[br]b. 30 April 1880 Como, Italyd. 10 October 1916 Monfalcone, Italy[br]Italian architectural designer and town planner.[br]Sant'Elia studied in Milan and in Bologna. In 1912 he began work in Milan, where he became part of the futurist movement in architecture. In the short time before the outbreak of the First World War, Sant'Elia began to create his designs for the city of the future; he was a talented draughtsman and made hundreds of imaginative drawings to illustrate his ideas.Fascinated by the possibilities of technology and by building in the USA, he was a visionary of future modern architecture. He planned cities for Italy, and in 1914 many of his drawings were shown at an exhibition of the Nuove Tendenze group in Milan. His Città Nuova was included; it envisaged electric power, skyscrapers, pedestrian precincts and traffic moving on overhead roadways at two and three different levels—a separation of pedestrian and wheeled traffic put forward by Leonardo da Vinci four centuries earlier in his sketchbooks. Sant'Elia was a socialist and developed his schemes as part of his suggestions for an ideal society.He was killed in action in 1916, but his drawings have survived and have influenced later work.[br]Further ReadingF.Tentori, 1955, Le Origini Liberty di Antonio Sant'Elia, Rome.——1955, L'Architettura Chronache e Storia, Rome.Rayner Banham, 1981, "Antonio Sant'Elia", Architectural Design.DY -
