What makes Italian Brutalist buildings different to their counterparts in other countries? Containing over 140 exclusive photographs – ranging from private homes to churches and cemeteries via football stadia – across every region of the country, Brutalist Italy is the first publication to focus entirely on this subject.
Architectural photographers Roberto Conte and Stefano Perego (authors of Soviet Asia) have spent the past five years travelling over 20,000 kilometres documenting the monumental concrete structures of their native country.
Brutalism – with its minimalist aesthetic, favouring raw materials and structural elements over decorative design – has a complex relationship with Italian history. After World War II, Italian architects were keen to distance themselves from fascism, without rejecting the architectural modernism that had flourished during that era. They developed a form of contemporary architecture that engaged with traditional methods and materials, drawing on uncontaminated historical references. This plurality of pasts assimilated into new constructions is a recurring feature of the country’s Brutalist buildings, imparting to them a unique identity.
From the imposing social housing of Le Vele di Scampia to the celestial Our Lady of Tears Sanctuary, Syracuse – Brutalist Italy collects the most compelling examples of this extraordinary architecture for the first time in a single volume.
The book is dual language, with texts in both English and Italian.

«Ентузіасти бруталістичної італійської архітектури та любителі бетонної архітектури будуть розпещені мальовничим екскурсом Роберто Конте та Стефано Перего». - Шпалери*
Що відрізняє італійські бруталістичні будівлі від їхніх аналогів в інших країнах? Видання Brutalist Italy, що містить понад 140 ексклюзивних фотографій - від приватних будинків до церков, цвинтарів і футбольних стадіонів - з усіх регіонів країни, є першим виданням, повністю присвяченим цій темі.
Архітектурні фотографи Роберто Конте та Стефано Перего (автори книги «Радянська Азія») за останні п'ять років проїхали понад 20 000 кілометрів, документуючи монументальні бетонні споруди своєї рідної країни.
Бруталізм - з його мінімалістичною естетикою, що надає перевагу сировині та структурним елементам, а не декоративному оформленню - має складні стосунки з італійською історією. Після Другої світової війни італійські архітектори прагнули дистанціюватися від фашизму, не відкидаючи при цьому архітектурного модернізму, який процвітав у ту епоху. Вони розробили форму сучасної архітектури, яка використовує традиційні методи та матеріали, спираючись на незабруднені історичні посилання. Ця множинність минулого, асимільована в нових конструкціях, є повторюваною рисою бруталістських будівель країни, надаючи їм унікальної ідентичності.
Від імпозантного соціального житла Ле Веле ді Скамп'я до небесного святилища Богоматері Сліз, Сиракузи - Бруталістська Італія вперше в одному томі збирає найпереконливіші приклади цієї неординарної архітектури.
Книга є двомовною, з текстами англійською та італійською мовами.
