Sunday, April 5 at 11:00 AM Thousand Cypress Trees
Nature and architecture in the Memorial The vegetation planted in the Memorial is the result of complex and passionate designs. It is a green alphabet all to explore, composed of volumes and graphic signs poetically integrated into the architecture of Carlo Scarpa.
Sunday, April 26 at 11:00 AM Carlo Scarpa, the Brion Memorial and the relationship with Venice
Glass, wood, variants of glossy plaster, but also water and light... The materials and elements with which the Brion Memorial was built tell, in many voices, about Carlo Scarpa's deep bond with his city, Venice.
