这本书是关于罗马比利时学院建筑的一本出版物,该学院是比利时研究人员和艺术家的住所,也是科学和文化活动中心。由意大利人吉诺·奇普里亚尼(Gino Cipriani)和比利时人让·亨德里克斯·范登·博斯(Jean Hendrickx-Van den Bosch)于1937年至1939年间建造,风格既现代主义又装饰艺术,这座建筑不仅保留了原来的外观,而且在很大程度上保留了内部装饰,甚至家具。
This book is the first publication on the building of the Academia Belgica in Rome, a residence for Belgian researchers and artists and a centre for scientific and cultural activities. Constructed between 1937 and 1939 by the Italian Gino Cipriani and the Belgian Jean Hendrickx-Van den Bosch, in a style both modernist and Art Deco, the building has maintained not only its original exterior but also in large parts its interior decorations and even furniture.
The authors investigate the conception and realisation of the original building and its interior design programme, within the context of the cultural and political exchange between Belgium and Italy in the inter-war period. This richly illustrated volume includes original photographs of the building and its furniture, architectural plans, drawings and designs, plus a new series of commissioned photographs of the building by Belgian architectural photographer Maxime Delvaux.
