Water, the essence of space in the work of Carlo Scarpa
Francisco del Corral del CampoCarlo Scarpa, the carver of water, a mythical and intense figure like his own city, is revealed to us throughout the pages of this book as the master who was able to crystallize the forms of water in his architecture, reinterpreting the purest Venetian tradition .
Francisco del Corral offers us in this book a vision of the work of the great Italian architect based on a watery analogy. It is appropriate to see Carlo Scarpa's work within the framework of a generative dynamics and to see both the project and its construction in a gradual unfolding defining itself in time. The image of water can help us to interpret the mutable nature of the project. An aquatic environment would be the natural habitat in which to explain the event of the coagulations that distinguish the course and direction of the architect's shifting work. Water will also be the element that will serve as the common thread during the presentation and intense analysis of Francisco del Corral.
