• Abstract:

  This article seeks to remember and, with this, reaffirm the figure of this great architect, who despite the passage of time continues to impact the world of architecture, both for his great architectural work, as well as for his literary work and his great influence on later architectural styles.
  Every year the Corso Internazionale di Architettura Andrea Palladio takes place in Vicenza, where new perspectives on his work are added and, at the same time, participants are impacted by the tours of some of his most prestigious works.
  We believe that insisting on the knowledge of Andrea Palladio's work at this time is important for the new generations of architects, who are looking for a professional path in life and who, quite possibly, only have as an architectural reference, the work of some contemporary architects, which limits their possibilities of creation and development.
