Application Description

The application is an integral component of a museum installation dedicated to "The Analogous City," a renowned artwork collaboratively created by Aldo Rossi, Eraldo Consolascio, Bruno Reichlin, and Fabio Reinhart for the Venice Biennale of Architecture in 1976. This innovative application leverages augmented reality to enhance the experience of a reproduction of "The Analogous City," which is accessible at http://archizoom.epfl.ch. It overlays the artwork with multiple layers, revealing a comprehensive set of references that form the collage.

This application is essential for engaging with the digital elements of the exhibition "Aldo Rossi - The Window of the Poet, Prints 1973-1997," which is being showcased at the Bonnefanten Museum in Maastricht, Archizoom EPFL in Lausanne, and GAMeC in Bergamo. By acquiring a printed map of the Analogous City from Archizoom, enthusiasts can replicate the interactive museum experience anywhere and at any time. The map includes insightful texts by Aldo Rossi, Fabio Reinhart, and Dario Rodighiero, enhancing the understanding and appreciation of the artwork.

"The Analogous City" (La Città Analoga) was envisioned as a true urban project, integrating various historical and architectural elements. Notable components include Giovanni Battista Caporali's drawing of Vitruvius' city (1536), Galileo Galilei's depiction of the Pleiades Constellation (1610), Tanzio da Varallo's painting "David and Goliath" (ca 1625), Francesco Borromini's plan of San Carlo alle Quattro Fontane (1638-1641), the Dufour topographic map (1864), Le Corbusier's general plan of the chapel of Notre Dame du Haut (1954), and several architectural projects by Aldo Rossi and his collaborators.

Aldo Rossi reflected on "The Analogous City" in Lotus International n. 13 in 1976, stating, "Between past and present, reality and imagination, the analogous city is perhaps simply the city to be designed day by day, tackling problems and overcoming them, with a reasonable certainty that things will ultimately be better."
