First in the heroic phase and then in the mature phase of the reinforced concrete, then with the affirmation of hi-tech construction methods in the 1970s and 1980s and finally with the eruption of digitally controlled technologies. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eTECHNOSCAPE\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e explores this alliance, responding to MAXXI's mission to look towards the future of our planet and the disciplines that modify its spaces. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe volume follows the dual register of the exhibition, first dealing with how technology is making architecture, urban planning and other related disciplines more aware of their technical and scientific responsibility and capable of opening up new lines of research. The focus shifts then to structural engineering, comparing current masterpieces with previous historical modernist examples.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eMaristella Casciato\u003c\/b\u003e is Associate Professor of History of Architecture at the Aldo Rossi Faculty of Architecture, University of Bologna.
