DESCRIPTION:Léa-Catherine Szacka\nThrough the work of the Italian archite
 ct\, theorist\, and historian Paolo Portoghesi (1931-2023)\, it is possibl
 e to demonstrate how the triangulation of three spheres of knowledge – a
  renewed interest in the historical language of architecture\, an intertwi
 ned link between architecture and politics and an unprecedented use of mas
 s media – Portoghesi managed to build and sustain his postmodern project
 . Based on the  book Paolo Portoghesi: Architecture Between History\, Po
 litics and Media (Micheli and Szacka\, Bloomsbury\, 2023)\, this interven
 tion will dissect and contextualize Portoghesi's work beyond the borders o
 f Italian architectural culture\, where it has traditionally been discusse
 d - and often misinterpreted.\n\nLéa-Catherine Szacka is Senior lecturer
  (Associate Professor) in Architectural Studies at the University of Manch
 ester and Director of the Manchester Architecture Research Group (MARG). S
 he published and edited several books including Exhibiting the Postmodern
  (2016)\, Biennials/Triennials: Conversations on the Geography of Itiner
 ant Display (2019)\, Paolo Portoghesi: Architecture Between History\, Po
 litics and Media (2023)\, and\, more recently\, It’s About Time: The A
 rchitecture of Climate Change (2024). Since 2024 Szacka serves as Vic
 e-President of the European Architectural History Network (EAHN).
