One of the most important works of 20th century architecture
The Centre Georges Pompidou was inaugurated in Paris on the 31st of January 1977.
40 years on from its construction, MAXXI is paying tribute to the building with a lecture by the architecture historian Francesco Dal Co, focusing on its conception, its form and the constructional technology employed.
As with the Tour Eiffel, to which owes much, the building designed by Renzo Piano, Richard Rogers and Peter Rice has become a symbol of Paris. A French project designed to restore to the city its role as the capital of modernity, its owes its form to an engineering technique, forging, developed at the dawn of the industrial revolution, and to a static invention from the 19th century. This too is a paradox, one of the many from which the Centre Pompidou emerged and which have made it an eloquent demonstration that the contemporaneity of the non-current continues to be an inexhaustible source of surprises.
