More Description"Massimiliano Fuksas is a personality whose means of expression is architecture. He is entitled to this merit. The architecture he has produced is a self-portrait in which his character traits are evident; impetuosity, which in some cases becomes vehemence, the need to astonish and amaze, the desire to work in depth. These elements together are an explosive mixture to which Anna Maria Sacconi probably adds the necessary catalyst. His work continuously expresses an avant-guard genius. This is a provocation. It overturns the hierarchy of the values of life and puts now painting, now music, now architecture on the throne”. -- From the introduction by Paolo Portoghesi Written in Italian and English.
