Piranesi's etchings became points of reference for artist and architects of the twentieth and twenty-first centuries, but also for photographers, writers, filmmakers, and psychoanalysts. Prof. Victor Plahte Tschudi (Oslo School of Architecture and Design) explores the complex appropriation and continual discoveries of Piranesi in the modern age. The Norwegian Institute in Rome is delighted to introduce Piranesi and the Modern Age to the Roman public! In addition to the author himself, comments will be given by the leading Piranesi experts, Prof. Mario Bevilacqua (La Sapienza) and Dr. Clare Hornsby (British School at Rome).
