I know there are many people who already talk about L'auditorium di Oscar Niemeyer a Ravello-Modernism, but it is new information for me. I was planned to cancel to write about it, but the eye of this building just winked to me. hahaha. I don't lie, I like the eye shape of this building. This building designed by a famous Brazilian architect Oscar Ribeiro de Almeida Niemeyer Soares Filho (Oscar Niemeyer). Oscar Niemeyer is universally recognized as architectural genius of our day and he has succeeded in the mission to create a architectonic complex that was both simple an bold, able to stand out from but non contrast with its surroundings.
The Auditorium is reached by means of an oblong square from which it’s possible to admire both the breathtaking panorama and the remarkable building. It just might go down in history as one of the most controversial architectural projects ever constructed on the Amalfi Coast. But the fact that it was completed – especially in a UNESCO World Heritage protected area – is a feat in itself. Now, amid the continuing controversy, it remains to be seen if the Auditorium will be utilized to is maximun potential as a setting for concerts and events during the winter months.
“It is not the right angle that attracts me, and even the straight line, hard, unyielding man-made. What attracts me is the free and sensual curve. The curve that I meet in the mountains of my country, in my favorite lady, in the clouds of the sky and sea waves. It’s made of curves throughout the universe. The curved universe of Einstein.” (Oscar Niemeyer)
