Auditorium Parco della Musica Roma
For sketching class we visited Auditorium Parco della Musica Roma by the architect Renzo Piano. On the way we stopped into Palazzetto dello Sport by Pier Luigi Nervi and walked past Zaha Hadid's MAXXI (Museo Nationale delle Arti del XXI Secolo) which is still under construction. The Renzo Piano building was completed in 2002 and consists of three auditorium of various sizes and an area for outdoor performances. We got a tour from our very own professor, Marina. After this we went to Il Girasole, a building by Luigi Moretti.
