Abstract: “Leaving aside personal facts and clearing the field of memories, the subject of Mongiardino cannot be filed away amid the silence of the historians of architecture and the cult of the disciples. It is a necessary to have at hand the instruments that serve to avoid those superlatives that cover empty criticism. Almost as if it were a master-key, the traditional praise of the artisans who, day after day, followed the career of the architect paved with success can no longer be used. Hand in hand with this success there was an exclusion from history, the like of which has no comparison. At most a mention among fashionable trends of the period. And what is the reason for this? No public buildings? No enlistment in the ranks of Rationalism, and of Postmodernism then? The sin of having worked in the houses of some of most powerful people in the world? Why did this not happen to Tommaso Buzzi? Or why is it not happening to Peter Marino? What a subject for a contemporary Francis Haskell.” Giovanni Agosti
