Jan. 28 – With Bergamo origins, the twelfth of fourteen children, born in Slovenia and burried in Gorizia, architect and urban planner Max Fabiani was an icon of creativity, elegance, sophistication, an inventor and a painter, sculptor, writer, poet and graphic. Max Fabiani will be at the Italian Institute of Culture in Ljubljana, the star of a conference that invites locals to discover his genius. Starting with the book by Renato Ferrari “Il gelso dei fabiani” which pays homage to the figure of an architect (born in Štanjel in 1865 – Gorizia 1962) that left a mark in European architectural thought. With his large architectural and urban projects in Vienna, Trieste and Gorizia, Fabiani was one of the protagonists of the lively artistic and social climate of the last century, marked by the rise of many avant-gardes. Fabiani found his highest expression in the shadow of the multinational Habsburg Empire. The meeting on the brilliant architect is scheduled for Wednesday, February 4 at 6pm (at the headquarters of the Italian Institute of Culture, Breg 12) and will see the participation of Peter Krecic, professor at the School of Design.
