Elephant Bearing an Obelisk
Architect Carlo Scarpa’s mental legacy for Venice is illustrated by blueprints, illustrations and amazing 16mm footage in Elephant Bearing an Obelisk. Scarpa refused to design during the fascist dictatorship (1922-1943). His post-war work created modest, modernist oases in this phenomenal city.
