Vittorio Mazzucconi's works have a more complex meaning than those of the major part of contemporary architecture, influenced from different tendencies like rationalism, postmodernism, geometrical abstraction, gigantism, “technological baroque ”, while they are instead nourished by an historical humus, a religious sense, a poetic interpretation. It's an ensemble of works that have their roots in the past, either showing its destruction (i.e. the Avenue Matignon facade in Paris) or its evocation (i.e. the New Agora in Athens) or its mysterious transformation in a future. (i.e. the “Dawning City" project for the new Florence city centre, or the Palatine Pyramid in Rome). At the same time, Mazzucconi embraces modernity, not the one that is blinded by the materialism of our time but the one of a new harmony between sentiment and reason, with the same integration between the past and the future, beyond our present and its divisions. This will be the modernity of a new spiritual opening, as it's expressed in the Mazzucconi's “Arks”.( particularly in the Cathedral Ark of Milan) His work is not limited to architecture but, with the paintings, explore the unconscious, the shadow, the Eros, and, with the books, develop a philosophical thinking and the depths of a mystic aspiration.
