| Summary: | During the last Congress of the Unione Italiana per il Disegno,
held in Naples, the 2017 UID Gold Medal was awarded
to Anna Sgrosso with the aim of rewarding the complex of
scientific and cultural activities promoted at the University
of Naples Federico II over a long and prestigious career.
Thanks to her studies, both in architectural and mathematical
fields, Anna Sgrosso has revitalized Descriptive Geometry,
finding new expressive and communicative impulse
in the study of its projective roots and in the links that this
discipline establishes with the world of figuration and art.
In particular, Anna Sgrosso’s proposal to use traditional representation
systems (Monge, axonometry, perspective) in an unconventional manner led to an innovative interpretation
of architecture –realized or in progress–, in which it
is possible to identify structure and geometric genesis of
the spaces.
