Designing the Latina landscape: Graphic images of Italian Fascism
journal contribution
posted on 2019-07-03, 10:01 authored by Robert G. HarlandRobert G. Harland, Antonia LiguoriThe Latina Province in Italy is synonymous with Italian Fascism. This connection
is manifest in the different design perspectives that contributed to the formation
of the region’s visual character during the twenty-one years of Fascist rule
between 1922–43. Corporativist urbanism framed how Fascism’s stories, myths
and fables were told through numerous graphic objects that embellished new
towns during the region’s reclamation. Through the lens of graphic design as
urban design, this study provides a comprehensive understanding of how the
Latina landscape was conceived, planned and made at the macro, meso and micro
scale.
