| Sumario: | [EN] Alvar Aalto and Jean Arp converge in the early thirties. This means another step in the creative process of the Finnish master. The study delves into this artistic link and Aalto’s, singular and not casual at all, parallel experimentation with free forms. A foray into a brief sequence of works by the Finnish architect during those years, based on an analysis of the most significant sketches, allows a reflection on the continuous Aaltian search for the nature of new objects, and denotes his incessant effort to find a coherent internal structure. This research is materialized in the form of architecture with the construction of the Lapua Pavilionin 1938, to whose project, after this investigation, the authors decide to assign a sketch that could, erroneously, had been assigned to a different project at Alvar Aalto Foundation. |
