His theory has two aspects: urban analysis and architectural project. The former presents a dynamic conception of the city, as if echoing the restless social situation of the time; the latter centers on monuments/fixed objects. Beyond this apparent opposition of motion/statics, this study explores the nexus between these two aspects of Rossi’s theory to clarify its meaning, and in light of this, to investigate the idea of 'monuments in revolution'.
