Piranesi
1999.05.17

As far as what he says about (interpretes) Piraneis's Campo Marzio, Tafuri is just plain wrong. No one should agree with what Tafuri says about the Campo Marzio unless they like to be misguided and mistaken. I feel very strongly about this because I have proof positive that what Tafuri says about the Campo Marzio has already led various (and even prominent) architects astray. I believe it is wrong to perpetuate incorrectness. My "disagreement" with Tafuri stems only from my desire and quest to see things correctly.

What's even worse in the Tafuri/Campo Marzio case is that practically the whole rest of The Sphere and the Labyrinth is based on what he says in the beginning. Since what he says in the beginning is wrong, it seems logically that what follows is likely to be wrong as well.

I know for certain that at this point no one else alive today (or perhaps even ever) has studied Piranesi's Campo Marzio as much as I have, with the exception of Piranesi himself.

It just so happens that I yesterday began to outline the "mistakes" that Tafuri makes.
