Reinforced concrete, which has revolutionized architecture both in its structural components and in its morphology, still causes some rejection, because of its harshness, on those who have more consideration for singular aspects than for the global analysis of the work. Concrete links together architectural form and sculptural composition. The sight of a bridge whose arch draws a magnificent line high in the space, can wake up deeper emotional feelings than a sculpture made out of the richest materials. In the first case there is indeed an ingenious component in its construction, but we realize about it after our senses have recorded that previous emotion.
