Headed by Marco, one of the grandchildren of Pier Luigi Nervi, the association has been engaged in coordinating the scientific research and financial support that allowed the birth and development of the
international traveling exhibition “Pier Luigi Nervi Architecture as Challenge“. In addition to this exhibition, which has being enriched with content as the research progressed and developed along its international itinerary, the association is engaged in several other areas: we accomplished an
extensive recovery of Nervi’s writings, enabling among other things
the new edition of the Norton Lectures given by Pier Luigi Nervi at Harvard University in 1962.
Other fields of focus for our association are
educational activities: besides past research projects like the NerViLab, an important result of our work in this field has been the contest elaborated for the Italian Ministry of Education Pier Luigi Nervi:
Costruire correttamente, which addressed itself to all grades in Primary and Secondary School. More recently, our organisation has entered a partnership with the Politecnico di Milano,
Lecco Campus, where we will be soon inaugurating the Laboratorio Nervi. The Pier Luigi Nervi Project Association is also committed to the
conservation and rehabilitation of structures by Nervi, not only in Italy but also on an international level, with the hope of contributing to a scientific awareness and protection of Modernity's architectural heritage, of which the structures by Nervi remain among its highest expressions.
