Caterina Marcenaro + Franco Albini for the Love of Art

I was immediately smitten when I visited Il Tesoro di San Lorenzo in Genoa many years ago (Fig. 1). I happened to discover the buried treasure that holds the sacraments and remnants of the crusades beneath the Duomo, and I was baffled by the fact that I was completely unfamiliar with it. I knew immediately that this modern architecture suited me, and I began a quest to learn more.
