Ireneo Aleandri

Italian architect (1795–1885)

Ireneo Aleandri belongs to the record of architecture as a figure whose buildings outlasted the taste that commissioned them.

The record lists Ireneo Aleandri as Italian architect (1795–1885).

Ireneo Aleandri was born at San Severino Marche in 1795. His recorded nationality is Kingdom of Italy.

Baroque and neoclassical building served courts, churches and states, and architecture became an instrument of display.

He is recorded as architect and engineer.

Among his best-known works are Sferisterio di Macerata, Teatro Nuovo Gian Carlo Menotti and Ex mattatoio civico di Spoleto. Architecture is the art that cannot be avoided: people live inside the argument.

That the work was built in Kingdom of Italy shaped it: climate, materials, planning law and who holds the budget all decide what can actually be built.

Ireneo Aleandri died in 1885, aged 90. The buildings remain, still in use by people who never knew the name - which is the particular afterlife architecture offers.
