Carlo Scarpa (June 2, 1906 – November 28, 1978) is one of the most controversial and underappreciated architects of the 20th century. He was not permitted to practice architecture because of his refusal to sit the pro forma professional exam administrated by the Italian Government after World War II. That’s why those who worked with him, his clients, associates, craftspersons, called him “Professor”, rather than “architect”. He worked only associating with an architect.
The Brion sanctuary in San Vito d’Altivole near Treviso, Italy is regarded as a masterpiece of modernist architecture. It was commissioned in 1969 by Onorina Tomasi Brion, widow of the founder of the Brionvega company (manufacturing unusual televisions and electronics during the ’60s). What started with the idea of a small tomb became a real garden not only for the Brion family, but for the whole town.

So much so, many argue it is Houghton who was the first ever abstract artist, who delved deep into metaphysical, spiritual and subconscious worlds long before her male contemporaries caught up. In her day she earned critical attention and praise, but as is the case with so many female artists, her name became lost through the sands of time.
