Hi Krista

I hope you still check this blog. I found it online while I was looking for images of ugly Modernist architecture in Italy. You have an eye for it! I am working on a documentary about an Italian architect, and we are looking for images of ugly Italian architecture to use in the show - specifically Modernist. I am wondering if you have any more pics of ugly modernism in Italy, and you might be willing to let us use them in the program? email me at ereeves@wttw.com Chicago public tv station. thanks!
