George Joseph Ranalli (born 1946) [1] is an American modernist architect, academic, scholar, and curator, based in New York City, [2] and a fellow of the American Institute of Architects.[3]

Early life and education

A native of The Bronx New York, Ranalli attended Mount St. Michael Academy high school.[4] He was inspired to become an architect at the age of about 13 when he saw the then-unfinished Guggenheim Museum designed by Frank Lloyd Wright.[5] He graduated from Mount Saint Michael Academy in The Bronx in 1964. From 1967 to 1968, he attended New York Institute of Technology, and Pratt Institute, Brooklyn, New York, where he received a Bachelor of Architecture in 1972. [6] Thereafter, Ranalli attended Harvard Graduate School of Design, Cambridge, Massachusetts, earning a Master of Architecture in 1974. Upon graduation, Ranalli traveled on a research grant throughout Europe before returning to New York. [5]

Career

Ranalli founded George Ranalli, Architect in New York in 1977. [7] In his early career, architecture critic Paul Goldberger described Ranalli in a New York Times article (1985) as "one of the better younger architects" working in the Modernist idiom. [8] Michael Sorkin (1991) later referred to Ranalli as "a creator and preserver of worlds, a precisionist, who views architecture with compassion and respect." [9]Ranalli is credited with carrying forward the lessons of Italian architect Carlo Scarpa in new settings. [10][11] Architectural Record (2015) described Ranalli's career as Gesamtkunstwerk. [12]
