Ludovica Galeazzo is an architectural and urban historian whose research focuses on Venetian architecture in the early modern period with a special interest in new technologies to demonstrate the process of the city’s change over time.

She received her PhD in History of Arts from the Graduate School Ca’ Foscari-Iuav in Venice and was later a Research Fellow at the Iuav University of Architecture (2013-2016) and a Postdoctoral Associate at Duke University (2016-2017).

She has been a member of the collaborative initiative Visualizing Venice/Visualizing Cities since 2011 and has worked as assistant curator on three international exhibitions on early modern Venetian history displayed at the Ducal Palace (Water and Food in Venice, 2015; Venice, the Jews, and Europe, 2016) and the Nasher Museum of Art at Duke (A Portrait of Venice: Jacopo de’ Barbari’s View of 1500, 2017). She also serves on the editorial board of the Architectural Histories journal (EAHN).

Ludovica Galeazzo has published extensively on the relationship between architecture, urban studies, and social history, and the wide-ranging issue of place-making processes. Her publications include the monograph Venezia e i margini urbani. L’insula dei Gesuiti in età moderna (IVSLA 2018), the co-edited volume Acqua e cibo a Venezia. Storie della laguna e della città (Marsilio 2015), and more than thirty essays and articles.

She was awarded the ERC 2021 Starting Grant for the project Venice’s Nissology. Reframing the Lagoon City as an Archipelago, which aims to reconstruct the transformations of Venice’s lagoon islands alongside their interwoven relationships in a geographically- and temporally-based digital environment.
