Oltre l'ApocalisseArte, Architettura, Abbandono
L’immensità della tragedia umana che accompagna ogni catastrofe richiede sempre un momento di riflessione, che può condensarsi nell’istante di una fotografia, tradursi nel disincanto di un racconto oppure generare una nuova bellezza, attraverso l’arte e l’architettura. Dall’Interno perduto d’Emilia a L’Aquila, dai crinali d’Irpinia a…

These inequalities and segregations are often reinforced by the urban built environment: the planning of space and the design of architecture. This condition threatens attainment of wider social and economic prosp…

Costruito da dioPerché le chiese contemporanee sono brutte e i musei sono di…
Le chiese contemporanee assomigliano spesso a capannoni industriali, piscine, bar, autorimesse. Non hanno quasi mai la facciata, e i campanili sono un labile ricordo.

I rosoni sono sostituiti dai lucernai e le immagini sacre da anodine …
