2023/24 WS How much can places change over time?
From here i started to see Spilamberto, a small village near Modena where i grew up with my family, with new eyes. In this project the colour red will guide you to discover Spilamberto nowadays meanwhile the colour green will show you how was different life during the twenty years of fascism. Photos and real witnesses reveal the damage of the Second World War and unveil the history that is behind these monuments, that is sometimes forgotten.
A project made in the course
in situ
In 1974, French writer Georges Perec spent three days observing Place Saint-Sulpice, a public square, in Paris. While doing so, he took notes, about events and non-events – the whole idea was an experiment to capture a particular place in a literary and experimental way. Places are the visible manifestation of complex social interdependencies, which, beyond the obvious function of a place, provides information about its history and its relationship to the present, e.g. about its creation, preservation, destruction or appropriation, about ownership and power.
