Who is responsible for dead places and what can we learn from them?

Metabau2

Sebastian Carl-Marcus Haaf

Metabau is a project that deals with dying places and their perception by our society. Metabau2 shows rooms of the Pension Bellavista (located on the Virgolo in Bolzano), in a barren desert landscape. Inside the space you can hear the sound of birds and rain recorded at the Pension Bellavista.

A project made in the course

Studio Exhibit | Yesterday Tomorrow: Memory in Art

As a first assignment, the students were asked to “inhabit” the work of one of the artists who participated in the exhibition “tell me about yesterday tomorrow”. Starting from there, they should acquire tools to develop their own work. In the second assignment, following the historical perspective introduced by the very same exhibition, they should develop a personal work dealing with the topic of “memory”. The supporting modules provided the students with historical and theoretical insight on the topic of the studio, and offered technical tools to exhibit the resulting works online.
