LANDSCAPE IN ART AND SCIENCE

INTERNATIONALWORKSHOP May 26 - June 6

Georgy Kepes, the founder of the Center for Advanced Visual Studies, inaugurated in 1947 a new way of thinking urban space as hologram of landscape. The workshop reactivates this line of research, through an interpretation of the landscape as a new experiment in urban disciplines, able to replace the ascertained statutes of architecture and urban design.

The attempt of the workshop is to propose a renewal of our discipline that arises primarily from a conceptual experiment and afterward as a formal result. So that an elemental process in art and science (to chose an ideal natural territory, to conceptualize it and to project) will result in a new spatial territory.

The student will be called to define a new taxonomy of design based on Nature, leading to a non-real city, but to a place of re-definition of the fundamental codes of architectural culture, its hierarchies and its practices. In particular, he will be called to build a micro and heterotrophic microcosm - an hologram - that represents a new idea of the city as "Primitive Nature”: as well as in the paintings of Rousseau and in Borges’s thought, Nature, its bestiary, its codes, is proposed as a new archeology of language and of its role, experiencing new projectual categories that undermine the compositional language in the strict sense.

The aim of the workshop is to build 30 experiments in vitro, 30 "Genetic Gardens" definable as landscape islands within a generic urban context, between art and science.

The game and the paradox will be the project's tools.
