Publication on the exhibition catalogue, Milan, ITA
Today, we talk again about the necessity to re-evaluate the theory within the contemporary architectural debate. It is a necessity to re-collocate the architect in the middle of various issues, in an epoch of big urgencies and transformations of the urban and rural life, from the scale of the city, to the domestic environment. In very complex historical times, the architect sought refuge “into” the paper, using the drawing as a tool to spread his theories and to build a theoretical “skeleton” for the new practice. Can the drawing make us reason again on the conceptual and political potential of architecture? A publication containing the essays of the four studios invited to the exhibition and the results of the Call for Images presented at the opening day.
