THE PERCEPTION OF ARCHITECTURE
curated by Claudio Nardi
First EditiomFlorence
The Perception of Architecture is a project promoted by the Accademia delle Arti del Disegno Firenze and by the Fondazione Architetti Firenze, in collaboration with the Institut français Firenze, Fondazione Sistema Toscana, Accademia di Belle Arti di Firenze.
Architecture is the context that welcomes, explains and conditions everything.
Architecture is the place that belongs to us as a daily theater of life, yet it escapes our attention, while places silently and deeply shape relationships and people. Architecture, more than any other art, defines, or rather, is our planet without our knowledge.
To start again to realize this, an immediate, emotional and instinctive learning tool can be useful: the Cinema, which, speaking obliquely of architecture, reactivates the awareness and perception of what has already been around us for a long time and in our daily life. The architect must therefore be author and screenwriter, tell stories that will and have been.
The Places of tales
The First Edition of the Festival will take place from 20 to 22 February 2020 and includes, in addition to the five film screening (ticket 5 €), a Speech The Architect’s Escape, by arch. Giorgio Scianca and arch. Marcella Gabbiani of Dedalo Minosse Cinema at the Institut français Florence and Dialogues on The Perception of Architecture and The Places of the tales at Cinema La Compagnia with many contributions.
In addition, a day will be partly dedicated to guided tours of cinema and architecture, a route that will cross the city of Florence to get to know the places and buildings featured in numerous films.
Full price film’s ticket 5 €.
"Separato magnetico"
At the same time as the event, “Separato magnetico” (name inspired by Bande à Part by Godard) will be screened, a didactic and cultural video collage, edited by Claudio Nardi in collaboration with Diaframma, which through a fast and instinctive separation of elements, places and film content (including Le Mepris and Mon oncle, in addition to those proposed in the review) will try to suggest a different way of reading the films, a sort of “video instructions for use” to perceive and “discover” the architecture that is in and around every story.
“Separato magnetico” will be visible through displays on monitors at the Palazzina Reale, at the Cinema La Compagnia and at the Institut français according to their respective opening hours and according to the dates shown in the program below.
