DIE LIKE A CITY '

is how the soul of a dying city, its historic center.

These are the steps most interesting an article published in the Corriere della Sera of yesterday, 28 October signed by Raffaele Palumbo .

And I ask myself: WHY

'LET THIS HAPPEN?!?

<< So the center is dying Aquila
not started or demolitions or renovations. And now the weather may get worse still things

L'AQUILA - The soul of the city. With these words Aquila's refer to the historical center, in practice the city of L'Aquila-only device. But nearly seven months, the center is called "red zone", no one can set foot and to enter only the Fire Department and the companies involved in shoring up damaged buildings and to complete the relocation of homes left standing. Yet seven months later, the center of the Eagle is not too different from how it appeared after the earthquake. The ruins are so amazing, along with debris, dust, garbage and all those bits of shattered lives that we had seen a few hours after the quake. Personal items, photos, clothing, dolls, computer monitors, mixed with pieces of plaster, bricks, cornices come down.
NO DEMOLITION OR RESTORATION - In the heart of the Eagle did not start the program of demolition of the buildings now irrecoverable. He has not left the restoration of private buildings, the public sector, nor those of artistic and architectural. And they are numerous. In many areas roads have been cleared and the debris piled in the center of a square or a street corner. The Region of Abruzzo has mandated to expand the sites where they can be entrusted with the remains of buildings earthquake, but by the time the operation has not started yet. The first issue of the "red zone" is this: remove the rubble. Fighters fire are working tirelessly to try to protect all the buildings of extraordinary beauty - the churches, cathedrals, historic buildings - from the inevitable. After a bitter first taste of fall and a couple of weeks almost summer, L'Aquila is about to get cold, rain, winter. " THE CITY 'IS DYING " - " Right now the priority - most just - was to give shelter to those who had lost," says Marina Marinucci, Aquila editorial journalist of "Il Centro ". "But in the meantime - he says - the town is dying, has not begun any work of recovery and restoration, and will soon be too late." The center is propped up almost anywhere. Wooden frames to hold the window to enclose a porch large belts, hoses innocent people everywhere, and then bolts, steel pins used to do, other wood to act as a buttress to a ledge that seems to stand by a miracle. The city seems in some areas, such as bombed. is not just a problem of the old town, there are the suburbs, Santa Barbara, Comb, San Giuliano. Yet, since the spotlight on the "red zone" have been extinguished, including the Aquila winds a terrifying thought. The city of L'Aquila, as they have known, lived, loved and lived, no longer exist, it can not be resurrected. The housing problems have been partially resolved, while four thousand people remain in tents and thousands more waiting for a home staying in a hotel on the coast. "But here, Aquila - Marinucci says - there's a whole church, and all the buildings of institutions, from the Prefecture to the City to the Province, are heavily damaged and the rain and bad weather will come soon to finish the job . And then there are even entire buildings from shore. will never live this? .
UNIVERSITY COURSES IS NOT STOPPED - Anna Tellini teaches Russian Literature at the Faculty of Humanities. Teaches, not taught. Even if the power is completely collapsed, such as engineering. "After the earthquake, the lessons we have ended in a tent at the Pole of couples, where there is the faculty of sciences. Then summer's examinations were held outdoors on the lawn. And then from October 19 we took lessons in Bazzano, in an industrial building. The second half but we do it in juvenile prison. At the next academic year do not even want to think. " It is estimated that the damage done by the University of L'Aquila bypass is between 150 and 180 million euro. The decline in subscribers was - predictably - vistosissimo. The off-site no longer know where to stay, many students find it difficult to move forward. "Many of them have panic attacks, it is not easy work. But we remain - says Anna Tellini - not to condemn this city to death. Resist, to keep alive the soul of the city. " The soul of the city. Everyone uses this expression. Collemaggio soul is called, is called Santa Maria Paganica, gutted and roofless - beautiful even in its devastation - which can not be covered and protected because all protection would fly away. His name is Santa Maria degli Angeli, with the dome of Raphael, horribly drawn and beautifully protected. It's called Ardinghelli Palace, Palace of the Nobles, recently renovated, Palazzo Margherita, the Town Hall, Quinzi palace, which the Province, after reconditioned had given the grammar schools. All destroyed. Empty shells, as the rector, or as the Duomo, which appeared in the facade saved, but imploded in and open pit.
CATHEDRAL SQUARE - Around the "red zone" inhabited only by men in uniform, fire trucks, continues. We are in Piazza del Duomo, the marketplace, one where the local farmers brought every morning the good earth produces. Seems to be gone. But above all, now, seems a utopia. Cerasoli Anna is a writer who has just attended a literary festival [...]. While Anna Cerasoli speaks, it starts to rain and she shakes her head. With the hand indicates the rubble from which sprout bushes. "It's been seven months and we are still in these conditions, rain, tempers the rubble, crumbling houses, churches, all rot. It seems impossible to think that the Eagle will become a new town and all this will nothing. " The story of Cerasoli is interrupted by a professor of Russian literature. Anna Tellini, as we walk in the narrow streets of the center says "I lived here." He wants us to only see the hallway, but firefighters who join us say it is not certain, that you can not. The tug of war going on for several minutes, but inside, you can not enter. Everything seems on the verge of collapse at moment.

I've never been to L'Aquila, but one day I want to go.
L'Aquila must not die, because the center of a city is its soul.

THE ENGINEERS OF THE TOWN SQUARE MAGIC

The adventures of Arthur Dent is surreal ... but to a certain point, as you know who has the (mis) fortune to attend assiduously to the Building Commission, Building the OSS, the Planning Office and the Land Registry ...

- But Mr. Dent, and 'by nine months the plans are available to the public, local office in the Road' and Traffic.

- Oh, yes, 'you'! Be ', as soon as I heard it I rushed to see them, yesterday afternoon. It 's not that there be a renewed effort to draw attention to that project, right? There have been very careful to talk to anyone.

- But the plans were clearly visible to the public ...- Visible?! I had to go into the basement to see them!

- but 'that the office of consultation for the public!

- and you should consult with the flashlight?

- Oh yeah ', you see that the lamps were electrocuted!

- But there were only light. Neither was the scale!

- I mean, you have found the plans?

- It '- said Arthur - you'. They were at the bottom of a filing cabinet that was locked in a toilet on the door of which was useless posted the sign 'Beware of the leopard' .

What To Write In The Wedding Weekend Welcome Bags

In the front left side (with respect to the main facade) of the Cathedral of Siena is one of many examples of the most well-known famous magic square: the Sator Arepo.
In practice, an object apparently trivial: a small block of white marble dell'alteza about 20-30 cm engraved with five words, arranged one over the square in shape note, written in small letters and very graceful:

SATOR
AREPO
TENET OPERA

ROTAS
This seems so simple and written in short, a closer examination reveals very curious: first is a palindrome, that is fully readable in every possible direction, horizontal and vertical, right to left or vice versa. Then the translation is very mysterious, and still the subject of discussion of the scholars that have gradually given the many different meanings.
The oldest complete example so far discovered (even with the words placed in reverse, and the sequence cioèsecondo: ROTAS OPERA TENET AREPO SATOR) is engraved on a column in the Gymnasium of Pompeii, and is therefore the oldest of 79 AD, when the city was completely buried by Vesuvius.
Upon discovery, archaeologists thought of a simple word game, a puzzle without too much curiosity secret meanings. And yet ... looking a bit 'better, you immediately notice the two "tenet" in the shape of a cross, which act as "guide" for future discoveries. Anagram In fact, the square and placing the letters in the shape of the cross you get a good result, this: A


P
A

T E R


A PATERNOSTER O O S


T E R


O
"Pater Noster, Our Father in Latin, enclosed between two sets of" A "and" O ", read as the Latin transcription of alpha and omega Greek Apocalypse that symbolize the beginning and the end the birth and death. God, therefore, the "our father" would be a bridge between the beginning and end of everything.
a Christian message, then. A hidden message, because in the early centuries Roman Empire, Christians were often persecuted. A message that even when Christianity became the state religion, never lost its charm: the square was in fact considered so perfect as to become almost divine, and therefore worthy of being written or embedded on the walls and floors of churches and chapels . But he was also invested with a meaning "magic" in the fullest sense of the word, the point of being regarded as a talisman, as we learn by reading treatises and medical prescriptions: written on parchment or engraved medallions and brought him up, or a crust of and bread eaten was a remedy against the evil eye, rabies or bitten by dogs with rabies, while read or uttered became a magic formula, an exorcism or a prayer, such as we read in a manuscript from a monastery where it appears the words "Tetragramatum. Rotas Sator opera tenet arepo Alleluia. "
And who knows maybe even the square of Siena was placed at that point just as a reminder, a sort of exorcism on stone "for the passer-by, reading the inscription, would be protected. The writing, however, was probably engraved before being put in its current layout, and perhaps comes from an older building and was reused. Looking at the square well, in fact, we note that it is not recorded in the middle of the block, but very close to the upper edge, to the point that "or" Sator is slightly cut. Its location in the wall, however, certainly is not random because it is about two meters in height, clearly visible and not upside down.

Sometimes, however, words were put into a square shape, but simply written in sequence or, in a curious variant engraved in the plaster of an abbey in Sermoneta (LT) with the letters entered into a spiral .

ALESSANDRA MARINO .- The new Superintendent of Bologna

This article was adapted from The Republic of May 19.

" BOLOGNA - Alessandra Marino is the new superintendent

BRUNELLA TORRESIN - Tuesday, May 19, 2009, THE REPUBLIC - Bologna

Alessandra Marino's appointment is the new superintendent of Architectural Heritage and Landscape in Bologna (Modena and Reggio Emilia): young architect, Roman of birth, Florentine by adoption, was an official of the Regional Direction of Cultural Heritage and landscape of Tuscany until the contest organized by the Ministry for executives, topped with excellent results, has opened the way to Bologna. Sabina Ferrari is to replace the role the former superintendent has held since 2002, sharing the premises between Verona and Bologna, and finding himself at the center of many controversy: the authorizations granted to change the ex Stock Exchange for the use of the endless controversy over private terrace, from skirmishes with Mayor Cofferati on regulations governing use of Piazza Maggiore, the complaints against the construction of the Civis. Alessandra Marino has long been a close collaborator of the Regional Director for the Cultural Heritage of Tuscany Mario Lolli Ghetti, according to which 'good choice for Bologna, the Ministry could not do. " Shy and reserved, so describe it, an expert on restoration, Marino is a professor of architectural restoration of the Laboratory of the Faculty of Architecture of Ferrara. It has already settled in the Palazzo Dall'Armi Marescalchi.

For Alessandra Marino my best wishes now Bologna is in excellent hands. I was lucky to have her as a speaker of a thesis and is truly an extraordinary person who taught me a lot.
Good luck prof.!

The fake windows are my true passion
:-) I am presenting this, the first of many, comes from Siena, is on the side wall of a building on Via Dupre and very rare because it has a crude (and curious) error of perspective.
The window type is rare, is a window to 4 door, Siena there are only a dozen, and this is by far the best preserved, probably dates from the eighteenth century . Look at the open door
: the frame of the window is doubled, so that the door-rather curiously, seems to be open or closed simultaneously. The sealing of glass is straight and not looking ahead, surely those who painted this trompe l'oeil painter-a simple-probably did not know.

Beppe Severgnini face of Michelangelo

A dear friend of mine, originally from Fiesole, I did see the profile of an important man with a nose and thick curly hair, roughly carved on a stone of the facade of the Palazzo Vecchio in Florence on the left side at eye level.
Apparently, my friend said that during a meeting of people of Florence (or a public ceremony), Michelangelo, who was holding one of its instruments, has deceived the boredom by drawing the profile.

2 - Have you seen the walls?

Severgnini Here's another quote, again taken from The head of the Italians.

Have you seen the walls? Brick. Everywhere. Bricks in the eye. Brick similar in size and color. Brick on brick churches and the houses, brick on brick and restaurants on the inputs. But the Tuscan was a symphony of plaster, made with local materials, so as to bring the colors of the walls? Why, then, this skinning? I do not know, but I have a suspicion you like Italy [Severgnini is aimed at foreign-ed]-colored brick. And 'the reproduction of your winter dreams. We Italians have to offer it? Maybe not, but we do.
Our willingness to please is producing pretty disasters. Pienza and Montepulciano, and Cortona Casale Marittimo, Casole d'Elsa and San Gimignano: the most beautiful places were shelled with diligence. In trying to keep up Umbria (Spoleto, Città della Pieve, Assisi, even). The result is a strange perfection, a rustic / country is not where the modern neo-Tudor in Great Britain (there logs, bricks here). But the English, at least, is a revival. Ours is a fake.
The practice of skinning is not new. It dates from the nineteenth century and the myth of historicism. All monuments, until then, had plastered and painted it: even the stones and marbles were painted. Romanesque architecture were also covered with a thin plaster and then painted in imitation of brick. The ancients could not stand it that attracts us. The differences in color and finish materials in sight.
Why then remove the protective plaster walls? It 's like if we went around in a bathing suit in winter. When you see the usual brick arch that floats like a cork soprauna plastered facade, know that it is past the Skinner Gentile. When you enter in the farm with bricks yellow (it looks like housing in Watford: the English will feel at home), hailed the Apprentice Skinner. When v'imbattete in Pieve Desnuda, think: the architect who has tanned well acts as the Italian chef in New York puts it in the menu Fettuccine Alfredo. In Italy I am not asking anyone. But the Americans claim, and woe be to not provide them.
Explanations of the phenomenon? Psychological reasons (curiosity: Let's see what's below), psychoanalysis (the plaster as the dress of a loved one), economic (galling is it to work, and work means money). But I insist too often we choose to adapt the image of Italy fantasies of the guests. We offer a huge mental Tuscany, which begins and ends at the Tarvisio Trapani. We are now the world's largest producers of sensations. Maybe we should patent it and sell them: we could call in the sixth, the trade balance.

Beppe Severgnini 1 - The house color highlighter

Beppe Severgnini is not an architect, but wrote brilliant pages in my arms on the obscenity that you see around. This piece is adapted from his book The head of the Italians.

A ghost wanders about in Italy: a semi-colored marker. Yellow acid, orange reflector , green surgical, chemical blue, blue toothpaste , carmine psychedelic : the colors are synthetic, for some time, stain the landscape. One turns the corner, stands before a wall beam and thinks the owner has the wrong color! Well, yes and no. The color was chosen and paid: these special colors, made of titanium or nickel, costing three times the normal colors. But the decision was made on a sample of 4 x 4 cm, which led the lady to squeal "Cute." But the blue tooth, covering the entire facade becomes disturbing, psychedelic carmine - pop version of the ancient 'houses - causing failure, the orange reflector is only suitable to the visions of a Minister of Ukraine or the hallucinations of a Dutch footballer. But it is done: the landlord must accept the reality. Every night, coming back, he sees his real estate marker that stands down the street. The trauma, the winter is somewhat attenuated: the early darkness covered the error color (darkness is always merciful to urban planning). But now, when the light summer Fell pitiless walls, is hard. The swallows will choose other shelters, the postman will be presented with the sunglasses, but the owner must return to his house subversive, and atone for his pain every day. [our bold]

Saverio Muratori

" I had to make very considerable effort to get rid of the clichés acquired as a child of modern juvenile wishful thinking, I have used all the experience from twenty to forty 'year to identify issues from contemporary culture, from forty years later, with the study of the urban fabric of Venice and Rome, I came to understand the laws of typical urban forms and the cyclical nature of world cities, as that of man, I spent ten years working on the question of territory, and then I faced the problem of self, that is the adventure of civilization [Saverio Muratori]

I Muratorian . Not so much because I love its architecture often not appreciating that fact, but because of the Mason- Thought.
Although I base a lot of my ideas about architecture and my love for minor building on the studies Caniggia and Maffei, I know that without him there would be those studies.

The catalog of horrors

This is my hit parade. No, the music has nothing to do. It
My personal catalog of horrors , that is all that I never wanted to see and, unfortunately, I have seen (and forgotten).

5th place
post-modern villa with the main facade consists of pseudo greek pediment with a lot of circular portholes in the middle (it was probably the bathroom window) and copper roofing. Unfortunately this is a very popular genre in our suburbs.

4th place
The "home with chicken pox" in the words of my professor of restoration, or those "lovely & graceful" windows cut into the plaster of the humble dwellings of the old town (or noble residences) to expose the exhaust arches, lintels, blocks of stone to reinforce the corners and so on: it is useless to explain how to make a window in the plaster of a building 70 to showcase the concrete pillar.

3 ° PLACE
a must in the pseudo-rustic rustic pizza, especially when placed in the industrial area of \u200b\u200bthe city in very modern buildings: the fake floor / ceiling of wood (if all goes well with wooden beams, if it goes wrong beams with plastic). In one case, the "beams" were fixed to the wall is very evident with anchors, leaving at least two fingers of space between the head and the wall pseudotrave. When friends tell me: did you see that there is beautiful wooden ceiling eh?, usually I go across the pizza.

2ND PLACE
chains (the ones that sell hardware store in the metro, just for instance, and which are usually used to block the driveways and moor vessels) in place of gutters. The chain in question down to a sort of shelter (?) Projecting in the width of about one meter. The house was a second home in the sea in that of Grosseto, in style rather rationalist style Waterfall House economic version. Unfortunately I am not able to see the chain-gutters at work because it was not raining, but the existential question remains: will we live the descendant of an Executioner of the Bastille, which has recycled tools of his ancestors, or the scrap dealer's cousin gave a gift?

1st place
postmodern building with a facade constructed from glass and smoked over each "window" (ie a sheet of glass and two not, the board) a kind of small drum pseudodorico unidentified material. I shudder at the mere memory.

short, if our houses could talk, as he put an advertisement a few years ago ...

Hello everyone: My name is Elena and I am an architect.
But do not think the "real" creative architect who dresses in black, he spends his nights ago to draw and render with the Rhinoceros.
No, my love is restored, the old walls, the plaster wall a little faded and peeling.
I love the minor architecture, the genius of the Gothic cathedrals, houses stacked one on top of Siena and Assisi, the narrow stone-paved streets. I love the trompe l'oil
doors and windows, fake medieval tapestries, the ceilings with wooden beams, the painted facades, wrought-iron grates.
I do not like postmodernism, the terraced houses On the outskirts, houses the violent unlikely colors.
Of all this I want to talk, so I created my blog: Why this immense wealth, of which the walls of every city shall keep a record, to look and look, fade and are lost every year that passes, and is lost forever .
