  Actors and Vehicles of Architectural Criticism

  Architectural Criticism 20th and 21st Centuries, a Cartography

  This second international workshop takes into consideration the actors and the vehicles of criticism: with these terms it refers to both the agents of criticism (critics, architects, historians, publishers, photographers, institutions, etc.) and the media through which criticism is disseminated (press, photography, exhibitions, etc.). The workshop aims to expand the knowledge about the specific functions of these actors and their networks and to outline their mutual relationships. The four sessions investigate the links between the actors, the media of criticism, and the historical contexts within which they materialize, as well as the cultural, intellectual, and institutional milieus from which they originate.

  Actors and Vehicles of Architectural Criticism

  “Mapping Architectural Criticism” Second International Workshop Bologna

  This call for papers is for the second of three international workshops planned by the Mapping.Crit.Arch Project to foster scholarship on the history of architectural criticism and facilitate exchanges between scholars active in this field of research. Conceived as milestones of the research project, these workshops intend to go beyond somewhat widespread interpretations that invoke either the specificity of architectural criticism or its partial overlapping with other forms of writing. The workshops also want to challenge simplistic views that suggest the crisis of architectural criticism if not its entire demise. The second workshop will focus on the actors and “vehicles” of architectural criticism.

  Il modello architettonico

  Funzione ed evoluzione di uno strumento di concezione e di realizzazione

  Nonostante le mostre dei più rappresentativi modelli architettonici svolte nell’ultimo decennio del Novecento a Palazzo Grassi (1994) e nella Palazzina di Stupinigi (1999) ancora oggi questo soggetto non è pienamente esplorato dalla storia dell’arte. Le loro funzioni vanno dallo strumento durante la progettazione, alla simulazione tridimensionale destinata a convincere un committente fino a riferimenti normativi per le maestranze impiegate nel cantiere. Il seminario si propone di confrontare l’impiego di modelli durante diversi periodi, in diversi paesi europei e di aprire un dibattito su future ricerche che riguardano un censimento delle testimonianze disperse, delle norme per il loro restauro e la creazione di un museo virtuale.
