Border Memories: Re-enacting Difficult Heritage by Elisa Mansutti (POLIMI April 2014)

The project aims to re-discover the past of the transnational territory called Venezia Giulia, shared by Italy, Slovenia and Croatia, where the ethnic fights along the years have left numerous traces fixed in the soil and geography of the place. Traces that need to be somehow re-activated since the memory of all dark periods have been, sometimes consciously, sometime involutarily, removed and never re-elaborated.

Ritorno all’AgriCultura: Ripristino di una masseria abbandonata negli Iblei, Carla Monaco (POLMI APR2014)

Nel corso dell’ultimo secolo, e particolarmente da cinquant’anni a questa parte, si è assistito ad un cambiamento sostanziale del panorama europeo: terreni un tempo coltivati o adibiti al pascolo, sono ora teatro di vegetazione arbustiva o arborea.

Il mio lavoro si prefigge di dimostrare come sia possibile e proficuo un piano di ripristino volto al recupero di queste aree dal punto di vista agricolo, architettonico ed antropologico, con particolare attenzione alle eredità culinarie.
