VITE im\POSSIBILI: workshop

April 30th, 2011

Scene da un abbandono

Alianello (MT): Sabato 19 e domenica 20 marzo 2011

pic by Raniero Carloni album 2010 Aliano su Picasaweb

L’azione di allestimento-istantaneo del workshop si propone di realizzare un’esperienza di ri\conoscimento da parte degli studenti del corso del valore di alcune semplici unità di case contadine del borgo abbandonato di Alianello (MT) , stimolando gli stessi studenti ad immaginarne usi e sensi da mettere in scena partendo dai resti, dagli scarti che il caso ed il tempo hanno determinato: entrare in un luogo che, dopo tanta vita (storie di quotidiana fatica e banalità, sentimenti e violenze, nascite e morti, riso e pianti), ha conosciuto l’abbandono in un istante, senza che nessuno sia passato a mettere ordine.

Un luogo vero in quanto non musealizzato, dunque pieno di tracce.

Grete Prytz and Planetveien 12

April 22nd, 2011

Grete Prytz in her house in Planetveien 12, Oslo (pic by Nina Ruud)

Here is a Planetveien 12 gallery even you miss here the presence of life, for a different sequence look here.

Grete died the 25th of September 2010 at the age of 93: always working with the same energy and lively creativity! I met her the first time in 1994 and I was shocked by her beauty and cleverness: I was with Christian Norberg-Schulz who introduced me to one of the most outstanding woman I have ever met. From that visit, I have always tried to pass by her in the house she was leaving since the 1955: Planetveien 12! The house was designed by her husband Arne Korsmo (a master of  Norwegian second generation of Modern architects) between 1952 and 1955, just before he left for Trondheim, for him and her wife Grete. She spent all her life there, respecting the initial utopia of the house programme: a place for life & work. This has been Planetveien 12 until she left for ever!
