OtherMemory, archive and document are increasingly relevant and prevalent concepts in modern societies. Through re-emergences, re-enactments and re-configurations, memory is pervading daily life and blurring coordinates of time and space to an unprecedented extent. How do Arts and Architecture deal with this? And what is their role in this complex and paradoxical process that sometimes seems to relate the present more to the past than to the future?…
This international conference aims to discuss the cultural uses related to the problematics of memory, archive and document, privileging architecture and artistic practices, and favoring different geographical and methodological approaches.
