ERASMUS EFFECT
I have some doubts about the idea of “STAR MIGRANT” and some old names but... the expo could be interesting
From the role of Giacomo Quarenghi in St Petersburg to the work of Lina Bo Bardi in Brazil and through to Pietro Belluschi in the United States and Romaldo Giugola – still active in Australia – or even Renzo Piano, the migratroy paths followed by some of our leading talents are well known and well established within the international historiography of architecture.
The exhibition Erasmus Effect investigates the progressive acceleration that the phenomenon of “migrant” Italian architecture has undergone in recent decades. From the work of the established international companies to the projects and built works of the young Italian studios, shedding light on both the “widespread quality” of their work and the dense network of collaborations and trans-national ateliers born in the wake of the “#Erasmus_generation”.
And lastly, the “star” migrants, not just architects, but voices, faces and stories capable of recounting a very extensive phenomenon and to lend energy and substance to the commitment of those striving to ensure that this precious Italian talent may return home.
I have some doubts about the concept of “Excellent migrant” but... the expo could be interesting
