Programme

The course is divided into three sections.
1) History of the archaeological restoration culture, particularly focused on Rome (Roman Forum, Palatine Hill, Imperial Fora). The lectures are dedicated to the history of change and re-use that have led to the loss of the original architectural identity until its intentional “re-creation”, from the second half of the Eighteenth Century. This new culture and its different outcomes during the last two centuries will be analyzed: excavations, restorations, reconstructions, anastylosis and enhancement programs.
2) Lectures on the history of Garbatella neighborhood.
3) Small group exercises (main topic: Garbatella neighborhood).

Type of delivery of the course

The course, structured in a "Garbatella 20/20" Laboratory, will be divided into: - seminar activities with lessons and guided tours; - research activities that students will have to carry out in groups (study, critical elaborations and analysis of urban and architectural themes; project proposals and / or guidelines for the restoration, restoration and re-functionalization of architectural consistencies and of the urban system, with specific attention to the relationship between public spaces and private spaces); - preparatory activities for the elaboration of a temporal map of the urban memory, curated by Pietro Ruffo, to be presented at the Biennale of Public Spaces (Rome, former Mattatoio, May 30 - June 1, 2019). The studies carried out by the students will flow into the "Quaderni di Garbatella 20/20" drawn up by the working groups according to the layout provided by the course. Broad outline of the work to be carried out includes: introductory note of the project (max 5,000 characters) and biographical profile of the designer (max 2,500 characters) with the chronology of the main works; archive research and systematization of documentary material; photographic and metric survey; analysis of the state of conservation; critical redesign of the project and the current state with normalized graphic code (typological plans, plan of the public space, sections, elevations, etc.); abacus of architectural elements; bibliography, archival sources and possible archival registers.

Attendance

Attendance is mandatory at 75% of the hours (see the didactic regulation)

Type of evaluation

The evaluation of the students will be on the work done during the Garbatella 20/20 Laboratory, in particular, it will be required to illustrate a "Notebook", in A4 format, which collects the students' papers on one of the historic lots in the neighborhood (historical summary on the figure of designers, architectural and urban analysis, study of greenery, interviews with inhabitants, interpretative schemes of typological and urban characters). Students will have to demonstrate that they have understood the historical events of the Garbatella district, its compositional process and the various problems related to its state of preservation.
