2020年, 罗马将作为意大利重新统一后的新首都庆祝建都150周年。“艾斯奎林传说罗马地图册2.0”项目将会借这次机会发起。该项目将使用两个风格迥异但目的相同的图形/交流产品来描述和展示艾斯奎林地区的丰富经历。事实上, 该地区始建于1870年并开始转变为城市, 成为意大利的新首都之初, 这里整个地区的居民只有20 万多一点。这是一个令人震惊的城市复兴项目, 代表性建筑物、政府办公楼和白领的办公场所拔地而起, 宽阔的街道和广场涌现出来。
Sapienza展览大厅的这一部分着重展示游客和当地居民都最为熟悉的罗马市中心部分。这块领土上保留着“永恒之城”三千年来的重要历史记忆和现代意大利最近的历史。罗马是一个多面的城市, 她知道如何在历史中调整, 以适应成长和变迁, 再适应人们的移居和全球化, 各式各样的建筑空间和居住在这里的人们标志着罗马: 不仅是一个 城市, 而是一个多重城市。
这种情况及其复杂, 不是从一个视角便能描述得尽的。这也是为何该项目要建立一个展示系统来探索整个艾斯奎林广场, 探索包括从前也包括现在, 有久远的历史也有近代历史, 探索这里的生活和众多文化, 这里的本 地化和全球化, 这里所包容的和排斥的, 这里的建筑风格和空间不确定性。这次展示的组织形式像一个地图集, 因为地图集是可以用于分解现实、重配现实, 以记忆碎片来平行传达的分析/配置工具。
因此, “艾斯奎林传说罗马地图册2.0”是一 个“思考工具”, 它旨在通过提供一系列艾斯奎林地区可能的景象重新构建一个可想象, 但有形的、同时又承载着记忆和未来的城市面貌。今天, 要欣赏一个城市及其文化和遗产,仍必须找到能代表这个城市的相关形式, 来展示其文化身份和独特的经历。因此, 该展览提供了发现和再次发现这个城市及其中意义的方法和途径。
In 2020, Rome will celebrate its 150th anniversary as the new capital of the (then) just reunited Italy. This occasion has given rise to the project The Esquilino Tales. City Atlases of Rome 2.0 to describe and represent the complexity of the Esquilino district via two graphical/communicational products that are very di erent but united by their shared goal. It was here, in fact, that building began in 1870 on an entire neighbourhood to adapt the city, which then had little more than 200,000 residents, to its new role as a capital. This was an impressive urban renewal project, with the construction of representative buildings, housing for government o cials and white-collar workers in the new administration, and broad avenues and squares.
This part of the Sapienza exhibition hall focuses on a neighbourhood which, while at the centre of Rome, is mostly unknown, not only by tourists, but also by the inhabitants of Rome. It is a sort of enclave that houses important historical remains from the three millennia history of the ‘Eternal City’ and the more recent history of modern Italy. Rome is a multi- layered city that has known how to recon figure itself throughout history to adapt to growth and physical transformation and then migration and globalization, marked by a variety of built spaces and the people living there: a multitude of cities rather than just one city.
This situation is too complex to be described from a single point of view, and this is why the project proposes a system of representations to begin to explore the Esquilino quarter, mixing past and present, monumental memories and recent history, life in Rome and its many cultures, local and global, inclusion and exclusion, architectural style and spatial indeterminacy. The representations are organized like an atlas, because atlases are an analytical/cognitive tool used to deconstruct reality, recon figure it, and communicate it as the juxtaposition of fragments of memory.
The Esquilino Tales. City Atlases of Rome 2.0 is therefore a ‘thinking tool’ that aims to reconstruct the topography of an imaginable but tangible city that holds memory and future together by o ering a set of possible views of the Esquilino district. To appreciate a city and its culture and heritage today, it is still necessary to find pertinent forms that can represent the city, showing both its cultural identity and individual experience. Hence, the exhibition proposes paths and itineraries of meaning in the discovery and rediscovery of our city.
