Vittorio Salmoni, INU – URBIT
Cultural places, particularly in the post-Covid era, represent one of the crucial factors of a city’s economy, laboratories of ideas, centers of attraction, comparison, dissemination, socialization. The most important Italian cities have rethought and regenerated entire parts around a Museum, a seat of a Cultural Foundation.
The villages of the inland areas focus on places of culture and digital technologies to structure their future. Today the urban and territorial role of cultural spaces is expanding, diversifying to the point of taking on completely unexpected features: it happens that heterogeneous functions are concentrated in them that give rise to multidisciplinary ensembles capable of intercepting different cultural, educational, artistic experiential needs at the same time.
The cases proposed by the speakers, chosen across the board also at the international level, will account for the experiences of elaboration and reorganization of cultural spaces already underway, also in light of the structural transformations imposed by the measures to counter the pandemic, which characterize this new interesting phase. But we do not want to limit ourselves to a review of cases: the aim is to offer administrations, local communities and cultural operators material to develop new urban models and policies.
