“L’arte dei muri a secco”, confronti tra esperienze per la conservazione del patrimonio culturale dei paesaggi rurali
2023
The European rural landscape has been designed for centuries by the art of the construction of dry stone walls and by the arrangement of terraced bands, becoming a cultural expression of identity common also to rural contexts geographically distant from each other. In 2018, eight European countries obtained the transnational recognition of the “Art of dry stone walls” in the UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage List. The contribution questions, on the basis of some case studies, how UNESCO recognition can concretely favor the start of that necessary support for studies and conservation of the knowledge preserved in the experience of the workers, who often lack professional recognition and re…
TANGIBLE AND INTANGIBLE HERITAGE IN THE MEDITERRANEAN SUSTAINABLE CITY
2013
This contribution is about the enhancement of the tangible and intangible cultural heritage and acknowledgement of environmental sustainability principles. It deals with the relationship between new ways of conceiving urban environments and new strategies for urban regeneration in northern and southern Mediterranean cities. Our main research hypothesis will show how the cultural heritage is now the force for change in Mediterranean cities, and involves stakeholders, craftsmen, local inhabitants and consumers. The case studies of Tunis and Marseille will help to address the issue of the enhancement of historic city centres and the redevelopment of abandoned industrial areas. In Tunis we will…
Il Patrimonio della città sostenibile nel Mediterraneo. Progetti sostenibili per il centro storico di Tunisi
2013
Questo contributo si concentra sull’analisi di nuove strategie di rigenerazione urbana che hanno come obiettivo primario la valorizzazione del Patrimonio della città sostenibile nel Mediterraneo. La nostra ipotesi vuole dimostrare che il Patrimonio è diventato il vettore mobilizzatore del cambiamento delle città mediterranee, coinvolgendo mestieri, abitanti e fruitori. Verranno esaminati due progetti realizzati nella città di Tunisi dall’Association de Sauvegarde de la Médina (ASM): l’intervento di valorizzazione di un percorso urbano che collega gli spazi pubblici e il patrimonio architettonico della Medina (2008), dalla Mosquée Zitouna alla Zaouina di Sidi Ibrahim Riahi; il piano di rivit…
Costruzione della Sicilian Experience. Il caso di Anna Tasca Lanza Cooking School
2020
La Sicilia è storicamente oggetto di narrative di stampo marcatamente edonistico, anche di recente casi rispecchiate e alimentate da casi editoriali di grande successo. Con l’imporsi di nuovi trend turistici improntati alla scoperta di specialità gastronomiche e vinicole locali, il settore turistico dell'isola gode di un ciclo particolarmente positivo. Le strutture di produzione e distribuzione agroalimentare e le realtà ricettive del territorio si stanno evolvendo per assecondare questo nuovo tipo di domanda, con effetti prevedibili di patrimonializzazione e ricostruzione semiotica della cultura alimentare tipica. Tra le realtà più in vista, nel settore, c’è la scuola di cucina Anna Tasca …
Wandering Shepherds:
2022
In Sicily transhumance is still today - even if resized - a practice in which copious shepherds have to turn to, while in Sardinia pastoral mobility disappeared in the 1970s of the last century – however short-range movements remain still active. After outlining a brief historical framework of transhumance in the two islands, the speech would like to reflect on how the traits of history and identity of this practice are starting to change into a new cultural and economic resource, aimed at the safeguard and the valorization of an important material and immaterial heritage and at the promotion of experiential and sustainable forms of tourism.
Bandi vivi
2014
The processes of institutionalization and objectification of post-agricultural can be made clearer by deconstructing and making the procedures triggered by the application of rules imposed by the transnational bureaucratic machine of the European Union problematic and conflicting. The construction of competitive narratives between local and global, which according to the dominant rhetoric would produce unequivocal locality, defined in its relational and contextual aspects, are the basis of the institutionalized development aid system which, just like in colonialism, becomes a field of cultural protest and construction of the neighborhood ethnorami.
