Raccolta di articoli in onore di Marcella Frangipane riguardo il sito archeologico Arslantepe, in Antaolia orientale
La committenza ha da sempre condizionato e indirizzato l’architettura sia nella sua fase progettuale e di cantiere sia nella sua conservazione, tenuto conto delle vicende storiche coeve, della situazione economica al contorno e della cultura architettonica del momento. Un ordine religioso è tra i committenti più esigenti perché, vivendo secondo precisi dogmi, richiede un’architettura che identifichi le proprie necessità. I due tomi raccolgono contributi che affrontano le modalità in cui gli ordini e le congregazioni religiose, tra Medioevo ed Età Moderna, hanno rappresentato sé stessi tramite l’arte e l’architettura. Gli atti sono frutto del convegno, svolto a maggio 2021, organizzato in seno alle molteplici attività complementari che il Dottorato di Storia, Disegno e Restauro dell’Architettura di Sapienza Università di Roma offre per la formazione accademica integrando i tre distinti, ma affini, settori disciplinari.
Le prospettive architettoniche sono un ponte che collega l’arte alla scienza, e la scienza all’arte; e questo ponte l’ha costruito la Storia. Sono un ponte perché nella realizzazione di queste rappresentazioni di architettura che ‘sfondano’ la compagine muraria non si possono raggiungere effetti illusionistici di sì grande potenza senza una consapevolezza delle leggi della proiezione centrale e senza una conoscenza quantomeno empirica dei complessi meccanismi della percezione visiva. Questo ponte l’ha costruito la Storia, pietra dopo pietra, dalle origini delle prime rappresentazioni prospettiche intuitive pervenuteci dall’epoca romana fino ad oggi, attraversando ere storiche...
This book stems from the seminal work of Robert Venturi and aims at re-projecting it in the current cultural debate by extending it to the scale of landscape and placing it in connection with representative issues. It brings out the transdisciplinary synthesis of a necessarily interdisciplinary approach to the theme, aimed at creating new models which are able to represent the complexity of a contradictory reality and to redefine the centrality of human dimension. As such, the volume gathers multiple experiences developed in different geographical areas, which come into connection with the role of representation. Composed of 43 chapters written by 81 authors from around the world, with an introduction by Jim Venturi and Cezar Nicolescu, the volume is divided into two parts, the first one more theoretical and the other one which showcases real-world applications, although there is never a total split between criticism and operational experimentation of research.
This is the third edition of the well-known guide to close-range photogrammetry. It provides a thorough presentation of the methods, mathematics, systems and applications which comprise the subject of close-range photogrammetry, which uses accurate imaging techniques to analyse the three-dimensional shape of a wide range of manufactured and natural objects.
This book gathers peer-reviewed papers presented at the 1st International and Interdisciplinary Conference on Digital Environments for Education, Arts and Heritage (EARTH2018), held in Brixen, Italy in July 2018. The papers focus on interdisciplinary and multi-disciplinary research concerning cutting-edge cultural heritage informatics and engineering; the use of technology for the representation, preservation and communication of cultural heritage knowledge; as well as heritage education in digital environments; innovative experiments in the field of digital representation; and methodological reflections on the use of IT tools in various educational contexts. The scope of the papers ranges f...
At a time dominated by the disappearance of Future, as claimed by the French anthropologist Marc Augé, Utopia and Religion seem to be two different ways of giving back an inner horizon to mankind. Therefore this book, on the one hand, considers the importance of utopia as a tool and how it offers an economic and social resource to improve cities’ wealth, future and livability. On the other, it explores the impact of religious and cultural ideals on cities that have recently emerged in this context. Based on numerous observations, the book examines the intellectual legacy of utopian theory and practices across various academic disciplines. It also presents discussions, theories, and case studies addressing a range of issues and topics related to utopia.
