GREGORI CIVERA A wise use of cultural reference: looking at Struth’s photographs, the viewer sees at once Las Meninas and a group of students, creating a complex image that is as much about one as it is about the other. There’s the imposing formality of the museum and the informal attitude of the visitors.

Atelier Axo Scarpa’s restoration of Castelvecchio reveals history through precise contemporary interventions. By clearly separating new elements from the medieval structure, the project makes transformation legible and turns restoration into an architectural act.
