 Individual Project

This proposal is an intervention in Teatro Verde, an open amphitheater built in 1954 and located in the historical site of San Giorgio Maggiore, in Venice - Italy.
The Cini Foundation, which owns the site, was created in 1951 by Vittorio Cini in homage to his deceased son, Giorgio Cini. The Foundation has an embedded archival identity, once since its creation, they are committed to archiving and promoting art history in Venice. Therefore, democratizing the archives by embedding them into the new intervention is a way to highlight the legacy and mission of the foundation.
The Design creates an interplay of present and past, performance and spectacle that are intended to enhance the experience of the Teatro Verde. By dressing and undressing parts of the site, the new spaces create suggestive paths that one can take, and in each procession, one will organically learn about the history of theater and reflect on what is happening in the present. Therefore unarchiving the past is the primary means to historicize the present.
