House of Memory
The House of Memory is an archive, an exhibition and conference space in Milan. It is the seat of five cultural associations whose aim is to preserve the memory of the conquest of freedom and democracy in Italy: the National Association of Former Deportees (ANED), the National Association of Italian Partisans (ANPI), the National Association of Terrorism's Victims (AIVITER), the Association Piazza Fontana 12 December 1969 and the National Institute of Studies on the Italian Resistance Movement (INSMLI).
This lecture is part of the School Lecture Series
COMMUNITY VOL.1
Seven exemplary projects and case studies
Community is an ambivalent concept. It involves both gathering through shared customs and exclusion. Some claim that inclusive communities do not exist. Recent history shows people more often unite through exclusion than inclusion. However, communities are not sealed. Philosopher Roberto Esposito explains that community 'is not a property or territory to defend but a void, a debt, and a gift to others, reminding us of our otherness.
This lecture series explores the topic of community through architecture. How does architecture explore, define, or enable communities? Can architects collaborate directly with communities, bypassing institutional entities? How can design convey a collective experience? Seven emerging and established architectural figures respond to these questions through their work, which spans film, exhibitions, and communitarian buildings.
