It keeps on getting bigger, this network of individuals in the Piemonte Region with whom DC is launching various designs of territory-opening, ones that are cultural and operational, in stark contrast with the short-sighted isolating vision that can best be described as all-spaces-in-their-own-place.
The Dolomites in Turin, this interests us, and Mollino in Borca, and maybe Gellner at the Valentino Castle, this is what we want to do.
The east in the west, and the west in the east, this is what needs to be done.
The meeting of networks, this, and only this, is unavoidable, if one wants to speak of Culture (and not of finite, still gardens).
The open Space that separates the Dolomites from the Western Alps is much more important of the Dolomites or Western Alps themselves: it doesn’t have to be filled, it must instead be corssed.
This Space is none other than the Landscape.
And Landscape is Movement.
The Polytechnic University of Turin, the Merz Foundation, the landscape innovators (and not just of the one surrounding the Alps) of Leap Factory, The National Mountain Museum, these are just some of those with whom we wish to collaborate, to extend a planning net on the territory, to move and haul it, to avoid its constriction and containment into static enclosures.
