Description:
Within the Project, students of architecture from different European countries will meet and work together in Florence, Italy, the cradle of the Renaissance. The aim consists in studying Renaissance architecture in its authentic place. The Project goes on for four years and covers the period from 1400 to 1600. Each year is devoted to half a century of the Italian Renaissance, and is therefore divided in four parts: A (1400-1450), B (1450-1500), C (1500-1550), D (1550-1600). In this year 2009 will run the period D (1550-1600). The project starts with national presentation of each country, which will introduce the studying period in their country. It will be described the national architecture in th period 1550-1600 and influences of the Florentine architecture in the 19th Century. The name, Touches of the Renaissance, is meant both literally and metaphorically: the students will draw and measure architectural details related to the respective period of time, and thus, through ”touching”, will be able to perfectly understand the material, the scale, the space, and also the genius loci. In addition, in mutual work they will make friends and confront their experience with that of their colleagues from other schools. <BR><BR><B>Important deadlines</B> <BR>Registration and hotel booking must be made within September 17th 2009, by filling up the <A href="http://www.fondazione-delbianco.org/seminari/registration/form.asp?idw=166">Registration Form</A>.
