Every human being is born immersed in a sea of perceptions. Consciousness is the first shore we touch: a fragile landing place that allows us to say "I" to the world. But consciousness is not a fixed point: it is a movement, a flow that renews itself every moment. It is the ability to recognize that we are alive and that...

KEEP THIS IN MIND
It's inevitable; time is a merciless judge. It will end badly for all those directly involved in these horrific crimes. Gaza will be history and memory. As it should be! Time does not forget, and history is an impartial guardian of past actions. What today appears as an endless tragedy will tomorrow be engraved in the collective memory, as a warning and testimony. Gaza will not only be a place of pain; it will become a symbol, a lesson for those who listen and learn. Those who have contributed to perpetuating injustice, those who have chosen silence or indifference, will not escape the judgment of time. This is not about revenge, but about an inevitable surrender to the truth, which always emerges in the end, even when buried under the weight of lies. Gaza will be history, it will be memory, it will be resistance. And like every place that has known sacrifice, it will become a beacon for those who fight for justice and human dignity. Because what is right, in the end, always finds a way to be remembered. A*G

"Artificial intelligence is not humanity's enemy, nor its replacement. It is a mirror that shows us who we are and who we could become. It will not do worse than us, it will not do better than us: it will do differently. And in this difference, if we know how to inhabit it, we will find a new form of humanity."
Not all artists seek to arrest the flow of time : some chase it like a wild animal, others pass through it like a raging river. Thomas Dhellemmes belongs to this second lineage: his photography is not an act of fixation, but of movement. He doesn't freeze the moment, he sends it fleeing. He doesn't preserve it, he...
There are artists who don't just photograph the world, they reinvent it.
Arno Rafael Minkkinen , a Finnish-American born in Helsinki in 1945 and raised in the United States , belongs to this rare category. His work, developed over five decades , is a radical and poetic exploration that intertwines body and nature, autobiography and myth,...
Charles Baudelaire , in his famous sonnet "Correspondences ," offers us a vision that is not only poetic, but prophetic. Nature, he says, is a temple: a sacred place where every element—scents, colors, sounds—is intertwined in a secret language, a song that speaks to man and invites him to recognize his belonging to a higher order...
Carlo Rambaldi's work isn't described by listing his creatures: it's about entering his inner workshop, where mechanics become gesture, sculpture becomes breath, and cinema ceases to be illusion to merge matter and emotion. His work hasn't just changed the aesthetics of special effects: it has taught us to recognize faces...
Memory is not merely an archive of images and words, nor a repository of events stratified over time. It is the very substance of our consciousness, the invisible thread that binds us to the past and enables us to imagine a different future. Without memory, the human being is reduced to an isolated moment, devoid of continuity and...
In memory of Martin Parr: photography as a tool for invention, for critical distortion of reality
"With photography, I like to create fiction out of reality. I try to do this by taking society's natural prejudice and giving it a twist." This phrase is one of Martin Parr , and it perfectly encapsulates his poetics: photography as a tool not of mere recording, but of invention, of critically twisting...
There are figures who don't just design buildings, but redefine the very meaning of architecture. Carlo Ratti belongs to this category: his work is never mere construction, but a thought device. Technology and invisibility, ecology and adaptive materials, economy and natura naturans : tensions coexist in him that...
A master of contemporary architecture meets a timeless location. The Pirrera Sant'Antonio —the evocative Baroque quarry nestled in the Climiti Mountains —will host a keynote lecture by Alberto Campo Baeza , a Madrid-born architect among the most influential on the international scene. The title, Construir con la luz (Building with Light ), captures the essence of...
What is a city? Not just walls, streets, and squares, but a living organism made of relationships, times, and needs. This is the starting point for Iginio Rossi "Accessible Cities for All" program at the National Institute of Urban Planning (INU). His vision is clear: architecture should not limit itself to designing...
In an era where innovation often chases efficiency, the city of Ulm , Germany , has chosen a different path: that of empathy. The Ulmer Nest project represents a concrete and profoundly human response to the housing crisis during Germany's harsh winters. It's not a definitive solution, but a ...
