A new connection with the city.
We have been isolated in our domestic spaces, we looked at the city from the inside, deprived of explorative and relational possibilities. It’s about time we re-appropriate of the cities, with a new view.
“Vicino a casa”, Genova ©2020 Anna Positano

This new way of directing the look to the city we inhabit is being told in the book Giorni come stanze. Riappropriarsi della città (IT) (Libria, 2020), in which the author Emilia Giorgi – journalist and curator – sees the places where we live ← as they were extensions of our bodies. All that followed to 2020”s springtime lockdown made us understand that it is necessary to continue facing and struggling for reaching a transformation of a system that can’t be anything else, but different, ushered by a responsibility that is individual and collective.
