Sun, 21 Mar 2010 09:00:28 -0700 Designers and craftsmans: the Palladian lesson http://oddtag.posterous.com/designers-and-craftsmans-the-palladian-lesson http://oddtag.posterous.com/designers-and-craftsmans-the-palladian-lesson A key aspect of the success of the style of Palladio was due to his direct knowledge of materials and construction techniques. From this base Palladio built his theoretical knowledge, his travels, his culture construction. He draws its villas and entrusts the construction to trusted foremen familiar with the rules of art. Design and craftsmanship. A theory that starts from practice, a practice that needs theory. [it] Una degli aspetti essenziali del successo dello stile di Palladio era dovuto alla conoscenza diretta dei materiali e delle tecniche costruttive. Da questa base Palladio costruisce le sue conoscenze teoriche, i suoi viaggi, la sua cultura della costruzione. Disegna le sue ville e affida la costruzione a capomastri fidati che conoscono a fondo le regole dell'arte. Design e artigianato. Una teoria che parte dalla pratica, una pratica che ha bisogno della teoria. link: Venice 2132 - Open Studio - www.fondazioneclaudiobuziol.org

Thu, 22 Nov 2007 15:26:03 -0800 Mission possible/impossible/don't know http://oddtag.posterous.com/mission-possibleimpossibledont-know http://oddtag.posterous.com/mission-possibleimpossibledont-know txt from: Extraordinary daily[article in italian]
"If the mission of art has been to propose new ways of conceiving and feeling to everybody - and not to just a narrow circle of people - not just on special occasions but in everyday life, then it becomes necessary to think about the fact that maybe the art has completed his historic task. Better: design has taken charge of that task, and it is nowadays at the forefront in the job of displacement, erosion, activation, modulation on the edge between possible/impossible, real/surreal, daily/extraordinary."
