BOITO ARCHITETTO ARCHIVIO DIGITALE

The thesis of the exhibition and the digital archive is to bring Camillo Boito's multifaceted activity back within the cultural dimension of architectural design, as a catalyst for a galaxy that includes “unity of the arts,” educational and civic institutions, and productive subjects of “know-how.” The works addressed by Boito (schools, hospitals, welfare institutions, cemeteries, etc.) are monuments to urban civilization. But not only that, they are the accumulation of a cultural industry that prefigured even then an industry of the arts.
