STEFANO BOERI ARCHITETTI AT THE AWARD CERIMONY OPENTARANTO

march 23rd, 2017

The team leaded by Stefano Boeri Architetti is one of the tree winners of the International Competition of ideas OpenTaranto, to design the requalification and development of Taranto’s old Town. The award cerimony will be tomorrow, March 2017, Friday 24th at 3.00 pm at Aragonese Castle in Taranto.
The group took part to OpenTaranto competition with Taranto Calling project which will presented. is among the 3 short-listed winners. “Taranto’s Old Town is a palimpsest of works and architectures, left behind by history in a plot of land. A historic area dense with buildings and palaces rising from the sea. An island made of stone, cut by the narrow breaches of streets and squeezed between the walls and the docks. A monolith surrounded by the sea, carved in caves and passages connecting, along vertical axes, roofs, terraces and the sea level” explained the architect Stefano Boeri. The project looks for the ransom of a whole world of relations, exchanges, utopias crossing an entire geopolitical basin.
The competition has been promoted in 2016 by Invitalia, aims to the renewal of Taranto’s historic centre, the Old Town, an island between two seas, with great potentialities but basically abandoned.
At the event will be present the Admiral Eduardo SerraIppazio Stefano, the Mayor of  Taranto, Anna Maria Curcuruto, and Mr. Claudio De Vincenti, Ministry of  regional cohesion, who will close the cerimony.
