PRÉSENTATION DE L'ÉDITEUR :

"Quand Monsieur C arrive dans une forêt inhabitée et préservée, il ne voit rien de la beauté qui l'entoure. Pour lui, il n'y a rien du tout. Peut être est-il trop habitué à ce qu'il connaît ou bien est-il aveuglé par ses rêves de grandeur et de mégalopole vrombissante... Dans une frénésie constructive, il érige une ville qui peu à peu pousse la nature hors de la page. Sans feuille de route ni vue d'ensemble, il empile ses constructions jusqu'à ce qu'il ne puisse plus rien ajouter... "Rien" ou "tout", dans cette histoire tout est question de point de vue. Une fable écologique qui questionne de façon sensible le rapport de l'homme avec son environnement et le juste équilibre entre ville et nature."

The various aesthetic interpretations of recycling and reuse expressed through materials, objects, buildings, cities and the environment. A “state of the art” overview of an urgent contemporary issue, aimed at identifying possible future solutions and applications.

The exhibition is the result of an extensive research project launched in the autumn of 2010, which identifies “virtuous actions” in the fields of landscape and urban transformation, as well as experimental strategies for the “recycling” of the existing built heritage. The research was developed through projects, experiences and programmes with a distinctly experimental nature, inclined toward innovation also in terms of expression — a necessary condition for an institution like MAXXI, which is dedicated to contemporary architecture and art.

The exhibition is divided into two main sections.

The first is structured into four specific areas — landscape, city, housing, architecture — bringing together Italian and international projects, data and experiences.

The second gathers a range of works that reinforce the idea of creativity associated with the culture of recycling. In doing so, alongside an ethics of sustainability, it seeks to promote the emergence of an aesthetics of sustainability.

In parallel with the Re-cycle exhibition, a photographic section explores aspects connected to the main theme of the show through the work of contemporary Italian and international photographers. The various aesthetic interpretations of recycling and reuse, expressed through materials, objects, buildings, cities and the environment, define the “state of the art” of a pressing issue, offering clues to future solutions and applications.

Authors from diverse backgrounds and sensibilities are invited to reflect on the concept of recycling from unexpected — at times surprising — perspectives, including Aldo Bonomi, Enrico Ghezzi, Anthony Vidler and Sylvia Lavin.
