Firenze e le avanguardie Radicali. Progetti, azioni, super-visioni, oggetti extra<\/b>\u00a0 is an exhibition and a seminar focused\u00a0 on the Radical experiences developed in Florence that started in the mid-sixties and carried on to the mid-seventies.
\nThrough research, modelling, drawings and video interviews, the exhibition reconstructs the historical events of the Radical movement born\u00a0 in Florence\u2019s Faculty of Architecture during the sixties. The movement started with some students\u2019 experimental thesis projects, which later became the undisputed protagonists of the florentine Radical avantgarde: Archizoom, Superstudio, UFO, 9999, Zziggurat, Gianni Pettena, Remo Buti.<\/p>\n
The Radicals\u2019 ideas were revolutionary and were born from the need to contrast and go beyond the old traditions, enhancing concepts of teamwork and collective participation. They gate crashed urban spaces with provocative visual messages aimed against the traditional city as well as promoting alternative ways of living. These actions contributed to consecrate the Radical movement\u2019s international success.
\nFlorence, the historical city par excellence, became the starting point for the Radical ideas to spread globally through the most famous architecture, design, art and literature magazines, investigating the future of a society perpetually poised between democracy and bureaucracy.<\/p>\n
