Why the BRAU Biennale
There isn't at the moment an institutionalized place of permanent comparison and verification on international scale of the experimentations in the fields of architectural restoration and of the reorganization of the existing city.Therefore the Biennial exhibition allows a reasoned exposure about past or in progress intervention, addressing issues of cultural and theoretical definition, as well as issues relating to the use of technology and the assessment of residual values and characteristics of the architectural heritage.
Another important issue concerns the re-development and re-invention of architectural and urban spaces, in a perspective linked to the regional peculiarities and proper use of local resources.
Technical and cultural approach
The project of the Biennale has been the result of a careful analysis of all aspects (cultural, social, economic, technological and market-related) that affect the implementation of "Project of existence" obstructing an exchange between ideas and action, and exchange vital to promote intervention strategies capable of governing processes in an integrated storage and processing, preserving values, resources and documents, and respond to the key needs and expectations.
This first Biennale provides a setting and technical articles that gravitates around cultural aspects of management, technological and economic, with a vision of such highly interdisciplinary.
There is no evidence that earlier exhibitions have addressed all of these aspects.
Another important aspect is the nature of continuity of the two-year project, which will create a place of confrontation and be constantly updated and internationally, so far not found neither in Italy nor abroad.
