Staging of the outer spaces of Zisa (Palermo), during the “Festival del Novecento”

Conditions

Project budget and timing very strict

Project choices

Accurate, non- extensive intervention planned in order to characterise and specify those areas of the compound that would be involved in the event.

Each “location” is made recognisable through a specific type of intervention: industrial coarse materials for long-lasting alterations; top quality graphics using large size historical images of the area to decorate the conference location; extensive placement of vertical flags (reminding the shape of the traditional flags exposed during the exhibitions in the 19th century) along the entrance hallway.
