Città Nera

Studien zur Räumlichkeit der Stadt Catania

Because of its turbulent history, Catania is a city with a memorable identity, founded on style and stone. The late Baroque structure of the city points to a continental culture in the basic elements of style via the Roman model; but the basalt that paves streets and squares, walls plinths and pilasters, and colors plasters sooty, unmistakably locates the black city at the foot of Mount Etna. The contrast makes Catania an object lesson: a truly urban architecture has not only to transmit the innumerable stories of the places, but at the same time to preserve its own history...
