Massimo Spada’s photography becomes testimony to, and an opportunity to reflect on, an extraordinarily significant work of architecture: the ‘houses’ of the new town of Longarone, designed by architect Valeriano Pastor immediately after the Vajont Dam disaster. It is a historical experience using photography, a record of reality that conciliates the relationship between individual sensibility and the world, then becoming a recollection, and once again a memory. In this open format document there is a perpetual present, a changing vision, open to continuous reinterpretation and, perhaps, new considerations.
