Abstract
The paper shows a Best Practice, based on the topics of beauty, art and landscape, which are the core issues in strengthening the identity of communities. The artist residence: "Art, Landscape and culture of food", in Massa Lubrense was funded by an agreement between the Associazione Ristoratori Lubrensi (ARL), the Department of Architecture (DiARC) of the University of Naples Federico II and the Municipality of Massa Lubrense. It also involves synergy with schools, associations and citizens. In this scenario, artistic production is a driver to rebuild deep links with the tangible and intangible cultural resources of the Historic Urban Landscape (UNESCO, 2011). The strategy implemented, engages the actors on the territory in a path of reading and reinterpreting places, recognized as identity features by the community, in order to share the responsibility of their care and maintenance (EC 2005). The pilot project, carried out in the area of S. Costanzo Mount, is a pilgrimage destination and scenic point that embraces the Gulf of Naples and the Gulf of Salerno in a single view. The project identifies artist residencies as a method to promote awareness processes, triggering a collective dimension of responsibility. To face the disappearance of co-evolutionary dynamics, which for centuries have bound communities and places, art is proposed as an engine for the awareness and cohesion of civil society toward beauty. This to counter the disruptive pressures that alter environmental and architectural heritages.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
