Description
The 20th century witnessed the traumatic experiences arising from the world wars, the horrors of the Shoah and other carnages. Collective catastrophes of this kind inevitably mark a moment of rupture and discontinuity in their artistic-literary representation, which requires interpretation beyond any celebratory rhetoric. The course intends to investigate the crucial points in the transition from the monuments to the fallen of World War I to the memorials and Holocaust museums, presenting the different architectural typologies used to represent the great tragedies of the 20th century and the debate over their artistic representability.
