Milan, December 2010 How can i highlight and reflect on this crucial change? We begin to count the buildings that touch the sky, the historic ones, the ones just ended, newly initiated.
A sequential numbering of buildings that rise in height in the Central Station, Island, Varese, Farini. In that, at the center of the city, is the emblem of this transformation. We count in chronological order, from the Pirelli skyscraper tower of the new regional headquarters, towers still under construction. And we combine all the numbers with a line that traces the map of the city of the future.
The project includes two phases:
1) From December 1, 2010 until January 2011, the number series will be progressively installed on the towers involved. Each issue will have bright red color and height of nine meters;
2) from February 2011 until April 2011, the number of dialogues with the city, through a lighting scheme piloted by the authors and the public through social networks.
The installation will end April 17, 2011.
Growing By Numbers
: we've all played at least once to join a tratto di penna i numeri e a ricavarne un disegno di senso compiuto. In inglese questo passatempo si chiama “drawing by numbers”. Con un gioco di parole, qui il termine
drawing
(disegnare) viene sostituito da drawing
growing (crescere). E’ il disegno della città del futuro. Designer
