Napoli: Notes from Underground

Seminarwoche (051-0901)
Veranstalter: Professur Ursprung
Dozierende: Prof. Dr. Philip Ursprung
 

Since Antiquity, Naples has fascinated its visitors. Located under the most dangerous of Europe’s volcanoes, the city is emblematic for the precarious nature of civilization. Near Naples, our forebears located the mythical entrance to the underworld. Covered and protected by the ashes of Vesuvius the ruins of Pompeji keep the traces of daily life in the Roman Empire. For the enlightened aristocracy in the 18th and 19th century, Naples was the highlight of the Grand Tour. And today, its busy port, the booming, informal textile industry and the omnipresence of the Camorra are thrilling subjects for artists and theoreticians alike. How does the economic structure inform the built environment? How do the past and the present intertwine? On our expedition, we will explore the edges and the underground of the city, baroque chapels and fascist buildings. The members of the Roman artists group Stalker will be our guides. Armin Linke, Michael Clegg and Tobias Wootton with their photography students from HfG Karlsruhe will be our companions in the attempt to find answers and ask new questions.
