The “Creative Art” workshop is a journey in territories where natural processes of morphogenesis tamper in the cultural ecosystem, exploring different ways of generating and representing ideas (as well as the intricate interplay between these two creative conditions) through art concepts applied as an intensive search for spatial conditions in order to configure architectonical spaces. The workshop is directed to undergraduate students (1st to 3rd year, facolty of Architecture, AIU), with little or no knowledge of digital generative tools. Aim of this course is to give students insights on different ways to generate and represent ideas combining exercises based on art examples and nature processes as paradigms. The goal will be achieved through theoretical classes, personal research and practical workshops.

[.] 02. 20100106 16.30>19.30 :: concept research, first pin-up

Students start working on the fast production of concepts for a pavilion or an installation to be placed in a site inside the AIU (choice of site is up to each group); pin-up at the end of the day.
Today's lecture (by Prof. Alessio Erioli) is "Bodies, space, ornaments", in which the interaction of bodies in space is unfold, as well as bodies' and architectures' systemic structure as nested parts and wholes, implying the concept of scale, as well as ornament as a way to solve issues of articulation and differentiation. The last part focuses on elegance, presented as a search for fineness driven by craft.
