Our belief is that the contemporary culture of museum, history and heritage is permeating the society and deeply concerns the way the architects operate with design in architecture, cities and territory and their “landscapes” of interior and exterior spaces of human living as places of collective memory and understanding. Museography becomes a “space of interpretation and knowledge” non only concerning objects and collections but also architecture, its history and settings, and territory with its complex historical and cultural stratifications. 1998-­‐2000 “MUSEI DEL LAVORO” The research deals with the coordination of the work on the Museum of Culture City Polytechnic University and to collect examples of interventions conversion of assets of Industrial Archaeology.

The Project moves from the European call Reinterpreting Europe’s cultural heritage: towards 21st century libraries and museums? and aims to define new strategies for museums and libraries in a context characterized by a continuous migration of people and ideas. MeLa reflects, with an interdisciplinary approach, on the role of museums, dealing with several complex and crucial issues such as history, socio-­‐cultural and national identity, the use of new technologies and, last but not least, exhibition design and museography. The Project therefore involves nine European partners, including different universities, two museums, a research institute and a SME (small enterprise), which have all been chosen for their specific competences and skills in the fields of the project. The main objective of MeLa is to achieve a relevant advancement in terms of knowledge. To reach its goal the Project will exploit and develop different research actions and tools including both innovative ones – as ‘Brainstorming’ modules and ‘Research by Art’ – and traditional ones – as Desk & Field Research and Call for Papers. Awarded with FP7 Grant of 2.700.000 euros with the research project (9 Institutions, 6 countries, 4 years programme). Related publications F. LANZ, G. POSTIGLIONE (2012).

The theme of industrial archaeology is expanded and enhanced with a new value related to the idea of a recovery that does not distort the identity of places, focusing on abandoned and dismissed realms and marginal environments. Marginality and miss-­‐use of everyday scapes can be identified as main focus of design interest. Iconography is provided under the section: Teaching activity Theme 1: Adaptive Re-­‐use & RE-­‐Active-­‐actions Researches focus mainly on reuse and valorisation of minor heritage – among which also the one coming from conflicts -­‐ and on the relationship between collective memory and cultural identity, putting the resources of architecture in the public interest. Adaptive reuse ensues from the assumption that identities are formed in the correlation and interdependence between places and people(s). Once the interrelations break, a place loses its meaning and people lose their sense of belonging to that place. Places traditionally are the crucibles of people’s identity, the concrete background of people’s actions and life, the prerequisite of the creation of cultures, skills and economies. Place-­‐ identity refers to the construction of identity for and by the people(s), through the reference to a place, as well as the construction of identity for a place, through the reference to its materiality: morphology, architectural forms, spaces, objects, artefacts, namely the material heritage that is stratified on the territory. GENNARO POSTIGLIONE -­‐ CV 11/40 Theme 2: Culture of Dwelling & the Art of Inhabitation In connection with research on the theme "Living Tradition, domestic architecture, modernity," which involves the problems of living and relationships between built form and culture of the company that owns, were made of the design experiments and historical research criticism with some undergraduates. The study aims to discover a relationship that links the most recent and contemporary achievements with the "tradition", trying to overcome the dialectical opposition between tradition and modernity. Theme 3: The sky as ceiling: acting in the ladscape The goal is to propose a way to develop the project able to understand the context more as a starting point and reference point. In these terms, each spatial position itself as a "room" and each project action as an "intervention on the existing". ////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// Scientific activity Seminars & Conferences -­‐ curatorship 2014 REcall – European Conflict Heritage Landscape Reappropriation: Beyond Memorialisation, Closing symposium Atmospheres: human environments, Milano Design week and Biennale di Venezia Sessions Athens course: Modern Interior Architecture 1, Politecnico di Milano (Spring term) Athens course: Modern Interior Architecture 2, Politecnico di Milano (NOV) Design for remembrance and for thinking, Source symposium, Design Academy Eindhoven (OCT) – together with Lorenzo Bini Borghi abandoned and Borghi reloded in Italy, seminar, Politecnico di Milano (NOV) 2013 Lecture series: Around Robin Hood Gardens.

Due the teaching and research commitments at POLIMI, from 1998 I decreased my participation until I quitted from the office. From 2005, a new form of collaboration started with the office of a young practitioner in Milano, arch Lorenzo Bini (Studiometrico and now Binocle) who has been until 2012 also my teaching partner in Design studios at the Master level. Mainly, my collaboration is based in consultant work on different commissions but with special attention to competitions and building transformations. 1988 – 2000 partner of the FGP studio practice in Napoli (http://ec2.it/fgpstudio) 2005 – on going consultant partner of the Binocle studio practice in Milan (http://binocle.it/) Competitions 1994 -­‐ Europe and Young Designers, Frankfurt (Mention) 1997 -­‐ Reuse of roof space for dwelling, Milan (Second prize – no first prize assigned-­‐with FGP studio) -­‐ Once upon the time: the vault house, Naples (Third prize-­‐with FGP studio) 1999 -­‐ IUAV extension, Venezia (Third prize – with FGP studio and Studio Archea) 2000 -­‐ Naples waterfront, Naples (Third prize-with FGP studio) 2005 -­‐ Abitare a Milano 2: Social Housing, Milano (with Binocle) -­‐ Dublino Waterfront (with Binocle) 2006 -­‐ Urban voids re-­‐use: Tokyo (with Binocle) 2007 -­‐ Diocesan Museum extension, Milano, taking part at the pre-­‐qualification (with Binocle) -­‐ Archaeological Museum extension, Bari, taking part at the pre-­‐qualification (with Binocle) GENNARO POSTIGLIONE -­‐ CV 20/40 ////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// List of pubblications GENNARO POSTIGLIONE -­‐ CV 21/40 GENNARO POSTIGLIONE -­‐ CV 22/40 GENNARO POSTIGLIONE -­‐ CV 23/40 GENNARO POSTIGLIONE -­‐ CV 24/40 GENNARO POSTIGLIONE -­‐ CV 25/40 GENNARO POSTIGLIONE -­‐ CV 26/40 GENNARO POSTIGLIONE -­‐ CV 27/40 GENNARO POSTIGLIONE -­‐ CV 28/40 GENNARO POSTIGLIONE -­‐ CV 29/40 GENNARO POSTIGLIONE -­‐ CV 30/40 GENNARO POSTIGLIONE -­‐ CV 31/40 GENNARO POSTIGLIONE -­‐ CV 32/40 GENNARO POSTIGLIONE -­‐ CV 33/40 GENNARO POSTIGLIONE -­‐ CV 34/40 GENNARO POSTIGLIONE -­‐ CV 35/40 GENNARO POSTIGLIONE -­‐ CV 36/40 GENNARO POSTIGLIONE -­‐ CV 37/40 GENNARO POSTIGLIONE -­‐ CV 38/40 GENNARO POSTIGLIONE -­‐ CV 39/40 -­‐ -­‐ -­‐ -­‐ Forthcoming publications Postscriptum, in M.
