Strategie per la conservazione e musealizzazione dei resti delle Terme Romane di Acconia di Curinga

Not only in the necessary and often complex conservation operations, but also in the ability to transform them into something new. In fact, ruins can become a starting point for the project, stimulating the imagination more powerfully than intact historical buildings. The boundary between adding or subtracting material, between ancient and modern, between renovatio and traditio, has long been the subject of debate among scholars, theo-rists, architects, and technicians of historical structures. The tensions between ancient and modern, the dilemma of when and how much the ancient should prevail over the modern and vice versa, and the risk of altering or violating history, remain open questions.
