Synopsis

The Ground Tour is a journey starting in Vienna, cruising the outskirts of Rome, touching ground in Prato and Florence on our way to the depths of the Venice Lagoon. The tour will grind much too common assumptions about Italy's beauty and culture and will bring onto surface a different portrayal of a country as it is acting at the edges of mainstream society. The journey evocatively recalls the historical Grand Tour of the period of Enlightenment which aimed to educate and open horizons to a privileged class of people which nevertheless tried to contribute to human progress and learn from the experience of travelling.

A propos du livre

À propos de l'auteur

Enrico Tomassini, with Architecture and Cinema as a background his interests and focus naturally broadened towards the development of cross-disciplinary critical approaches to different societal issues, creative processes and urban spaces. He likes to think, to theorise and to put into practice participatory and collaborative processes where storytelling, mapping, critical exploration, spatial and performative interventions are used in order to challenge narratives and representations of a reality.
