Thoughts

UNA's preoccupations span beyond the building and restoration of architectural artefacts to the realm of editorial and academia. 
Course Diploma 15: The Museum Lab, Manifesta Edition Giulia Foscari 2015-2016, Architectural Association
The investigations of the AA Museum Lab on the role of museums and cultural institutions, their paradoxes and transformations, is carried forward focussing on the Mediterranean and its epicentre: Palermo.

Aiming to reveal unknown practices of cultural production in the city and in the sites of origin/destination of its fluctuating and (at times) temporary population, the students are invited to develop their thesis project based on independent research and to articulate their findings though an expanding collection of work-books critically edited, designed and produced. Ultimately formatted in provocative media of choice, the individual projects will be presented in Palermo in form of a collective exhibition – an official Collateral Event of Manifesta.
