Lütjens Padmanabahn Architekten, Competition Entry for the San Riemo Apartment Block (2017).

Guided tours built around the artist or the subject of the exhibition open at Culturgest are available to the general public.
These tours take place on saturdays and wednesdays and apply for prior marking, through telephone or e-mail.

What is ornament?, curated by Ambra Fabi e Giovanni Piovene opens up different angles by evoking artworks, objects, furniture, books, movies and photographs distribute in a set of six collections, transcending history and blur the boundaries among disciplines. 

The debate around ornament and its elusive nature has been crucial in the definition of fundamental turning points in history of architecture. This exhibition will explain how ornament has never completely disappeared, reconnecting to its long-lost history, and demonstrating how it can still exist as an essential issue in contemporary architecture. Can ornament still be considered as integral part of architecture? Can ornament still be a quantitative and qualitative choice? Can we still imagine its precise positioning?
