LINA Platform: ARCHITECTURE OF CURE / Krvavica, 27 April – 1 May 2024
The DAI-SAI Architecture of Cure program continues its exploration of critical architectural heritage, aiming to transform both physical and intangible environments from what were once “spaces of common disease” into places of “common healing”.
This initiative began in 2023, initially titled From Care to Cure and Back, with a focus on The Children’s Maritime Health Resort of Military Insured Persons, a remarkable architectural creation by the enigmatic Croatian architect Rikard Marasović in 1965. Through the lens of film, the program reimagined the mentioned architecture, envisioning alternative concepts of social interaction and spatial organization.
The Architecture of Cure initiative now convenes a “pre-summer school” comprising selected LINA (Learning, Interacting, Networking in Architecture) fellows, international experts, and members of the local community. In collaboration with the Lisbon Architecture Triennale, some of the invited LINA fellows will incorporate their findings or conclude their Periple Duet “residency on the move” in Krvavica. This integration aims to merge existing knowledge about The Children’s Health Resort with innovative, on-site experimental practices, including art installations and “daily performances”. The primary focus lies in redefining notions of collectivity, performativity, and materiality, leading up to a community festival scheduled for May 1st.
