Conceived as a video installation commissioned by Rem Koolhaas for the last Architecture International Venice Biennale (2014), “La Maddalena” deals with a political, architectural and environmental disaster which occurred in a small island of Northern Sardinia in 2009 and explores the question of failure in architecture. • Just 3 miles away, the island of Budelli is an earthly paradise. Mauro Morandi, solitary guardian of the island, has been living for more than 25 years as a Robinson Crusoe of the XXI century. Using what the storms and tides spill onto the beaches, he creates objects, sculptures and furniture. La Maddalena Chair is one of his creations, made of wood reclaimed from the sea and pieces of Murano glass from the facade of the former Arsenal. • The two videos represent two stories of lonely resistance in reaction to the waste the G8 affair embodies: the political reflection of Stefano Boeri who comes back on the reasons of this painful failure and the poetic act of Mauro Morandi which, through recycling, makes us think about the ethics of creation. • --- • “A powerful film portrait of an abandoned modernist Italian building caught in the crossfire • of corruption and the law.” Huffington Post • “Touching and tormented.” A.
