Vorrei tanto tornare a casa (e che questo volesse anche dire tornare dove sei tu)

Next to the theatre Les Brigittines and right across from the railway line that cuts the city in two, there stands a tenement building: 11 storeys, 4 elevators, 156 apartments and… around 500 residents. Working together with them, Italian artist Anna Rispoli will transform the building into a dazzling living architecture. By this action the residence will build a temporary monument celebrating their own domestic life. The installation was created once, on the opening night of Kunstenfestivaldesarts 09.
Vorrei tanto tornare a casa invites the public to contemplate for some minutes the monumental social housing building of Les Visitandines.
This architecture is mirrored by the music of Concret Ph, originally conceived by the greek composer Iannis Xenakis for the Philips Pavilion at the Brussels World’s Fair in 1958.
The inhabitants of the houses, for their part, re-invent for a moment their habits inside the built structure, using domestic tools to comunicate with the outside. The notion of house is questioned, results are unpredictable.
