Brescia / Italy / 2023

EDICOLA is a temporary pavilion designed for the cultural association Line Culture on the occasion of Bergamo Brescia Capitali italiane della cultura 2023.
A totemic element with a square base 2x2 metres and a height of 6 metres, built in Piazza Tebaldo Brusato in Brescia.When closed EDICOLA becomes a landmark within the square, a true cultural “stronghold”; when it is open, however, it indicates the activity of the cultural association Line Culture. EDICOLA reinterprets the role of the city's newsstands: it distributes culture, but through another action: the production of inclusive cultural events. The structure, made of scaffoldings, galvanized iron, and polycarbonate, is designed to be easily assembled and disassembled in several locations around the city: a wandering cultural “stronghold”.
