Raffaella Maddaluno (Author)
The industrial architectural space raises interest and arouses people’s curiosity. Many authors have written about the relationship between industrial space and machines, the meaning of space in relation to the concept of work, the nature of industrial products and their aesthetic value. But a major problem posed by industrial spaces comes when the machines leave a space, due to the obsolescence or degradation of the building. At this point, such spaces begin their relationship with the “void.” But if through dismantling a factory, a “vacuum” is created, then soon another entity will emerge to give the space form and characteristics. How does a productive “vacuum” fill up? Which new entity will replace the heavy material presence of the machines? What kind of activities are related to this form of “sublimation of matter”? In re-appropriations of industrial spaces, this task is often entrusted to various forms of art. Then the concept of production “normality” is replaced by artistic “exceptionality.” This articles analyses some of the leading examples of the filling of industrial “voids” in Italy and Portugal, focusing on how the spaces in question maintain or deny their previous relationship with machines.
