Expanding on the experience of :AFTER. After History, Afterlife – Festival diffuso di architettura in Sicilia, Continente Sicilia 1922- 2022 collects six interviews with some of the most important Sicilian architects of the last decades of the 20th century. What gather them, in addition to having contributed substantially to recent architectural and urban events on the island, is the fact that they are the custodians of a historical memory that has been largely preserved thanks to the numerous documents, graphics, models and photographs patiently collected over the years. Through autobiographical accounts and amateur shots taken during interviews with these archives-non-archives, without any claim to exhaustiveness, Continente Sicilia 1922 – 2022 aims to provide a historiographical-personal cross-section of contemporary Sicily. Using the words of Franco Cassano, the publication tells of a South that can become “an autonomous subject, a protagonist” capable of taking “the road of modernity in an absolutely original way”.
