Off

OFF is an academic gathering revolving around the recognised state of being off-focus.

Rather than renouncing knowledge, the blurred view encourages creative unease and the embrace of lateral questioning and permanent enquiry.

OFF collects random subjects and artefacts relating to architecture, urbanism and landscape, prividing material for debate.

Convivio dell’Abbondanza investigates food preservation from pre-refrigeration devices to the contemporary cold chain, reinterpreting it as an urban device capable of reactivating the public dimension, restoring to the square its function as a place of common life and collective care.
