    L'Arte per la scienza, una storia tra filantropia e mecenatismo

    Nell'ambito del volume dedicato alla figura di Renzo Melotti (1933-2020) ed alle sue esperienze professionali e di vita come gallerista, filantropo e collezionista, il contributo ricostruisce il suo impegno filantropico condotto principalmente nella città di Ferrara, ma ugualmente sul territorio nazionale. Le molteplici relazioni che Melotti ha stabilito durante la sua attività di gallerista, il suo amore per l'arte si sono certamente fuse alla sua sensibilità verso problematiche sociali legate al mondo dell'infanzia costretta per la malattie a lunghe degenze ospedaliere. Da qui il suo aiuto ed il suo sostegno rivolti all'Ospedale S. Anna di Ferrara ed al Meyer di Firenze, per citare solo due casi emblematici di una ben più ampia attività di benefattore. Su tali energie si sofferma lo scritto che lascia emergere con obiettività, i punti di forza e di debolezza che hanno segnato tale impegno come tratto della sua articolata personalità

    UAV photogrammetric survey and image-Based elaborations for an Industrial Plant.

    The proposed application of the HBIM methodology for digitising a productive-industrial structure is based on the integration of data from different sources. An aerial photogrammetric survey (Unmanned Aerial Vehicle - UAV) was considered the most appropriate technique for the case. Therefore, a Scan-to-BIM modelling was carried out, keeping in mind a subsequent texturisation of the smart objects employing the photogrammetric images obtained from the UAV survey. Currently, applying the BIM methodology to the built environment is still a challenge; indeed, three-dimensional modelling based on survey point clouds is not automatic. Any BIM software is designed for new constructions, whereas the existing Heritage is characterised by unique and distinctive shapes, where each element has a specific and variable inclination, shape and thickness; therefore, it is necessary to adapt the available tools. Creating intelligent parametric objects capable of representing the unique and singular shapes and geometries of historic architecture is a significant challenge of HBIM modelling. A workflow for the acquisition, processing and management of the survey data and the consequent modelling in a BIM environment of a disused industrial plant previously used as a tobacco factory was formalised. The aim was, therefore, to develop a model that is as close as possible to the real one and, at the same time, still keeps the informative aspects in order to promote the conservation and possible refurbishment of the cultural heritage through the use of photorealistic visualisation tools in real-time. The results confirm the proposed strategy hypotheses and seem to lead to promising future developments

    Insinuanti prospettive dello sguardo

    Il testo prende in esame l'esperienza dell'artista napoletana Anna Maria Bova, in particolare l'intervento realizzato nella Basilica di Santa Maria della Sanità di Napoli. Un lavoro per il quale senza tradire il proprio linguaggio espressivo, è andata incontro alle esigenze della comunità ecclesiale, ricollocando dentro una cornice formale gli ex voto di proprietà della chiesa. Reiterando questi oggetti con un apparente caos sulle superfici delle sue opere, l'artista ha imboccato la strada del far corrispondere il progetto dell'arte con quello della vita

    Richardson, Barbauld, and the construction of an early modern fan club

    No full text
    MPhilMuch has been written about the life and long works of the eighteenth century epistolary novelist, Samuel Richardson, but the prospect of his position as the first celebrity novelist – responsible for courting his own fame as well as initiating his own fan club – has largely been ignored. The body of manuscripts housed at the National Art Library in the Victoria and Albert Museum in London provides the modern scholar with evidence of the skeletal beginnings of an early fan club. This thesis aims to show how these manuscripts were turned into a saleable commodity by the publisher and entrepreneur Richard Phillips, while under the guiding hand of another, slightly later, literary celebrity, Anna Laetitia Barbauld. In order to restore Richardson’s reputation amongst a new nineteenth century audience, Barbauld was required to construct her own idea of him as an eighteenth century celebrity author, and in doing so the insecurities of a self-professed, apparently diffident man, are revealed. Barbauld’s capacious, but heavily edited selection of letters is analyzed in this thesis, providing ample evidence that Richardson’s correspondents were more than just eager letter writers. By using Barbauld’s biography of Richardson this thesis aims to show how she manipulates the genre of life writing in her construction of him. This thesis offers an alternative reading of how the Richardson manuscripts are viewed, redefining them as not simply a collection of letters, but as a collective entity, deliberately selected and archived as evidence of an early modern fan club, and its celebrity managing director
