Venue
Auditorium Paganini and Congress Centre of the Municipality of Parma
The new Auditorium by the worldwide known architect Renzo Piano, is built upon the remnants of the walled structure of the Eridania Sugar Factory.
It shows an admirable work of connecting the past and future, between two epochs that are by now truly distant. The workspace and that of the machines has been regenerated and transformed into a space for culture and a rediscovery of humanity.
But these passages and mutations are neither automatic nor casual. They are experiments that only succeed under extraordinary conditions.
The genius of Renzo Piano, the unanimous master of international architecture, made sure that the experiment was not only executed in a perfect way, but that the result occurred as if from a spontaneous and absolutely natural transformation.
The immense windows that go from head to toe of the building allow the internal space to flood with light, the green of the park, the air and the music.
