Martino Pedrozzi&#8217;s Interventions"},"content":{"rendered":"<div>\n<p>For more than 20 years, Swiss  architect Martino Pedrozzi has been working on the partial  reconstruction of derelict dwellings on alpine pastures in the mountains  of southern Switzerland. His interventions in Valle di Blenio and Val  Malvaglia, at altitudes around 6,500 ft in the canton of Ticino, are  part of a scheme to protect and preserve the cultivated landscape shaped  by generations of local farmers grazing their cattle. Pedrozzi  collected and put in place again stones that had been used as building  materials for the ancient dry-stone walled structures, which have been  abandoned in recent decades. This recomposition is meant to reconstruct a  public space and to retain landmarks in the barren alpine landscape,  and to form a monument for the civilisation that has been sustained by  it for centuries.<\/p>\n<p>This book documents Pedrozzi&#8217;s work and  highlights the problem of rural exodus: a constant phenomenon in the  history of human life, caused by conflict, economic change, natural  disasters, and climate change. Here it is about mountain dwellings no  longer used because alpine agriculture has been given up in favour of  better opportunities and more comfortable ways of life.<\/p>\n<p>Text in English and Italian.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Documents a scheme for the preservation of cultivated Alpine landscape and the recconstruction of public space in the Swiss canton of Ticino, highlighting the impact on landscapes of rural exodus in search for better opportunities and more comfortable ways of life.
