Condominium-Museum Model Goes Viral: Open Call to Replicate viadellafucina16

In 2016, Brice Coniglio, a co-founder of Coniglio Viola, established viadellafucina16 at via La Salle 16 in Turin's Porta Palazzo area, marking the world's first international condominium-museum, which consists of 53 apartments and accommodates over 200 residents. An open call for artists led by Coniglio received 442 submissions from around the globe, with support from renowned artists Giorgio Griffa and Michelangelo Pistoletto. A scientific committee is responsible for proposing projects that residents can approve. This innovative model is being prepared for broader implementation through the OpenLab initiative of Compagnia di San Paolo, in partnership with various organizations, aiming to find new buildings in Northwest Italy for similar projects. Kaninchen-Haus will choose three condominiums for planning, with applications accepted until January 21, 2020, via www.condominiomuseo.it.
