I am an independent art historian specialized in History of Architecture and cultural mediator. I work between Lisbon and Italy, and previously I have lived in Germany, Turkey and Spain.. I graduated in Conservation of Cultural Heritage (historical-artistic area, old degree) in Ravenna (University of Bologna) under prof. Stefano Tumidei. Since then I have conducted deeper research about painting and architecture from 17th-century and 18th-century, some of which is published in the atlas of the works of Andrea Vici, edited by Maria Luisa Polichetti (Andrea Vici, Architetto e Ingegnere Idraulico. Altlante delle Opere, Silvana Editoriale). I have worked as conservator in old masters and modern art museums, both public and private, where I dealt with catalogues and started the archiving of existing holdings. Furthermore, I curated exhibition programs and organized the educational department of various cultural institutions.. I currently collaborate also with the Trienal Arquitectura Lisboa (creation of the Documentation Centre) and the Fundação Centro Cultural de Belém (cultural mediator). In the past I have collaborated, among others, with the Gemäldegalerie and Neue Nationalgalerie (Berlin). https://citytime-architectureandtour.com/Texts-on-Cityscape Mon, 10 Jun 2019 19:18:17 +0000 Citytime Architecture Art Cityscape https://citytime-architectureandtour.com/Texts-on-Cityscape &nbsp; &nbsp;<img width="6614" height="2717" width_o="6614" height_o="2717" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/09bbc5056744fad9412a9c6f8db2e98f096d15ea1bd3b3262580d726d15d24b3/logo-ester.png" data-mid="215449620" border="0" data-scale="18" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/09bbc5056744fad9412a9c6f8db2e98f096d15ea1bd3b3262580d726d15d24b3/logo-ester.png" /> CITYTIME Architecture Art Cityscape&nbsp;project is about shared places, such as the architecture. It is common that human beings choose a place to eat and for shelter. It is common that the chosen place is organised and built according to its intended use and with an inclination for aesthetics, however minimal. There are places to meet each other and to produce, places for celebration and private places. The moment we “occupy” a place, it establishes in turn our position in society, which therefore is neither neutral nor impartial, because it determines and conveys one’s image both in the community, and in history.

A short tale - A few weeks ago, I walked through the São João de Brito neighbourhood within a workshop organized by Iscte University. The history of the neighbourhood dates back to the 1960s when families and individuals from rural areas in Portugal arrived in Lisbon in search of work and a better life. They settled on a piece of land near the airport and built makeshift shacks to live in. After April 25, 1974, the population of the neighbourhood grew as Portuguese people returned from former colonies that were gaining independence. Angola and Mozambique were the two countries from which the largest number of people came. <img width="3072" height="4096" width_o="3072" height_o="4096" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/54df0be6a058bfdce872db7f32b7204768d2c97ac5aabeaf0390659d9a0cb125/sao-joao-de-brito-1.jpg" data-mid="178451539" border="0" data-scale="73" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/54df0be6a058bfdce872db7f32b7204768d2c97ac5aabeaf0390659d9a0cb125/sao-joao-de-brito-1.jpg" /> ©esterdonninelli <img width="3072" height="4096" width_o="3072" height_o="4096" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/e57a4a054a1aad13aec0f2b1753c4bfbbcd965ef992fdb3df17ca96b83f75a31/sao-joao-de-brito-2.jpg" data-mid="178451541" border="0" data-scale="73" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/e57a4a054a1aad13aec0f2b1753c4bfbbcd965ef992fdb3df17ca96b83f75a31/sao-joao-de-brito-2.jpg" /> ©esterdonninelli The municipality granted the already partially occupied land, and additional shacks were built over the years. Each family took it upon themselves to adapt and improve their dwellings, gradually replacing mud, wood, stones, and corrugated iron with bricks and cement. Single-family homes of one, two, and occasionally three stories were built. Some were surrounded by a strip of garden or had a small vegetable patch, reminiscent of the housing styles in the areas where the residents originated and, obviously a way to get some food. <img width="1080" height="1920" width_o="1080" height_o="1920" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/dcb5c21736323841f5c6e61e76971c4f0a8e4983a1dd2bc67b5f9fc236c83399/sao-joao-de-brito-3.jpg" data-mid="178451542" border="0" data-scale="74" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/dcb5c21736323841f5c6e61e76971c4f0a8e4983a1dd2bc67b5f9fc236c83399/sao-joao-de-brito-3.jpg" /> ©esterdonninelli <img width="3468" height="4624" width_o="3468" height_o="4624" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/351284b428452adaef9c7ab787dd2df845eac67e7fe0643980aa66e15f94810d/sao-joao-de-brito-4.jpg" data-mid="178451538" border="0" data-scale="74" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/351284b428452adaef9c7ab787dd2df845eac67e7fe0643980aa66e15f94810d/sao-joao-de-brito-4.jpg" /> ©esterdonninelli The municipality promised to legalize the dwellings, but for decades, the situation remained stagnant, with families living in constant fear of forced eviction. In 2017, the official redevelopment works for the neighbourhood were approved by the municipality, which included the complete replacement of the sewage, electrical, gas, lighting, water, and telecommunication systems. It also seems that the process of legalizing the neighbourhood had started in that year. <img width="3468" height="4624" width_o="3468" height_o="4624" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/172951529b1c60ed08126552a703b3303cf9a016155936c1892df3402c3c756d/sao-joao-de-brito-6.jpg" data-mid="178451540" border="0" data-scale="75" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/172951529b1c60ed08126552a703b3303cf9a016155936c1892df3402c3c756d/sao-joao-de-brito-6.jpg" /> ©esterdonninelli <img width="3468" height="4624" width_o="3468" height_o="4624" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/f6a35a0a368a2eb1d0269695dc5164d393fdbb9259773cd95d70b89c47dba0e8/sao-joao-de-brito-5.jpg" data-mid="178451537" border="0" data-scale="75" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/f6a35a0a368a2eb1d0269695dc5164d393fdbb9259773cd95d70b89c47dba0e8/sao-joao-de-brito-5.jpg" /> ©esterdonninelli The construction works began in 2021. I believe they have been completed, but there is a lack of green spaces, shops, and a gathering centre for the elderly, who represent the largest age group. There is a lack of urban identity because the residents have already given to their homes their own architectural identity, building them brick by brick with their own hands. The Residents' Association has been fighting since 1990 for the legalization of the bairro and for improving the living conditions of its population. This story is just one of the stories about the processes of non-change in a city as Lisbon, the frictions opposed to urban improvement, which should mean a tangible improvement in the lives of everyone. 11 may 2023
