Occupy Farnsworth. Imaginary project as a tool for understanding modern architectural icons

Dialoguing with the artistical, cultural and architectonical heritage involves coming face to face not only with the tangible reality but also with the intangible: the idealization they under go and the crystallisation of the collective imaginary about them.
It is about facing the limits of these visions to overcome them and produce new stratified values on the existing. The goal is to collectively take back the value of the heritage, no longer through idealization and contemplation but by searching for what could have been or could be, what has not been
or is not yet.
