The University of Ferrara participated in the campaign #laculturanonsiferma promoted by the Emilia-Romagna Institute for Artistic, Cultural and Natural Heritage. The initiative offered people the opportunity to follow the cultural offer of our region, which was temporarily suspended due to the COVID emergency, using the digital platform Lepida TV on digital TV channel 118. During the programme, the video City of paper | City of stone - The professional archive of Carlo Savonuzzi was shown, created by the University Library System in collaboration with the University of Ferrara Architecture Department and the Emilia-Romagna Archival and Bibliographical Superintendency, and produced with the University of Ferrara Centre for Technologies for Communication, Innovation and Distance Learning.
The video illustrates the activities for protection and promotion performed on the papers from the archive of architect and engineer Carlo Savonuzzi, who practised his profession in Ferrara from 1922 to 1965, designing some of the most important public buildings in the city and contributing to the transformation of the urban landscape.
