On death, architecture, and the poetic visions of Carlo Scarpa and Aldo Rossi.

Beyond the Life of Forms is a contemplative filmic journey into two of the most iconic funerary architectures of the 20th century: the Brion Cemetery by Carlo Scarpa and the San Cataldo Cemetery by Aldo Rossi. The film explores how these spaces transcend physical form to touch on themes of memory, silence, ritual, and absence.

Through evocative imagery and reflective narration, directors Francesco Conversano and Nene Grignaffini examine how Scarpa and Rossi each constructed meditations on death that remain deeply resonant today. The Brion complex emerges as a lyrical composition of material and light, while San Cataldo is presented as a metaphysical geometry of voids. Together, the two sites become points of entry into architecture as a spiritual and philosophical practice.

  • The screening is supported by The Italian Cultural Institute
  • A film by Francesco Conversano and Nene Grignaffini
  • Year: 2021, length: 63 min.
  • Introduction in English, film in Italian with English subtitles.

Om døden, arkitektur og de poetiske visioner hos Carlo Scarpa og Aldo Rossi.

Beyond the Life of Forms er en kontemplativ filmisk rejse ind i to af det 20. århundredes mest ikoniske gravarkitekturer: Brion-kirkegården af Carlo Scarpa og San Cataldo-kirkegården af Aldo Rossi. Filmen udforsker, hvordan disse rum rækker ud over deres fysiske form og berører temaer som erindring, stilhed, ritual og fravær.

Gennem stemningsfulde billeder og reflekterende fortælling undersøger instruktørerne Francesco Conversano og Nene Grignaffini, hvordan Scarpa og Rossi hver især skabte meditationer over døden, der stadig vækker dyb genklang i dag. Brion-komplekset fremstår som en lyrisk komposition af materiale og lys, mens San Cataldo præsenteres som en metafysisk geometri af tomrum. Sammen bliver de to steder adgangspunkter til arkitekturen som en åndelig og filosofisk praksis.

  • Visningen er støttet af Det Italienske Kulturinstitut.
  • En film af Francesco Conversano og Nene Grignaffini
  • År: 2021, varighed: 63 min.
  • Introduktion på engelsk, filmen er på italiensk med engelske undertekster.
