La tutela formale del patrimonio architettonico modermo: la Facultad de Arte Teatral della Universidad de Las Artes dell’Avana.

Abstract

The international cooperation project between Italy and Cuba, ¡Que no baje el telón! is aimed at the restoration and functional recovery of the Facultad de Arte Teatral of the Universidad de las Artes in La Havana (Cuba). The project has made possible to address the delicate issue of relationship between the work of the conservator, the will of the author of the work and the artefact itself. Despite the existence of specific provisions of the law, the formal protection of modern and contemporary architecture (in the absence or in the presence of restrictions) is a delicate operation. Those people called to intervene must have the capability to manage an articulated set of premises, from the state of conservation of the building to the needs of the community that uses it.
