the installation connects and simultaneously confronts two mutually exclusive concepts. the barcelona pavilon is a shallow and harmonic building with a staircase at ground level, opening up towards a cultivated park and prestine nature. instead of a water basin, casa malaparte is surounded by wilderness and the raw sea. instead of a horizontal layout, the vertical arrangement of casa malaparte is dominated by a large and wide staircase towards the sky as a central architctural element. the large scale and painting-like windows open up to the sea, rocks and the wild vegetation. t h e o w n e r, w r i t e r a n d a r c h i t e c t c u r z i o m a l a p a r t e r e g a r d e d h i s h o u s e a s a self portrait - glum, stale, rigerous
