Résumé:
The contemporary context is defined by a unique conjuncture. On one hand, we witness the revival of the radical architecture that from the avant-garde experiments of the origins recovers creative processes and iconographic fragments while nullifying the original ideological and political values. On the other hand, we see social protests in defense of fundamental rights of democracy, as in 1968. Architecture is now reinvestigating those ephemeral experiments that have endured half a century as new "stone monuments" capable of indicating new perspectives for both research and design. Placing UFO group at the core of the contemporary debate means investigating their formal and seductive aspects, but also the ideological, political and social values with which objects, installations and happenings have been innervated, transforming them into devices of an architecture nourished by literature, art and political commitment for the foundation of an eloquent and activist project even more radical than the well-known Superstudio and Archizoom. The collaboration between Beatrice Lampariello and False Mirror Office lead to a monograph focused on the UFO’s work and an evaluation of their legacy relative to contemporary architecture.

Résumé:
Le moment est venu d’archiver l’« architecture radicale ». Mais cela signifie de considérer ce moment comme le chapitre clé d’une trajectoire culturelle qui porte un autre titre : celui d’une architecture rationaliste comprise comme l’une des composantes du Mouvement moderne les plus expérimentales : machine à habiter, existenzminimum, less is more, etc. En se cantonnant à la période comprise entre mars et décembre 1969, Gargiani et Lampariello offrent ici une généalogie serrée du groupe Superstudio à travers leur iconique projet de Monument Continu. Les deux historiens reviennent sur leurs territoires philosophiques et mystiques, mais aussi sur ce qui rendit énigmatique et si fascinant leur hyper-rationalisme dans une époque de profonde rénovation sociale.

Résumé:
The avant-garde Italian architecture collective Superstudio was founded in 1966 by Adolfo Natalini (1941–2020) and Cristiano Toraldo di Francia (1941–2019), and quickly leaped to the forefront of the 1960s radical architecture movement alongside the likes of Archigram and Haus-Rucker-Co. Through their architectural projects (housing, industrial buildings, banks, interiors), design objects, photocollages, drawings, texts, installations, models, films and exhibitions, Superstudio found brilliant and highly inventive ways in which to inhabit a world transformed by capitalist forces and technological evolutions. This slipcased, 400-page volume explores their oeuvre through the lens of ''migrations'' (migrazioni). Borrowed from Superstudio’s vocabulary, this term serves as a conceptual and poetic key to the group’s architecture and their works in all mediums.
