Description

To know the city of industry is to think about the spaces of science, innovation and knowledge. To look at life in an industrialized society makes us look at the new cities of the dead, their symbols and celebrations. To think about human longevity is also to consider its limits – in which places can we think about destinations? The semi-circular space of the Anatomical Theatre is a place with a relationship with death, when the body is given to science, for the good of knowledge and society. Composed by elements in marble stone, like the great big lavatory with original pedals, or the marble counter itself, it is completed by displays with samples from the pathologic anatomy collection.
