Fountains



Restarts the project "Fountains" began in 2009 with friends Carlo Giordani and Ezio Martinazzi , this is an audio recording work (primarily), videos and photographs, the most interesting fountains Camonica Valley.

Each fountain "sings" in fact so different from the others, each has its own unique voice that somehow we would like to document and preserve it from oblivion.

We invite all friends of the "Valley" fountains interesting to report, excluding those that are architectural or too recent, as they also invite you to tell stories, anecdotes or anything that affects them.

This is a job for which it is difficult to set a time but once achieved, we would like that result in the publication of the material more interesting.

report some notes of the project.

A fountain is a device from which you can draw water, where it is not located at a source the water reaches the fountain by a water system. Were very important and widely used in residential areas before running water was available in individual homes, but now gradually vanished, like public washrooms, seats equipped with tanks where you could bear to do laundry. addition to using as a point of access to water, the fountains are used as an architectural element and urban ornamental and artistic, too type of monumental examples are decorated with fountains statues or illegiadrite and made the most spectacular and scenic with imaginative water features.

Fountains us interest are those civilians, those who, like the headlights, for example, are endangered; obsolete for the purpose that generated them. Is no longer being built almost fountains of use, many are suppressed, other and let go to ruin in the future if it is true that we will even water wars, probably fountains will be closed or demolished, some are no longer with the free-running water and constant access. The public fountain in the name already contains the nature of sharing, common good, which is the opposite of privatization, ownership, possession and profit, selfishness. Life itself, survival strategies and requirements in common practices, compel us to unite as humanity, to share, as if that were the natural flow of things and all forms of exclusivity and closure go against the grain.
