The image is part of a series of graphic elaborations inspired by figurative themes of contemporary suburbs, the subject of the essay ‘I luoghi del segno epocale’ (“XY dimensioni del disegno” 29-30-31) in which Roberto de Rubertis proposes to the architectural debate and interdisciplinary reflection the question of ‘suburbs’ understood as a “distillate of singular inventions” to be transformed into widespread quality with “courage, modesty, enthusiasm and love”.
