利马建筑师 Karina Puente 为她的个人项目创作了一个新系列,把伊塔罗·卡尔维诺1972年小说中的每一个“看不见的”城市展现了出来。她的作品包括混合媒体拼贴画,主要使用墨水绘制在纸上,ArchDaily曾在2016年和2017年发表过。她将一系列想象中的场所汇集了起来,每一张都是书中的一个想象城市。
小说《看不见的城市》中虚构了威尼斯探险家马可波罗和年迈的蒙古可汗忽必烈之间的谈话。该书在构建城市话语和城市形态方面发挥了重要作用。Puente说:“每幅插图都有一个构思过程,其中一些会比其他的花费更多时间。在开始绘图之前,通常我会花三周时间对每个城市进行研究、思考和构思。”最终的绘画和装裱约需一周完成。
Puente的作品将于2019年2月2日开始在墨西哥圣米格尔德阿连德展出。您可以从这访问Puente的官方网站来了解更多有关该项目的信息。

Italo Calvino's 'Invisible Cities', Illustrated
Lima-based architect Karina Puente has a personal project: to illustrate each and every "invisible" city from Italo Calvino's 1972 novel. The book, which imagines imaginary conversations between the (real-life) Venetian explorer Marco Polo and the aged Mongol ruler Kublai Khan has been instrumental in framing approaches to urban discourse and the form of the city.
Italo Calvino's 'Invisible Cities', Illustrated (Again)
Lima-based architect Karina Puente has a personal project: to illustrate each and every "invisible" city from Italo Calvino's 1972 novel. Her initial collection, which ArchDaily published in 2016, traced Cities and Memories. This latest series of mixed media collages, drawn mainly using ink on paper, brings together another sequence of imagined places - each referencing a city imagined in the book.
