The Palazzo Pubblico in Bologna. Sources for a Government Residence, and its Art and History Museum

Abstract

Civic government headquarters and museum; more than a building, ‘place’, subject of historical research in a variety of fields. The idea of a virtual archive of documents, images and communicative solutions is exposed, aiming at a global understanding of the historically fragmented sedimentation and the articulated complexity of its parts.
