EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "The swimming pool at Cinacitt: the construction of 'Rex' for Fellini's 'Amarcord'" transports us back in time to the golden age of cinema. Taken in 1975 by renowned artist Folco Quilici, it captures a pivotal moment during the creation of Federico Fellini's iconic film. In this image, we are granted a bird's eye view of the grandeur unfolding below. The sprawling swimming pool at Cinacitt stands as a testament to both architectural brilliance and artistic vision. Its hydraulic structure is meticulously designed, showcasing the mastery of Gino Peressutti, an esteemed architect whose work has left an indelible mark on Rome's building styles and movements before 1945. As our gaze wanders across the frame, we witness workers diligently constructing "Rex" a magnificent object that will play a vital role in Fellini's cinematic masterpiece. This instrument or object takes shape under their skilled hands, promising to transport audiences into another world through its presence on screen. The aerial perspective allows us to appreciate not only the intricate details but also how these elements harmoniously blend together within this creative hub. It serves as a reminder that artistry knows no boundaries – transcending time and space while leaving an everlasting impact on those who experience it. Quilici's photograph beautifully encapsulates two significant moments in history: capturing the essence of filmmaking during Fellini's era while paying homage to Peressutti’s contributions to international art throughout the 20th century. As we admire this remarkable print from Alinari, let us be reminded of how architecture intertwines with performing arts - creating spaces where dreams come alive and imagination runs wild.
