Fondazione A.N.M.I.G. - Genova, in collaboration with Associazione Culturale Giano and under the patronage of Regione Liguria and Ordine degli Architetti - Genova, presents the exhibition “Eugenio Fuselli. What Is a House? Architecture of Care and Shelter”: a journey through drawings, documents, sculptures, paintings and photographs aimed at discovering the characteristics of one of the masterpieces of Rationalist architecture in Liguria, Casa del Mutilato in Genoa. Built between 1937 and 1938, the building — originally created to provide a place of assistance and reintegration for disabled veterans of the First World War — paradoxically stands facing the new conflict that would devastate Europe as early as the following year, with Nazi Germany’s invasion of Poland.
Designed to provide a welcoming environment, the building therefore also contains spaces intended for practical medical assistance to victims of armed conflicts, as well as areas designed to offer protection in the event of future military attacks.
