What is Ornament? is a big question, which aims to reconfigure the discussion about ornament, particularly focusing on its current appropriation and interpretation. By trying to find possible answers, the exhibition shows the complexity of a multifaceted narrative, which looks into the very essence of ornament. As a matter of fact, it reacts to what seems to be an ongoing fresh, self-confident and joyful return of ornament, intended in its pre-digital sense, beyond its superficial iteration of the early 2000s. Today it seems to be natural to investigate the contemporary form and proportion of a column; to carefully consider the junctions among elements; to question the nature of cladding, as a project rather than as a consequence; to design expressive facades with images and typography; and to dress surfaces with patterns, motifs, textures, materials and colours.As architects, we can decide to concentrate our efforts on the ornamental apparatus in order to maximize results. Whether this process is conscious or unconscious, or simply a reaction to a lack of means, it seems necessary to redefine the current threshold between ornament and decoration; to rethink what we can allow ourselves in our daily practice. How can ornament be reconsidered today as an integral part of architecture? What is its exact position? Where can it exist? What is its impact and its value? Can we still talk about ornament as a quantitative or qualitative option? Can we still imagine the precise positioning of ornament? Composed by a set of six collections, What is Ornament? opens different angles of inquiry, instead of calling for definitive answers, whose aggregating principles transcend history and blur the boundaries among disciplines.
