Totally Lost

“Totally Lost”, a project by Spazi Indecisi on the architectural heritage of European totalitarian regimes, is on view at the Fondation de l'Architecture et de l’Ingenierie in Luxembourg.

Totally Lost
After the exhibition held in 2013 at the ATR bus deposit, an abandoned rationalist building in the center of Forlì, “Totally Lost” – a visual project by Spazi Indecisi with the support of the European project ATRIUM – arrives to Luxembourg to describe through photographs, videos and objects the architectural heritage of totalitarian regimes in Europe and in particular in Romagna.
A visual narration, without judgments or historical prejudices, that investigates architectural spaces as fragments to be reconnected within a network of new meanings to be attributed, prospecting these places like mere containers for and new “democratic” content.

“Totally Lost” is an open and evolving participatory project that consists in a photographic and video research throughout Europe to discover, survey and photograph the abandoned architectural heritage of European totalitarian regimes in the 20th century.

The project has been developed by Spazi Indecisi and implemented under the European Project ATRIUM, European Cultural Route recognized by the Council of Europe since 2014.

“Totally Lost” is not an exhibition, is a process, a journey involving over 200 photographers and videomakers from 11 European countries, which collected nearly 2500 pictures, 60 videos and mapped more than 250 forgotten places. The path and participation become the substance of the project and enable us not to close definitively with the past, but to understand how to bring these places into the future.
