NICOSIA-ZAHA-PALMANOVA

PALMANOVA AND NICOSIA HAS NOTHING IN COMMON EXCEPT THE PLAN AND THE ARCHITECT.PALMANOVA HAS BEEN PRESERVED AND HAS REMAINED AS SUCH SINCE THEN BECAUSE THE ITALIAN STATE HAD THE INTELLIGENCE TO IMPLEMENT LAWS OF PRESERVATION,SO IN 1960 IT BECAME A NATIONAL MONUMENT.IF AND ONLY THEN OUR POLITICIANS HAD THE COURAGE TO PRESERVE THE OLD BUILDINGS AND KEEP THE MEDIEVAL LOOK AS IT WAS,WITH ALL THE BYZANTINE BUILDINGS AND SOME NEO-CLASSICAL BUILDINGS,EVEN THE COLONIAL DWELLINGS,THEN I  WOULD STRONGLY AGREE WITH ALL OF THOSE WHO SIGNED AGAINST THE ZAHA HADID'S PROJECT."TRADITION IS NOT PRESERVING THE ASHES BUT KEEPING THE FLAME ALIVE"JEAN JAURES QUOTE.WE LEARN FROM TRADITION AND WE SHOULD PROJECT IT IN THE FUTURE BY MEANS OF A CONTEMPORARY VOCABULARY THAT WILL HELP OTHERS TO COME!

I AGREE THAT THIS PROJECT IS NOT A PRIORITY AND WE SHOULD FIRST IMPROVE THE PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION,CREATE URBAN SPACE,MATURE AS SOCIETY, EDUCATE OURSELVES WITH SUBJECTS OTHER THAN THE SUBJECT WE HAVE STUDIED AND ONLY THEN WE CAN FRAME A SOLID ARGUMENTATION IN ORDER TO REJECT THIS PROJECT OR OTHER.AS FAR IT CONCERNS A.MARANGOU'S REFERENCE TO THE LATE ALEXIS THEODOSIADES I HANE LITTLE ESTEEM ABOUT HIM AS AN ARCHITECT BECAUSE DURING HIS CAREER HE HAS NOT PROVED TO THE ARCHITECT'S 

COMMUNITY THAT HE HAD ANYTHING TO SHOW.THIS COUNTRY IS DOOMED TO ITS MISERY AND MISERY WE SHOW AS FAR IT CONCERNS TOWN PLANNING AND THEREFOR ARCHITECTURE.WE DO NOT DESERVE ANY OF THESE GRAND ARCHITECTS BECAUSE 

SIMPLY WE ARE THE BEST SHIT HOLE ON EARTH.
