XII Edition 2024: open calls
The four calls to participate in the international event dedicated to paper, scheduled in Lucca from 28 July to 29 September 2024, are officially online.
Lubica is a project of 9Muse srl.
LUBICA - Lucca Biennale Cartasia is the largest event in the world dedicated to Paper as an artistic and architectural expression and is held every two years in the city of Lucca, Tuscany. LUBICA was founded in 2004, with the commitment to promote tradition, culture, sustainability and innovation. In 2024 the XII edition is held, celebrating twenty years of activity.
LUBICA aims to create stimuli and methods of comparison for artists who decide to get involved, "educate to beauty", take care of the other but also and above all break the mold and create new points of view.
Registration for the call includes a registration fee of € 30.00.
The theme, as can be seen from the Lucca Biennale Cartasia website (where you can view the complete calls and download the registration forms) is:
Here and Now: Tomorrow.
Everything in the contemporary world is ephemeral, instantaneous: often men seem to act only in the here and now, without consequences, as if there were no tomorrow. Artistic expression is a pair of binoculars focused on tomorrow, on
the infinite possibilities that the human mind has to travel beyond t e boundaries of itself, in search of new possibilities and new worlds to imagine, discover and build. At the same time, knowing how to live in the present, here and now – is a fundamental aspect of our existence. The here and now is the only moment we have to fully exist, grow, feel, love and rejoice. We often forget about it by acting mechanically and repetitively, we live at the mercy of time: linear time, ego time, material life time. The outside world, society, commitments, social media constantly draw our attention, tearing it away from the here and now, postponing to another time, perhaps to tomorrow.

We are continuing the discussions regarding two relatively recent heritage typologies that require greater attention in contemporary times: modern and industrial heritage. The goal is to foster dialogue between modernity and the industrial production that utilized new materials, construction systems, and architectural works that defined this era. These works must be constantly remembered, as they unfortunately suffer from ongoing alterations or even demolition due to a lack of recognition as heritage assets by much of society.

Throughout history, schools and prisons have shared the same spatial principles, as they were built to discipline and direct their inhabitants and users. However, in recent years, new visions have finally begun to emerge regarding how we should teach within an increasingly less hierarchical and pyramidal system, and how spaces intended to foster the creation and exchange of knowledge should be designed. Simultaneously, educational buildings in Colombia have become increasingly regulated, bringing their design to a level of specialization comparable only to hospital architecture.

The "Geographic Information Systems (GIS) Applied to the Territory" course introduces this system, which allows for the capture, storage, analysis, management, and presentation of all types of geographic data by establishing relationships between architecture, territory, and GIS.
