Oniroscopismo-architecture project


Please don't send us any more photos of the facades, as San Damon is responsible for selecting them. We don't know what to do with them. What's more, San Damon's works are only on film, and those you can see on the sites have subsequently been digitized. And to answer a question we've been asked many times in the e-mails we receive, this isn't a competition either. (see below)

 

San Damon and his team are putting together the largest art exhibition on the theme of architecture through its oniroscopism. Covering 150 years of Western architecture, from the Victorian style, to Arts and Crafts, via the three neos: Neo-Romanesque, Neo-Renaissance and Neo-Gothic, as well as Bauhaus, Art Nouveau, Art Deco, Beaux-Arts style, postmodernism, Brutalism, Second Empire style or modernism, etc....

 

Like architecture, this gigantic project will take time to complete. We hope to finish it within two years, and to present it mainly to architects and urban planners around the world, starting with Paris, St. Petersburg and Berlin.

 

Architecture is a field that has always been at the root of our society's capabilities and achievements. The currents, whatever they may be, bring to other builders-visionaries their points of view and details that lead to an understanding of our world through the medium of beauty, or at least through that of creation. San Damon and his team, including artistic director Mr.Valmont and assisted by Mad. Eberhard and Cristina Major-Brown, will be staging a series of selected architectural works spanning the last century and a half in a number of major European countries where architecture has developed strongly as a pure form of creation. We look forward to seeing you soon on this world tour of the marriage between Oniroscopism and architecture.
