“Forgiven by Nature” highlights the most significant moments of Pettena’s carrer, who in 1965 founded Radical Architecture in Florence (as well as movements like Archizoom, Superstudio and UFO), expressing a criticism against the normative architecture of that time and opposing a conceptual utopian language, driven by free thought and inspired by nature.
