圣佩莱格里诺教堂修复及石膏沉积物的装配
下载所需积分: 4
卢卡历史中心的圣佩莱格里诺教堂因其位于圣佩莱格里诺街 “现称为加利·塔西街” 而得名，这是通往卢卡市的最北端路线，属于法兰基吉纳大道 “Via Francigena”。
据信，该教堂建于古老的圣乔治门 “San Giorgio doorway” 处，即通往古罗马堡垒的入口，曾被隐藏在墙内，作为遭遇攻击或围困时的紧急出入口。它通常允许一人通过。17世纪中叶，教堂扩建了宏伟的拱顶大厅，成为当地富裕家庭的朝圣和祈祷中心。1808年，圣佩莱格里诺教堂停止了宗教活动。20世纪时，它成为一个制造和修理城市教堂管风琴的管风琴工作室，后来变成了仓库。教堂处于严重的破败状态，委员会设定的目标是修复外部、屋顶和内部，意在转移托斯卡纳博物馆 “Polo Museale Toscano” 的石膏铸件收藏。该收藏包括230件作品，时间跨度从19世纪中叶到20世纪中叶。该项目还涉及与教堂相连的相邻房间，当时重新打开了一扇古老的门。这是一个低成本的项目，充分尊重历史遗迹，空间已恢复到昔日的辉煌，并在大厅檐口上安装了设备以隐藏任何技术元素，从而创造了人工照明。自然光和人工光真正定义了这个空间。唯一添加的建筑元素是粉末涂层钢板，用于连接门与相邻房间、圣坛缺失的台阶、原本放置圣罗科和诞生祭坛的区域 “现已不在教堂内” 以及前入口区域。白色大理石和巴尔迪利奥地板已被清洁和涂层，以保持上世纪多层磨损的真实外观。相邻房间一楼的前厅将被改造成一个小办公室。
石膏沉积物的布置——考虑到大量的作品——通过两种系统进行结构化：金属管制成的架子和木托盘榻榻米板。这些元素通过使用最重要的雕塑元素并根据其形状和大小适当放置，定义了多样化的空间。教堂大厅被分成多个视觉角落，随着自然光或人工光的变化而变化。建筑装饰材料与如此传统空间的线性结合，营造出一种非常现代的感觉。玻璃入口门将城市空间与内部连接，首个可见元素是带有多种语言涂鸦的前面板。多语言文本是艺术普遍性的视觉隐喻。圣佩莱格里诺教堂的石膏铸件正对着曼西宫国家美术馆 “Palazzo Mansi National Art Gallery”，如今已成为托斯卡纳博物馆区域的重要组成部分。
The Church of San Pellegrino in the historic centre of Lucca takes its name from its location which is on Via San Pellegrino, now called Via Galli Tassi: the northernmost route to the city of Lucca on Via Francigena.
It is believed that it was built at the ancient San Giorgio doorway, that is, the access door to ancient Roman forts, and that it was hidden in the walls and used as an emergency entrance or exit in case of attack or siege. It would have generally allowed the passage of one person at a time. Expanded in the middle of the seventeenth century with the great vaulted hall, it became a pilgrimage and prayer centre for wealthy local families. In 1808 the Church of San Pellegrino was closed for worship. In the twentieth century it was an organ workshop where city church organs were manufactured and repaired, it then became a warehouse. The Church was in an advanced state of neglect, the objective set by the commission was to restore the exterior, the roofs and interiors with the intent of transferring the plaster cast collections from the Polo Museale Toscano. The collection consists of 230 pieces dated from the mid-nineteenth century to the mid-twentieth century. The project also involved the adjacent rooms that were connected to the church when an ancient door was reopened. It's a low cost project with utmost respect for the historical artifact, the space has been restored to its former splendour and artificial lighting has been created with equipment placed on the hall cornice in order to hide any technological elements from view . The natural and artificial light truly defines the space. The only architectural elements that have been added are the powder coated steel slabs placed to connect the door to the adjacent rooms, the missing steps in the presbytery, the areas where the side altars of St. Rocco and the nativity were originally placed (no longer present in the church), and the front entrance area. The white marble and bardiglio floor has been cleaned and coated in order to keep the authentic look of the multiple layers of wear from the last century. The atrium room on the first floor of the adjacent rooms will be turned into a small office.
The setting up of the plaster deposits - and given the large amount of pieces - is structured by means of two systems: shelves made of metal tubes and wooden pallet tatami boards. These elements define multiform spaces by using the most important sculptural elements and adequately placing them according to their shape and size. The church hall is divided into multiple visual glimpses that vary according to the light, whether it be natural or artificial. The material of the architectural finishes combined with the linearity of such a traditional space makes for a very contemporary feel. The glass entrance door connects the urban space to the interior, the first visible element is the frontispiece panel with graffiti in various languages. The multilingual text is a visual metaphor for the universality of art. Being just across from the Palazzo Mansi National Art Gallery, the Plaster casts of the Church of San Pellegrino now form an integral part of the Tuscan museum area.
