On The investigation Expo
Milan , May 18, 2014 – 9:12
The image of a city humiliated by four rubagalline gives a feeling of nausea. “It’s hard to accept,” says the rector of the State University Luca Vago. You have to start again, but the engine is slow. When discussing a city must listen to it, wrote Alberto Savino. The trouble is that in Milan today, many are tired of arguing. Save the Expo? There is not even to ask. The Expo is to be saved because at stake is the credibility and reliability of Milan and Italy and why people and companies working in the Expo series are the majority. Give up, as they said the premier Renzi and Raffaele Cantone, it would mean that the illegality wins. But there
Milan. “What is there not, a pond polluted by bribes and fixers,” says the designer Giancarlo Iliprandi. A few months ago it was crossed by an unusual euphoria. Let’s fly, declared convinced the leader of Assolombarda Gianfelice Rocca. Those were the days of Bookcity, the invasion in museums, the dynamism of fashion, the week of the cabinet, with the glamor out of the salon. It seems a century has passed.
The wave of mud splashing the Exposure Universal is a tremendous blow. Frigerio, Comrade G, the stagecoach to divide procurement, infrastructure manager and Lombard collusion, have brought down many expectations. “We need courage, heart and creativity to push back the fear and recover from the loss, warns Ermanno Olmi, director and civil awareness event 2015.,” I have confidence in the Expo Hall Beppe and his helmsman, but if not behind us are the feelings you are likely to skid. ”
We must join forces and the will “and do all they can to fend off discouragement and contain the negative implications,” writes economist Marco Vitale. A kind of appeal. Alarm Milan, Italy alarm. As one launched four years ago, “when the city was becoming land occupation of occult parties, or business associations, movements or complicit in all this.” All finished in the viewfinder of the Prosecutor. “I left astonished that this happened in the silence and apathy of the city and its centers thinking universities, business organizations, professional bodies, social clubs and cultural events. The only one who was trying to maintain a high level of civil and moral Milan was Cardinal Tettamanzi, not surprisingly increasingly attacked by wolves … “. In 2010 there arose a Manifesto, the Manifesto of Milan, published by the Courier. In fact, a moral call to arms. “Here and there began to read smoke signals that sent messages of hope and revival,” recalls Vitale. Not always met, but contained a unified message of reaction, rejection of moral degradation and civilized city. Then, “alarm Milan” became “hope Milan.”
You can repeat this call? Vitale is back in action, after the roundup of thieves Expo. And the compass is always this, says Marco Tirelli, the private manager who has set up a conference entitled ‘Good governance and the common good. ” On May 28, at Teatro Dal Verme with the deputy mayor Ada Lucia de Cesaris, will try to sow points of view to share, involving all those who can do something for the city, relying on passion and public administration. On many citizens who in their small are busy and do not surrender to depression. If it has to be invoked again a burst of pride, Claudio Luti, Kartell’s owner and president of Cosmit, the body that organizes the Salone del Mobile, there is. “Never before Milan is in a position to translate projects into action,” he explains. It is in New York, where he led the design week, and throws a squeeze of enthusiasm on the rampant pessimism: “In America, we designed, evaluated, imagined as the best of creativity and life, we are made in Italy that challenge the world and wins. Milan is capable of doing extraordinary things. Prohibited crash. Expo is a call on the fringes, which commits us because it puts a date and opens a window on the world our abilities. We can not fail. ”
You can create a collective moment to revive the spirit of Milan? Luti says that serve examples, concrete things, the culture of doing invoked by the rectors of the universities, for example. “Expo can mobilize our best energies, fashion, design, food, cultural and artistic hospitality. It should bring out the Italian system, Italy that make it mentioned my friend Oscar Farinetti. ” We need to change the playing field soon. Update your calendar. Exit the polluted soil of the misconduct. The rector of the State Gianluca Vago trusts in the reaction of the Milanese. “There is a credibility to defend, and this is the last lap. The State does not hold back. ” Difficult, however, to drive away the hassle and indignation. Nisivoccia Carolina, architect and designer, it is expressed. “We are bitter and resentful Milan for what has happened. Is to say: what a shame. Some friend I am: and you wonder? I knew that ended well, here they steal all … There is a risk to be called off and instead we have to react. I see so many signs from people who are willing to do. But then serve a reply in the administration … “.
The finding that the City has the mandate for now is not a good sign: a garden with flowerbed in Piazza Duomo and the Sforzesco Castle pedestrian souk. Feel like crying thinking about the design of trees Abbado and Renzo Piano, the first approved and then rejected by the junta Moratti. Milan is sometimes plagued by smallness. With the pedestrian area between the truck bar of the Castle has stood the taste, wrote to the Courier Federico Marchetti, Yoox Group manager. How does one in the capital of style, fashion and design, to appear so in the eyes of the world? This is the city of the Expo?
The passion of the individual can fill the voids . “It’s true, we all need to do something: it is a way to give back a small part of much that we have received from Milan,” says Giovanni Bana, lawyer, criminal lawyer of repute. Thinking Expo has invented the week on the European landscape with its Foundation for Research on migration and environmental protection in the wildlife park Arosio. “We leave from that which is good,” says the architect Henry David Bona, a study divided between Milan, Genoa and Paris. Faced with the difficulty to climb the terraces of the Duomo designed a rampant imagining a machine of Leonardo: “It’s like a cable car up to the spiers with a game of levers,” he says. A contribution of ideas. They shall not nothing, but it does not matter. This is also a signal when stimulated everyone is ready to give something, to bring projects and news. The director Andrée Ruth Shammah gets angry for that. “There is an energy in Milan that should be encouraged. And there is a commitment of so many people moving, the effort of many individuals who are trying to put a piece to the degradation that sometimes besieges us. ” She is putting in place an abandoned swimming pool with private funds. But it must still contend with the bureaucracy and the fear that hinders the news. “If the legal problems of the Expo we add up the mess we made of Scale-row.” But you have to get out of the bad trip. “Milan is not this,” she insists.
No surrender. And an appeal to young people. What is the Triennale. There, ten years ago, a group of thirty to forty attempted the crossing in the desert with lots of ideas to change Milan. Attempt failed. “The aggregation of those who work for the common good are often lost because they have nowhere to hide,” says one of the leaders, Caesar Fracca, advertising. Today is a forty-fifty year old who tries to survive the crisis. But it is ready to go and to do its part. In Triennale you can still feel the spirit of Milan. Claudio De Albertis, the president, is ready to open its doors to those who want to make the commitment to serve the city. “Is not it time to give up, but to make square, sending signals to the concrete city and the country.”
Azzone John, Rector of the Polytechnic , avoids the lament and raises. “The international image damage is done, now need something positive to revitalize a city that was taking off in recent times, but without joint projects with many individual initiatives. With our human capital, technological and cultural, it is forbidden to be pessimistic. ” Message in the bottle for a lift: we must react, Expo can not fail. Another time we put everything in Milan.
