Mercoledì 13 maggio 2015, h 12:36. Elemento inusuale a Venezia, al pari delle biciclette (vedi foto sopra a questa), sono le gru e gli escavatori su cingoli. Dietro al ponte è visibile il Fondaco dei Tedeschi in ristrutturazione su progetto di Rem Koolhaas. Nel mezzo del canale c'è una gondola che, al pari che nelle mie foto "Gondola e cacciatorpediniere", "L'Amerigo Vespucci nel Bacino di San Marco" e "Bacino di San Marco al tramonto dal Ponte della Paglia" qui sopra, mi è servita per completare la composizione. Tuttavia questo tipo di barca, nei miei scatti, quando posso la evito. La gondola la associo a un cliché, piuttosto stucchevole, di Venezia che ha la sua origine in una lettura in chiave romantica di matrice ottocentesca. Tale mito romantico ha dato lo spunto a grandi pittori (Turner, Monet...) letterati (Lord Byron, E.A. Poe, Heny James, D'Annunzio, Thomas Mann...), musicisti (Verdi, Liszt...), registi (Visconti...) per realizzare dei capolavori; tuttavia induce una lettura fuorviante della storia e della "forma urbis" di Venezia. Questa città è stata costruita da grandi mercanti, fino al XVI secolo era uno dei maggiori centri commerciali e finanziari europei e, di conseguenza, sia la tipologia dei suoi edifici (la casa-fondaco) che la morfologia del suo doppio sistema viario (stradale e acquatico) corrispondono a rigorose esigenze razionali. Ecco perché mi fa piacere, di tanto in tanto, vedere e fotografare una bella escavatrice cingolata sulle rive del Canal Grande. #Ponti #Bridges #Monumenti #Canali

hello Roberto, I went to see the link of Martinetti .... no comment! another "mato escaped from the asylum"!
with regard to the gondola you have my support, not for the gondola itself, but for the exploitation of image and lucrale who made the gondoliers .... the real masters of Venice ....
beautiful photo and caption!

I think those of Marinetti were provocations, made especially for the purpose of self-promotion and I do not think that he genuinely intends to demolish the Venetian palaces to fill the channels.
The gondola 'is a modern version of the "gondola de casada" eighteenth century, which in turn is the evolution of a boat fifteenth (at least I got this from the publications Gilberto Penzo), and can certainly be counted them among the traditional Venetian boats, and would have a reason to survive. But when I see them pass for the channels in the evening with an accordion player and one that sings loudly "O sssole miioooo ..." I feel a genuine disgust for the toxic concentration of the most mawkish clichés that foreigners stick to Italy.

Thanks for the lift and for the support with respect to the gondolas ...
Ciauuuuzzz to you too!
Roberto

backgrounds an open door with me! I know how to do to bring the gondola to its charm ... I would start with a tax check the license holders and € 10-11 thousand who say I want to know if they are enough to live in Venice, with the houses given to them for rent a few euro, houses of the town to the top!
then I would go to the mayor came to see why there are more than 450 gondolas around Venice, and finally would check the moorings that night around Venice, blocking many banks thus preventing immediate access to rescue boats ... ..ti enough or continuous? not to mention the taxi drivers ....... wow! wow! wow!
hello Roberto!

I know gondoliers and Motoscafisti are very powerful lobby in Venice ...

Returning to Tommaso Marinetti, I wrote that that more than to be there, we did.
Moreover, among the avant-garde art of the '900, the Futurists (of which he was the leader) I think they were the first to pursue a systematic method to advertise through provocation and scandal (example then followed by many others).
But on one thing Marinetti he got it in full: the gondolas!
He wrote the manifesto that on July 8, 1910, the Futurists hurled from the Clock Tower on the crowd that was returning from Lido gritti.provincia.venezia.it/5E%20area%20di%20progetto/marinetti%20vene :
"We burn the gondolas, rocking chairs for cr ...tini, ... "(I had to put the dots instead of" and "for the system of automatic censorship of insults).

Two minutes before you take the picture that I put here, I got this:




here with a crop scale 250%:




and here 500%




Maybe I'm wrong ... you can not judge people by something like this, and maybe those two that you make the selfie gondola with the infamous stick are a couple ria great scientists (the Curies of our time) and in a few years will receive the Nobel Prize for physics ...
But ... well seen, the definition of "rocking chair for cr ... tini" there is really all!

Hello Mario
Roberto

PS
I saw now that I've caught yourself those who do selfie gondola:
