A Visual History of Italian Clubs

Through the photographs of Giovanna Silva, a selection of interviews and a collection of critical texts, Nightswimming takes you into the fascinating world of the night displaying discotheques in Italy from the 1960s until now.

The history of dance clubs is an anthropological and architectural phenomenon, that is why what we created for this project is an interactive display of discotheques, told in a subjective, partial way, but always with a clear purpose in mind: the analysis of space.
