The aim of the Master is to envisage a professional figure able to fit between public polices and responses from the bottom, capable of facing the speed of the current urban phenomena using new operational tools and to contaminate different kind of knowledge. A figure that stands across arts and architecture, intelligent and conscious in using different languages, eager in exploring territories and inhabit places, ready in inventing new clients, careful in listening and participating in their projects, poetic in transforming spaces and firm in communicating and pursuing consistently its aspirations.

CONTENTS
• City as a fragmented and contested space. The aim aim is to observe critically the mechanisms of production of the city and to offer instruments of intervention and good practices at the national and international level. 
• Arts as tools of knowledge towards the comprehension of the dynamics of transformation of the actual city, as poetic glances able to make visible aspects of the urban whole that are often invisible. The work will be in direct contact with the territory and with international artist visiting the MACRO, MAXXI, MAAM, and with other foreign academies in Rome. 
• Architecture as a first occasion to experiment the collective construction of an artefact in the core of the actual city.Such construction will take place in Rome, Talca and Montevideo, and will be followed by a stage of post-production and exhibition of the work.
