  • Cover photo description:
  • The Centrale Montemartini was a thermoelectric power plant in Rome, in the Ostiense district, then decommissioned and used as a museum as a detached section of the Capitoline Museums. The exhibition is characterized by the alternation of images of classical archaeology and images of industrial archaeology, with the machinery of the plant that serves as a background to the sculptures (or vice versa, depending on the observation points inside the room). The looming presence, in the engine room, of the two gigantic and now silent Diesel engines of the plant, each of which is integral to an alternator, all symbols of that century that has seen the advent of most of the most extraordinary technologies of the modern era, is very suggestive.
