The Teatro of Bologna as a Transformable Space: Drawing, Geometry and Invention in the Study of the Wooden Model of the Theater by Antonio Galli Bibiena
The teatro of Bologna, designed by Antonio Galli Bibiena, was opened in 1763 in the town of Father Giovanni Maria Martini, a leading musician consulted also by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, and Farinelli, celebrated as one of the greatest singers in the history of opera. Bibiena proposed an innovative solution for the cavea shape, a multiple curved profile with a bell-shaped morphology. The paper describes the architectural features of the theater and its innovation starting from the survey of the wooden model exhibited at the Museo Internazionale della Musica and also the unique wooden mechanism under the parterre stalls that allows to transform and improve the functionality of the space.
