This first issue of ‘Vesper’ is dedicated to the realities and unreleased imaginaries of the famous lagoon city. Venice is read as a paradigm of contemporaneity, the place where the architecture, arts, and theories have superlative dimensions: very slow, extremely long-lasting, super short, or overexposed.

The journal collects projects, essays, and other views from various directions and perspectives, whether a reflection on the city, its architecture, music and theatre, or on Venice as a literary body in itself.
