Ex OPG Je so' pazzo
Nápoles · Campania · Italy
Commons and belongingReuse of vacancyCivic labs and participation2015
A former judicial psychiatric hospital in the Materdei district, occupied in March 2015 by students, workers and residents after Italy's criminal asylums were closed. The collective opened a popular medical clinic, a reception space for migrants, a theatre and a workers' cooperative, recognised by the city council as a bene comune. The name, which in Neapolitan means I am mad, reclaims the memory of the building against its past as a site of psychiatric confinement.
