OPENED IN 1923, THE
BUILDING COMMEMORATES THE FAMOUS WORK OF DANTE ALIGHIERI. IN ITS
ROUTE, ARCHITECTURE, LITERATURE AND MYSTICISM COMBINE UNTIL
ELEVATE THE SOUL BEYOND THE ROOFS OF BUENOS AIRES.
ENTER
HORNS AND SMOG, IN THE MOST TRADITIONAL AVENUE OF BUENOS
AIRES, A LAY TEMPLE IS HIDDEN FROM VIEW: A PLACE WHERE
TIME STANDS STILL AND SPACE IS CONFUSED, DESPITE THE PERFECT
GEOMETRY. IS THAT THERE, IN THE BAROLO PALACE, THE PAST IS
MEDDLES IN THE PRESENT, AS CRASS REALITY VANISHES INTO
A PARALLEL, POETIC AND SACRED UNIVERSE.
THE
BUILDING, BUILT UNDER THE SOUTHERN CROSS, DAZZLES WITH ITS ELEGANT
STYLE, A MIXTURE OF GOTHIC-ROMANTIC AND HINDU, ALTHOUGH WHAT
SPELL IS ITS HISTORY. WHEN PASSING THE GLAZED ENTRY, THE
DIVINE COMEDY ,
BY DANTE ALIGHIERI, MATERIALIZES IN CONCRETE, MARBLE AND BRONZE,
AND IN ONE HOUR IT IS POSSIBLE TO GO THROUGH HELL, PURGATORY AND
PARADISE, GUIDE THROUGH.
CREATED
WITH THE DREAM OF SAVING THE REMAINS OF THE FLORENTINE ARTIST, TODAY IN
PROPERTY THERE ARE ONLY OFFICES, BUT EACH DETAIL AND RELIEF KEEPS ITS
SYMBOLIC CORRELATION TO THE POEM .
THE ARCHITECT, A MEMBER OF THE MASONIC ORDER OF DANTE AND BAROLO,
OBSESSIVELY REITERATED THE NUMERICAL DISTRIBUTION OF THE BOOK: NOT ONLY
THE DIVISION OF THE FLOORS AGREES WITH THE THREE KINGDOMS; ALSO,
BETWEEN THE “COINCIDENCES”, ITS HEIGHT REPLICATES THE AMOUNT OF
SONGS OF THE TEXT AND EVEN ITS LOCATION, AV. DE MAYO 1370, RECALLS THE
APPROXIMATE DATE OF THE WRITING.
TRIBUTE
OCCULT OR MYSTIC FANATICISM, THE TRUTH IS THAT THE PALACE INVITES
A REDEMPTIVE JOURNEY TO ANOTHER HEAVEN. AS THE COUNTRY'S FIRST SKYSCRAPER,
THE PORTEÑO ANGELS AND DEMONS ARE STILL VISIBLE FROM ITS DOME.
