The Stadium as a Performative Space
摘要
The Stadium as a Performative Space examines the architectural and cultural significance of stadiums as enduring and transformative spaces within urban environments. The adaptability of stadiums like the Verona Arena and Arles Amphitheatre demonstrates the potential of these structures to meet evolving civic needs. Today, stadiums face challenges tied to single-use design and environmental concerns. However, modern innovations reimagine stadiums as multifunctional urban hubs and renewable energy sources. This chapter advocates stadiums’ versatility, arguing that adaptive reuse can transform them into dynamic assets within contemporary cities, aligning architecture with environmental and social resilience.
