Atlas carries the celestial sphere. From the end of the 16th century, with Gerardus Mercator and European expansion, his name began to reflect a desire to represent the whole of the known and colonised world. Today’s ecological imperatives force us to reconsider his effort to support the world itself, otherwise doomed to collapse. According to some authors, such as Herodotus, Atlas was not even a titan, but rather the name of a mountain in north-west Africa considered to be the pillar of the sky. Now, while Atlas has already lent his name to Aby Warburg’s Mnemosyne Atlas and to his heuristic methods, the figure of Atlas the bearer, like that of the canephorus nymph, invites us to question the identity and the weight of the burden of those who carry.
Starting with this “figure of support”, the twentieth issue of Studiolo calls for a wide-ranging reflection on the representations of the actions of “supporting”, “carrying” and “taking charge of” and, by translation, on the notions of “supportability”, “sustainability”, “Nachhaltigkeit” in relation not only to images, iconographic and architectural elements but also to questions of materiality, visibility, urban ecology, art market, landscape and sustainable development, from a trans-chronological and transcultural point of view.
