Press release

Il Premio Internazionale Carlo Scarpa per il Giardino, sponsored and organized by the Fondazione Benetton Studi Ricerche, conduce anche quest’anno una campagna di attenzioni su un luogo che contiene patrimoni di memoria e natura di particolare densità e si presenta come significativo per la ricerca scientifica e la sperimentazione di metodi e strumenti per la co­noscenza e il buon governo dei beni culturali.

The jury unanimously decided to dedicate the twenty-fourth edition (2013) of vegetable Skrúður (Skrudur), to Nupur, a botanical garden, with a school and a church, is a site placed on the shore of one of the fjords that cut across the north-western region of Iceland, a few kilometers from the Arctic Circle, that helps us to read the fundamental themes of geography, della storia e della cultura di quel paese.

Perched on a slope facing south-west towards the language of water Dýrafjörður, Skrúður is like a small clump of vegetation, surrounded in the back by solemn curtain of mountains from the hips moved by glacial erosion and downstream from a barren terrain that slopes down to the shore of the fjord. Next, school, a church and a community farm where Nupur opened at the beginning of the twentieth century, a project that in this land and in this place presents itself as a challenge to extreme environmental conditions and pressing instances of social improvement: cultivate the land and take care of a process aimed at knowledge, welfare, education, social elevation. Opened in 1909, The vegetable garden was born out of the hands of the Rev. Sigtryggur Guðlaugsson, a few years before, together with his brother Kristinn, Here he opened a school and an education program aimed at ransom by the agricultural backward, inspired by the ideas of Dane Nikolai Frederik Severin Grundtvig (1783-1872) diffuse anche in Islanda.

The ways in which we build and live in this garden are those usual to the working conditions of particular climatic harshness: draw a perimeter, in this case a rectangle of less than 70 meters in length for about 35 meters wide, tilling the soil and raising a protective fence, educate and convey useful information in this little world, land, water, many different species of vegetables, that beyond this fragile border would be overwhelmed by the forces of nature. The instruments are those of an experiment brave, stubbornly renewing his actions and goes into a hostile world with the force of an educational project that starts from the cultivation, di piante e di giovani contadini.

Skrúður is therefore the dense core around which revolves a set of practical ways and symbolic meanings of the universal dialogue with nature, a place of learning and experimentation in his first forty years (1909-1949) I spent close to the school, thanks to the constant gaze of Sigtryggur Guðlaugsson and his wife Hjaltlina, be-comes a garden. It, After a period of relative neglect in the last decades of the twentieth century, has started a new life and continues, today, to innovate thanks to the care of a group of men and women in more recent years he's taken charge return in a 1996 alle visite e alla coltivazione.
