Every city possesses a unique and valuable identity that is expressed through its physical and visual form. This identity is perceived by its residents and users, shaping their collective memories. The city's identity comprises its physical spaces and the images formed through memory cues, which in turn affect tourism, education, culture, and economic prosperity. Arts and architecture play a significant role in shaping the history of civilizations and fostering the growth of ancient and modern cities. This extends beyond buildings and constructions to encompass traditions, cultural beliefs, and communal arts.
By honoring our traditions and civilizations, which have left behind architectural wonders, we pave the way for future generations to develop and preserve their own identity. Through the discipline of architecture which is as ancient as humanity itself, safety and security, evolved from being a basic need against external threats to sophisticated art forms that express cultural identity and present architectural beauty to the world. IEREK is delighted to announce that this year's conference will take place in the captivating city of Pisa. Situated in the heart of Italy, Pisa provides a remarkable backdrop for our exploration of cities' identities and the transformative power of architecture and arts.
