We, at the "Architecture. Restoration. Archaeology" Association (A.R.A) do not wish "do everything possible" in order to save the historic monuments. We do not wish to monitor the state of all historic monuments, nor to protect or restore all these. We do not wish to educate the population of this country regarding the immense benefits generated by a memory cleverly mastered to acknowledge its steps in history.
The A.R.A. Association was established because we, its founding members, believe that the way to the state of ruin of some historic monuments and vanishing of those very natures is the ruin itself, do not have to become signs of our presence in contemporaneity
We, at A.R.A, wish to do a little bit of all that, as much as each one of us and all together can possibly do.
