Shadows , Ben Youssef Medersa by S . Batcheler 2012 FOREWORD Welcome to the inaugural Jørn Utzon Research Network (JURN) Spring Workshop and the Third International Utzon Symposium; a tri-partite collaboration between the Utzon Research Center (Aalborg Denmark), l’Ecole Nationale d’Architecture of Rabat, Morocco and JURN. Jørn Utzon, the architect of the world renowned Sydney Opera House, is considered to be of unique international significance as an exemplar of a tectonic and humane modern architecture that is grounded in place, culture, community and that is, in the fullest sense of the term, sustainable. His particular design methodology holds significant potential to inform contemporary theory and practice. The aim of JURN is to instigate and develop a network of corresponding scholars, practitioners and students in diverse geographical locations that either Utzon drew inspiration from, or made projects in. The objective is to develop a range of research questions that will inform and underpin future research projects relating to Utzon’s archive and oeuvre. Utzon designed projects across the international stage; Denmark, Australia, Sweden, Finland, Norway, Morocco, Kuwait, Spain and the UK, provided locations through which his paradigm developed. These diverse locations are represented within the ambitions and structure of JURN. The Third International Symposium will provide a forum for discussion of Utzon’s paradigm led by academics and practitioners providing a diverse perspective of the oeuvre. The inaugural JURN Workshop will provide participants with the opportunity to test Utzon’s approach to making place within the rich and complex cultural and physical context of Morocco, from which Utzon drew significant inspiration. The outputs from each event will be published as a contribution to the understanding of Utzon’s work and the potential held by such understanding of potential influence upon contemporary architectural discourse. Adrian Carter Roger Tyrrell Co-Director Jørn Utzon Co-Director Jørn Utzon Research Network Research Network Central Pool , Ben Youssef Medersa by A. Carter 2012 INTRODUCTION This ‘Reader’ is designed to inform and provide a sense of expectation and anticipation for those attending the Inaugural JURN Workshop and the Third Utzon Symposium held in Morocco in April 2012. Within, are tastes of what is to come; a series of abstracts of Symposium contributions focused upon the theme of ‘Dwelling, Landscape, Place and Making’. These texts will be interspersed with readings of Morocco by others; writers, artists, photographers. The material combines to provide an insight of another world that inspired Utzon and resonated strongly within his work. The Reader represents a ‘drawing’ from and of Morocco, in the sense (as Richard Leplastrier describes) of drawing from a well or indeed any other source. In many ways Morocco still represents a source of all that sits at the core of Architecture. After the event, the Reader will be developed further using transcripts of Symposium contributions and process and outputs from the Workshop participants. This will provide not only a coherent record of the events, but also exemplars of architectural responses to that unique source. LANDSCAPE Ait Benhaddou : A Carter : 2011 THRILLS, VIEWS AND SHELTER: LANDSCAPE AESTHETICS IN UTZON’S ARCHITECTURE John Roberts University of Newcastle NSW Consider, if possible, three of Jørn Utzon’s buildings: the monumental Sydney Opera House, and his two Majorca houses, Can Lis and the later Can Feliz. Richard Weston calls the 1971 Can Lis house ‘one of the finest houses built in the twentieth century’, while observing in the ‘breathtaking’ 1992 Can Feliz house a ‘unique, almost religious, intensity’. The considerable repute of the Sydney Opera House is well established. An investigation of a few aspects of these buildings might help explain something of their high renown. In his 2003 Pritzker Laureate essay on Jørn Utzon, Kenneth Frampton observes the ‘irreducible grounding’ of Utzon’s architecture ‘in the opposition of earthwork versus roofwork’, and cites Aldo van Eyck’s interest in ‘the unchanging condition of man’. Thus we can infer in Utzon’s work central questions of human accommodation, involving a triad of humankind, earth and sky. This ‘grounding’ might be a question of landscape as much as architecture, of negotiating ‘the ground plane of everyday life’, as Brit Andresen puts it in her 2003 essay ‘Ancient Gathering Forms’; it may also be part of a universal human problem, of shelter, survival, and symbolism or significance, faced by many cultures across many millennia. Frampton observes that Utzon ‘would challenge the assumed superiority of Eurocentric culture’; it could also be said, complementarily, that aspects of Utzon’s work challenge an assumed superiority of culture over nature, at least in architecture. This paper investigates aspects of Utzon’s buildings in Sydney and Majorca, and considers the significance of landscape-symbolic elements in his work. In The Experience of Landscape (1975) geographer Jay Appleton proposed his ‘prospect-refuge theory’ as a part answer to his own question, ‘what is it that we like about landscape, and why do we like it?’ Prospect-refuge theory has a diverse parentage, including geography, landscape painting, art history, literature, landscape architecture, landscape aesthetics, evolutionary biology and evolutionary psychology. Prospect-refuge theory has been acknowledged and used in architecture to consider architectural aesthetics in landscape terms, in particular Grant Hildebrand, in The Wright Space (1991) used prospect-refuge theory to comment on the aesthetic appeal of Frank Lloyd Wright’s houses. Wright’s enduring popular appeal is partly due, Hildebrand argues, to architectural elements symbolizing landscape features which once had survival value for archaic Homo sapiens: our ancestors made decisions, when choosing places to camp or raise families, and while hunting (and being hunted), which influenced where they lived, whether they ate, and how they survived against ‘hostile conspecifics’. Hildebrand uses Appleton’s theories to argue that the basis of architectural appeal in landscape is emotional, instinctual, heritable, and ultimately biological: the survival- related responses of early human ancestors to natural environments underpin how contemporary architectural elements can be perceived and evaluated as landscape South of the Atlas Mountains : A Carter: 2011 elements – good, beautiful, and beneficial, or menacing, frightening and dangerous. Early in his life Utzon, a hunter like his mentor Alvar Aalto, observed landform and vegetation, and the effects of winds, clouds and light on animals and people. These landscape insights guided Utzon’s creative decisions throughout his life, framing a larger sense of how fellow humans might respond to his architecture – itself formed of elements gathered across cultures and times. Appleton’s thinking on landscape aesthetics offers concepts and terms to open a landscape-based discussion as to why people like Utzon’s architecture. Appleton’s thinking includes his prospect-refuge theory – balancing (real and apparent) security and enclosure with (real and apparent) views and access – and his broader ‘habitat theory’ of aesthetics of site and setting. Appleton also proposed ‘hazard symbolism’, the thrilling sensation of being close to, but safe from, physical danger – cliffs and cliff edges, wild water or weather, animate danger, exposure to heat or cold – which people enjoy in both natural and built conditions, including exposed open spaces, steep walls, and high ledges and platforms. Appleton wrote in The Experience of Landscape: ‘Exposure to the hazard is matched by perception of the hazard and followed by refuge from it’, indicating the mix of action, perception and reaction to landscape implicit in his theoretical formations. Utzon’s Sydney Opera House seems to exhibit strong and significant quantities of hazard symbolism in its open outdoor terraces, its steep, shining roofs, and its precipitous artificial headland. By contrast, his Majorca houses, on their separate sites, balance symbolism of prospect – elevated platforms, terraces, viewing windows, and finely tuned relationships with ground, horizon and sky – with that

Si uno vuelve la vista atrás, a esos inicios cuando miraba con devoción las imágenes de Can Lis, y no había más para empezar que esas fotos, el tan publicado plano habitual y las propias reflexiones, y recorre con la mirada el camino hasta hoy, es cuando ve todo lo que se ha avanzado, y se da cuenta de lo mucho que le debe a todas esas personas que han hecho posible este camino tan largo. Con tan escasa semilla inicial, el proceso ha sido lento, pero el árbol ya ha crecido y es fuerte. Los frutos se han ido desgranado lentamente; ahora son maduros y plenos. El proceso fue tan lento, y yo pensaba que había tiempo; Jørn Utzon se me murió en el camino y esa es mi pena y es el destino. Por dos veces programé, inconsistentemente, ir a visitarle y hasta me compré una vieja grabadora para poderle registrar; ahí sigue la grabadora, cerca de mi mesa de trabajo.

  • The Utzon Paradigm
    THE UTZON PARADIGM Roger Tyrrell Co-Director of the Jørn Utzon Research Network (JURN) and Adrian Carter Co- Director of the Jørn Utzon Research Network (JURN), Director of the Utzon Research Center, Aalborg University. RE-CONSIDERING UTZON “Comparable in subtle ways to the protean achievements of Le Corbusier, Utzon’s architecture emerges today as paradigmatic at many levels not least of which is the manner in which, from the beginning of his career, he would challenge the assumed superiority of Eurocentric culture.” (Frampton. K. 2003 p 6) This Paper strives to address three objectives. The first is to discuss the Utzon’s oeuvre from a paradigmatic perspective, the second to layer that paradigm within two distinct but interconnected frameworks. The third objective is to explore the fusion of this dichotomous paradigm through the concept of ‘poetic conjunction’. Jørn Utzon (1918-2008) is now internationally recognised as one of the most original, innovative and socially concerned of modern architects, perhaps the last great exponent of the humanistic Nordic tradition within modern architecture. He is the architect of what is still widely considered the most noble and humane housing built in Denmark, a simple, yet poetic modern church at Bagsværd and the most iconic and popular building of the 20th Century, his great unfinished masterpiece, the Sydney Opera House. (Fig 1) The Opera House has become the symbol of not just Sydney, but also Australia; that owes it origins to the maritime environment of Aalborg, where Jørn Utzon spent his youth, and the inspiration of his father Aage Utzon, an esteemed yacht designer.

  • Utzon's Beautiful Ideas: an Antidote to “The Australian Ugliness”?
    FOURTH INTERNATIONAL UTZON SYMPOSIUM – SYDNEY AUSTRALIA WHAT WOULD UTZON DO NOW? Utzon’s Beautiful Ideas: An Antidote to “The Australian Ugliness”? Adrian Carter Utzon Research Center, Department of Architecture, Design and Media Technology, Aalborg University There is no doubting that with the realisation of the As Gadamer notes, Alexander Gottlieb Baumgarten Sydney Opera House, Jørn Utzon created what is both (1714-1762), the German philosopher from whom we popularly and critically acclaimed to be one of the most have the origins of our contemporary understanding of beautiful works of architecture not only of its own era a sense of beauty, defined aesthetics as the art of and location, but that transcends time and place to thinking beautifully (Gadamer p.17). It was Hegel who achieve universal appreciation. What is the beautiful went further than Baugarten in the philosophical though? What was Utzon’s understanding of the consideration of the significance of the shared beautiful and where did the beautiful come from in his experience of the beautiful, and as Gadamer expresses work, not only at the monumental scale of the Sydney it determined that” the kind of truth that we encounter in Opera House, but also within his approach to domestic the experience of the beautiful does unambiguously make a architecture to which he was equally dedicated and claim to more than merely subjective validity” (Gadamer, adept; and how could his work, particularly his housing p.18) provide beautiful models for now and the future. Juhani Pallasmaa goes further and cites the Russian As Richard Leplastrier talking of his time with Utzon Nobel prize winning poet Joseph Brodsky’s belief that recounts, “Quite often in the office he would say something “the purpose of evolution is beauty” as underpinning his like “ah, that is such a beautiful idea” (Botin, Carter and own understanding and writings on architecture.

  • The Role of Jørn Utzon's 1958 Study Trip to China in His Architectural Maturity
    $UFKLWHFWXUDO Chiu, C-Y 2016 China Receives Utzon: The Role of Jørn Utzon’s 1958 Study Trip to China in His Architectural Maturity. Architectural Histories, 4(1): 12, +LVWRULHV pp. 1–25, DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.5334/ah.182 RESEARCH ARTICLE China Receives Utzon: The Role of Jørn Utzon’s 1958 Study Trip to China in His Architectural Maturity Chen-Yu Chiu Both before and after his study trip to China in 1958, Danish architect Jørn Utzon (1918–2008) consistently cited dynastic Chinese architecture as one of his essential design ideals. This article commences with a reconstruction, using archival and anecdotal evidence, of Jørn Utzon’s 1958 study trip to China with his close friend, the noted Norwegian architect Geir Grung (1926–89). The investigation seeks to explain both why, as a student, Utzon was so interested in the civilisation of China and how his carefully planned journey yielded Utzon both an intuitive grasp of ideas of Chinese architecture, and, most importantly, a continuing interest in China’s traditional systems of building construction. The answers could add to a methodological and theoretical framework for understanding Utzon’s work. Introduction This article then establishes built-form analogies Both before and after his study trip to China in 1958, the between Utzon’s 1958 study of Chinese architecture in situ Danish architect Jørn Utzon (1918–2008) consistently and his design proposals over the three decades following cited dynastic Chinese architecture as one of his essential the trip, with a view to retracing the path of Utzon’s grow- design ideas and ideals (Faber and Utzon, 1947; Utzon ing understanding of Chinese architecture during this 1962; 1970).

  • The Role of Alvar Aalto in Developing the Maturity of Jørn Utzon's Work
    Alvar Aalto Researchers’ Network Seminar – Why Aalto? 9-10 June 2017, Jyväskylä, Finland Aalto through young Utzon’s eyes: The role of Alvar Aalto in developing the maturity of Jørn Utzon’s work Chiu Chen-Yu Assistant Professor Department of Architecture, Bilkent University +90 5316 146 326 +90 312 290 2590 [email protected] FF 206, Department of Architecture Bilkent University, 06800 Ankara, TURKEY Aalto through young Utzon’s eyes: The role of Alvar Aalto in developing the maturity of Jørn Utzon’s work CHIU Chen-Yu, Bilkent University Helyaneh Aboutalebi Tabrizi, Bilkent University Introduction There is no doubt that the work of Alvar Aalto (1898-1976) played an important role in the maturity of architectural design of Jørn Utzon (1918-2008). Despite Utzon openly and repeatedly admitted his learning from Aalto, what was the interrelationship between these two master architects, what was Utzon’s perception of Aalto’s work and how Utzon interpreted the ideas and ideals received from Aalto’s work, are all unknown and unheard. By surveying the architectural collection both of Aalto and Utzon, this article reconstructs their communications in-between and reviews Utzon’s study on Aalto’s work through his own photography images and book collection, as well as building excursions. In addition, it constructs a series of analytical comparisons between the studied work of Aalto and Utzon’s architectural creation. The found analogies in-between are served as the rationale for arguing Utzon’s learning from Aalto. However, Utzon did not simply imitate the manners of Aalto, and Utzon seemed to interpret the received concepts from Aalto with his own beliefs and interests, as well as with other influences.

Jorn Utzon (1918-2008), architecte danois, est l’auteur de l’emblématique Opéra de Syd- ney (1956), monument inscrit depuis 2007 au patrimoine mondial de l’UNESCO. Grand voyageur, Utzon découvre la diversité de l’architecture des lieux qu’il visite dans les différents continents ; elle sera source d’inspiration dans le processus d’élaboration de ses projets. Utzon construit essentiellement en Scandinavie mais aussi au Moyen-Orient. La démarche architecturale, originale et novatrice, accorde une place privilégiée à la no- tion de nature et de bien-être. Prolongement des traditions constructives, modulation, fluidité des espaces intérieurs, conception libre, basée sur les modèles de la croissance dans la nature, sont des guides qui lui permettent de concrétiser des projets architecturaux au savoir-faire technique exceptionnel.

During the last two decades, these states invited an overwhelming num- ber of western architects to participate in development projects. The work of these architects appears to involve a multitude of interpretations. At one end is the architect's own theoretical position and autonomous architectural discourse, while at the other end is the cultural and ideological circumstances by which the architect's work and ideas are received and understood. This study is focused on two institutional buildings de- signed by two western architects: the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Riyadh by Henning Larsen, and the National Assembly in Kuwait by Jorn Utzon.
