DigDesFab 2011 “Centre Pompidou” Analysis Supporting structures Air Fluids Electricity cables Movement DigDesFab 2011 “Centre Pompidou” Analysis Peter Rice developed the structural concept for the facades, with a system that hinged on six elegantly tapered cast steel rocker beams known as gerberettes. DigDesFab 2011 “Center Pompidou” Analysis The components and connections are of a scale rarely seen in the construction industry- massive steel elements were fabricated in off- site foundries and delivered by truck to the site during the night. DigDesFab 2011 “Centre Pompidou” Analysis One end of each gerberette is connected to an outer tension column, while the other supports a steel lattice beam. The stability of the building is achieved through diagonal bracing in the long facades and by stabilised end frames. The superstructure consists of thirteen bays, six floors high, constructed of 16,000 tons of cast and prefabricated steel with reinforced concrete floor sections. The two main structural support planes comprise a series of 800mm (31.5 inch) diameter spun steel hollow columns, each of which supports six gerberettes, or brackets. DigDesFab 2011 “Centre Pompidou” Analysis The building was envisaged as a cross between 'an information-oriented computerised Times Square and the British Museum' , a democratic place for all people, all ages and all creeds, simultaneously instant and solemn, and the centrepiece of a regenerated quarter of the city. The decision to place structure and services on the exterior was driven primarily by the need for internal flexibility, the scheme provided huge expanses of uninterrupted space on open floors nearly 50 metres deep. DigDesFab 2011 “Centre Pompidou” Analysis External services give scale and detail to the facades, while the celebration of movement and access is provided by lifts and escalators which, like the services, are placed outside the building envelope.

COURSE PRESENTATION AND OUTCOMES This course has three objectives: 1. Students will be able to identify and understand the main art movements in Paris from 1850 to today, including painting, sculpture, photography, installations, and urbanism. We will give consideration to the historical, economic, and sociocultural contexts of the time period into order to develop a history of “modernity” (in the art historical sense) as Paris defined it, as well as its influence on Western taste. Three points will be emphasized: a. The influence of Parisian architecture and urbanism on modernity. b. The place of female artists in modernity. c. The reception of Parisian modernity. 2. By examining the current presentation “Modernités plurielles” at the Centre Pompidou, we will study how Parisian modernity has been interpreted and translated in other parts of the world.

A New Cultural Conter in Paris : LE CENTRE NATIONAL D'ART ET DE CULTURE GEORGES POMPIDOU Plateau Beaubourg 75004 Paris THE GEORGES POMPIDOU NATIONAL CENTER OF ART AND CULTURE The creation of the Georges Pompidou Center is a unique enterprise in Europe . For the first time, cultural activities hitherto presen- ted separately will be reunited under one roof and will offer the visitor a coherent panorama of contemporary creative activity . New develop .m.ents in the arts, Titerature, music, cinema, industrial design, architecture and urbanism will be seen in an international perspective. The realisation of this project was possible only because a single vision animated its instigators . In 1969, Georges Pompidou, then President of France, decided to create a cultural center on the Plateau Beaubourg in Paris, east of the Boulevard Sebastopol (the old central market-place, "les Halles", being on the West) . Its objectives were outlined in the law concerning its creation : "The Georges Pompidou Center of Art and Culture encourages the creation of works of art and of the spirit ; it contributes to the enrichment of the cultural heritage of the Nation, to the information and the education of the public, to the spread of artistic creation and to social communication . It offers advice on request, rarticularly in the architectural realm, to local communities, as well as to any interested public or private orga- nizations associated with it, of a cultural ensemble devoted to all forms of artistic endeavor, especially in the plastic arts, acoustical and musical research, industrial design, the art of the cinema as well as to public readinq".
