PUAY-PENG HO Director, School of Architecture The School of Architecture at the Chinese University of Hong Kong is very excited to be able to co-present the exhibition and sym- posium BUILDING CULTURE as part of the celebration programmes for the 20th anniversary of the founding of the School. The School stands at the confluence of ideas and practices in built environ- ment design, of the present and in future, in China and the world. In the past twenty years, the School has created a research and teaching ethos that valued excellence and innovation, and em- phasizing on its contribution to the community. The mission of the School of Architecture is to advance knowledge and prepare students for the increasingly complex world. As such, this exhibi- tion and symposium fit perfectly into the ethos and mission of the School. The best of innovative architecture designs from the new generation of Spanish architects are featured in this exciting ex- hibition which will allow both our students and the wider profes- sional public an understanding and appreciation of the achieve- ments of these Spanish architects. In addition, the community in Hong Kong can also have the opportunity to be exposed to best creative approaches in the design of the living environment and a chance to reflect on the best practices in the world. At the School, we focus our research and teaching in the areas of sustainability design, urban studies and design and architectural conservation. I am pleased that the symposium will address issues in these same areas that require much research and innovation. With the dialogue between both Spanish designers and their coun- terpart from Hong Kong, I am sure the symposium will provide the necessary platform for the advancement of knowledge in these fields and also addressing the particular context in the Pearl River Delta. Above all, I wish the symposium and exhibition will create a desire to deepen the collaborations and exchanges between Spain and Hong Kong. MR. JUAN MANUEL LOPEZ NADAL Consul General of Spain I feel especially honoured to introduce BUILDING CULTURE, a multi- faceted event that will include the exhibition “Architecture with- out Paper”, the International Conference of Architecture “Hong Kong/Spain – Water and Culture”, and the Student Workshop on “New Market and Waterfront Communities.” The Spanish Consulate-General in Hong Kong is proud to organize this event together with the International Conference on Architec- ture (ICOA), and with the School of Architecture of the Chinese University of Hong Kong, which celebrates in this year 2011 its 20th Anniversary. Today, Hong Kong is at the forefront of technological innovation and architectural creative design in China and in Asia; Spain is privileged to have both a long tradition in architecture, and a young and dynamic generation of architects that has been ac- knowledged by their vibrant originality throughout the world. The exhibition, the conference and the workshop are therefore a unique opportunity for Spanish and Hong Kong architects and de- signers to exchange their views and experiences in the dynamic context of today’s world, when we all experience the need to re- view our traditional patterns and ideas in order to build modern and sustainable community environments. I am convinced that this special event will be not only useful for professional architects, designers, academicians and students, professionals, but also en- joyable for all our friends in Hong Kong. Finally, I want to thank the Spanish Agency for International De- velopment Cooperation, the Chinese University of Hong Kong, the curators and all our sponsors for their generous support. 6 7 OVERVIEW PROF. MARISA YIU Organizer and co-convener of BUILDING CULTURE: Hong Kong -Spain, Water & Culture Symposium, CUHK BUILDING CULTURE is an inaugural collaboration between the School of Architecture at the Chinese University that bridges and exchanges, with various institutions and partners in Hong Kong and abroad. The hope is to further elaborate on the building of culture and the culture of the building profession. This year ICOA- International Conference of Architecture organized by Ana Hildago, María González and Silvia Villanueva has developed an exciting platform to share and introduce Spanish practices, designers, architects, curators and planners to a Hong Kong audience. The symposium gathers key members and representatives of current developments in Hong Kong to showcase the latest projects, amongst case studies and projects developed by Spanish designers and academics. Hong Kong’s vibrancy of culture and future developments are constantly influx, and this meeting offers a space for productive sharing, learning and reinterpretation amongst professionals, academics and students. Cities in Spain such as Barcelona, Bilbao and Valencia have undergone major evolution based on infrastructural changes on their sea and waterfronts
