  • “Shall We Compete?”
    5th International Conference on Competitions 2014 Delft “Shall We Compete?” Pedro Guilherme 35 5th International Conference on Competitions 2014 Delft “Shall we compete?” Author Pedro Miguel Hernandez Salvador Guilherme1 CHAIA (Centre for Art History and Artistic Research), Universidade de Évora, Portugal http://uevora.academia.edu/PedroGuilherme (+351) 962556435 [email protected] Abstract Following previous research on competitions from Portuguese architects abroad we propose to show a risomatic string of politic, economic and sociologic events that show why competitions are so much appealing. We will follow Álvaro Siza Vieira and Eduardo Souto de Moura as the former opens the first doors to competitions and the latter follows the master with renewed strength and research vigour. The European convergence provides the opportunity to develop and confirm other architects whose competences and aesthetics are internationally known and recognized. Competitions become an opportunity to other work, different scales and strategies. By 2000, the downfall of the golden initial European years makes competitions not only an opportunity but the only opportunity for young architects. From the early tentative, explorative years of Siza’s firs competitions to the current massive participation of Portuguese architects in foreign competitions there is a long, cumulative effort of competence and visibility that gives international competitions a symbolic, unquestioned value. Keywords International Architectural Competitions, Portugal, Souto de Moura, Siza Vieira, research, decision making Introduction Architects have for long been competing among themselves in competitions. They have done so because they believed competitions are worth it, despite all its negative aspects. There are immense resources allocated in competitions: human labour, time, competences, stamina, expertizes, costs, energy and materials.

  • Serpentine Pavilion 2014, Designed by Smiljan Radić 26 June – 19 October 2014 Serpentine Gallery
    Serpentine Pavilion 2014, designed by Smiljan Radić 26 June – 19 October 2014 Serpentine Gallery Press images at serpentinegalleries.org/about/press-page Smiljan Radić is the fourteenth architect to accept the Serpentine’s invitation to design a temporary Pavilion outside the entrance to the Serpentine Gallery in Kensington Gardens. The commission is one of the most anticipated events in the cultural calendar and has become one of London’s leading summer attractions since launching in 2000. Smiljan Radić’s design follows Sou Fujimoto’s cloud-like structure, which was visited by almost 300,000 people in 2013 and was one of the most visited Pavilions to date. Previous Pavilions have been designed Herzog & de Meuron and Ai Weiwei, 2012; Peter Zumthor, 2011; Jean Nouvel, 2010; Kazuyo Sejima and Ryue Nishizawa, SANAA, 2009; Frank Gehry, 2008; Olafur Eliasson and Kjetil Thorsen, 2007; Rem Koolhaas and Cecil Balmond, with Arup, 2006; Álvaro Siza and Eduardo Souto de Moura with Cecil Balmond, Arup, 2005; MVRDV with Arup, 2004 (un-realised); Oscar Niemeyer, 2003; Toyo Ito and Cecil Balmond - with Arup, 2002; Daniel Libeskind with Arup, 2001; and Zaha Hadid, who designed the inaugural Pavillion in 2000. Occupying a footprint of some 541 square metres on the lawn of the Serpentine Gallery, Radić’s plans depict a semi-translucent, cylindrical structure, resting on large quarry stones. Radić’s Pavilion has its roots in his earlier work, particularly the studio model for The Castle of the Selfish Giant, inspired by the Oscar Wilde story, and the Restaurant Mestizo, part of which is supported by large boulders.

  • Columbia University Graduate School of Architecture, Planning and Preservation
    COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY GRADUATE SCHOOL OF ARCHITECTURE, PLANNING AND PRESERVATION Spring 2019 ARCHA4349 Modernization and the Modern Project Instructor: Kenneth Frampton Teaching Fellows: Alireza Karbasioun (ak3936), Ife Salema Vanable (isv2104) Teaching Assistant: Taylor Zhai Williams (tzw2111) Class Meeting: Wednesday 11:00am-1:00pm, AVH Ware Lounge Building and architecture are cosmogonic arts; that is to say, they involve the creation of artificial worlds to stand against the chaos of nature and the erosive forces of time. In that sense, architecture is a material culture close to the necessities of food production and the practice of medicine. Irrespective of whether we have in mind the idiosyncrasies of vernacular architecture or the embodiment of power, building culture like all culture entails a mediation between innovation and tradition. At the same time, modernization as an ever-accelerating instrumental process continues relentlessly to such an extent that we are on the verge of losing our former capacity to assimilate in cultural terms the volatility of constantly changing conditions. Modern architecture since its inception has been continuously challenged to find modes of spatial, structural and material organization capable of responding adequately to new and often unprecedented circumstances. This lecture course has been devised in order to convey to young architects the way in which the Modern Movement may be perceived retrospectively as a series of wave-like formations which come into being, rise to their maturity and then fall away as they are overtaken by new impulses responding to totally different conditions. As the following brief history of the Modern Movement attempts to demonstrate, one may look at the past as a sequence of discernable impulses that each have had their own life span.

  • Play with Me – the Pritzker Prize As a Game in Ecology
    KAROLINA MAZURKIEWICZ* PLAY WITH ME – THE PRITZKER PRIZE AS A GAME IN ECOLOGY ZAGRAJ ZE MNĄ – NAGRODA PRITZKERA JAKO GRA W EKOLOGIĘ A b s t r a c t The most prestigious architectural prize is the Pritzker Prize. However, competing for it there is an awareness of participation. In recent years, the award has been given to architects who in their work referred to ecology, sustainable development, regional- ism, and natural and cultural values. Has this architectural game explained the prin- ciples and aimed towards highlighting those whose work concerns cooperation with nature rather than negation? Keywords: Pritzker Prize, sustainable development, traditional architecture, modern architecture S treszczenie Najbardziej prestiżową nagrodą architektoniczną jest Nagroda Pritzkera. Jednak konkurując o nią nie ma się świadomości uczestnictwa. W ostatnich latach nagroda przyznawana była architektom, którzy w swojej twórczości odnosili się do ekolo- gii, zrównoważonego rozwoju, regionalizmu i wartości przyrodniczo-kulturowych. Czyżby ta gra architektoniczna klarowała zasady i zmierzała w kierunku wyróżniania tych, których praca dotyczy współpracy z naturą a nie negacji?

  • Serpentine Gallery Pavilion Commission
    José Selgas & Lucía Cano There is no budget for the Serpentine Gallery Pavilion commission. It is paid for by sponsorship, sponsorship help-in-kind, and the sale of the finished structure, which does not cover more than 40% of its cost. The Serpentine Gallery collaborates with a range of companies and individuals whose support makes it possible to realise the Pavilion. Serpentine Gallery Pavilion Commission The Serpentine Gallery Pavilion commission was conceived by Serpentine Gallery Director, Julia Peyton-Jones, in 2000. It is an ongoing programme of temporary structures by internationally acclaimed architects and designers. It is unique worldwide and presents the work of an international architect or design team who, at the time of the Serpentine Gallery's invitation, has not completed a building in England. Each Pavilion is sited on the Gallery’s lawn for three months and the immediacy of the process – a maximum of six months from invitation to completion – provides a peerless model for commissioning architecture. Park Nights, the Gallery’s acclaimed programme of public talks and events, will take place in Sejima and Nishizawa’s (SANAA’s) Pavilion, and will culminate in the annual Marathon event that takes place in October. In 2006 the Park Nights programme included the now legendary 24-hour Serpentine Gallery Interview Marathon, convened by Hans Ulrich Obrist and architect Rem Koolhaas, which was followed, in 2007, by the Serpentine Gallery Experiment Marathon presented by artist Olafur Eliasson and Obrist, which featured experiments performed by leading artists and scientists. In 2008, Obrist led over 60 participants in the Serpentine Gallery Manifesto Marathon.

  • Lord Palumbo 2011 Laureate Eduardo Souto De Moura Ceremony Speech
    Lord Palumbo 2011 Laureate Eduardo Souto de Moura Ceremony Speech Thirty-three years ago, in 1979, in the City of Chicago, Jay and Cindy Pritzker breathed life for the very first time into the Prize that bore their name, and ‘the Pritzker’, as it has been affectionately known ever since, was well and truly on its way. Like a child prodigy, it just couldn’t wait to get going, moving forward in leaps and bounds and vaulting across continents in spectacular fashion like unearthed electric current, to such an extent that it became an article of faith with the family to tether it to a global platform. This was achieved by virtue of the nature of the Prize itself, but also by the masterly decision to alternate the location of these annual Award Ceremonies between the United States as the mother country and selected capital cities overseas. Widespread international recognition generated by this initiative was a major factor in endowing the Prize with the almost mythical status that it has enjoyed until today when that qualifying adverb ‘almost’ finally vanished into the ether as a result of the generosity of the President and First Lady, in attending and participating tonight in the presentation of this most coveted Award. The Prize represents an astonishing record of long term enlightened patronage by the Pritzker family, and in particular by Cindy Pritzker, who has been a tower of strength and a dynamic driving force throughout its history, and who is with us this evening, together with her son Tom (as we have seen) and his wife Margot.

  • Read Tom Pritzker's Ceremony Speech
    Thomas J. Pritzker 2011 Laureate Eduardo Souto de Moura Ceremony Speech The Pritzker Prize was inaugurated in Washington, D.C., at Dumbarton Oaks, back in 1979. While the Prize ceremony has been in dozens of cities around the world, we seem to keep gravitating back to Washington so I have asked myself why. Why Washington? Great architecture serves the people and presents great ideas in a built form. In Washington what we experience is the great idea of democracy, which is embodied in the simplest of phrases: “We the People.” Architecture is the most public of art forms. No other art form serves as many people as architecture. There is hardly a human being on the planet untouched by the designs and the dreams of our architects. Sadly, architecture can also be the handmaiden of less pleasant ideas, as we have seen in the 20th century. In some cases, governments built towering, imposing and often menacing public and governmental structures to overwhelm their citizens. Even these bad ideas leave commentary about the times and the life of the people who lived in those places and in those times. This city demonstrates that there is architecture of the people, an architecture that pulses with democracy. They are about We the People. Here, we see buildings that are welcoming, that nurture the human potential, and that celebrate the human spirit. Indeed, when Washington and Jefferson first laid the plans for our nation’s capitol they went to great lengths to ensure that its designers and architects understood that the capitol had to be imbued with our values.

    The Single-family House of Twentieth Century in Nordic Countries and in Portugal: a condition for the housing quality Beatriz Alcoforado Farinha Freire Brinco Thesis to obtain the Master of Science Degree in Architecture Extended Abstract Supervisor: Prof. Doutor Francisco Manuel Caldeira Pinto Teixeira Bastos Examination Committee Chairperson: Prof. Doutora Maria Alexandra de Lacerda Nave Alegre Supervisor: Prof. Doutor Francisco Manuel Caldeira Pinto Teixeira Bastos Members of the Committee: Prof. Doutora Teresa Frederica Tojal de Valsassina Heitor May 2016 2 The main objective of the current dissertation is to establish a condition for quality in single-family housing during the twentieth century, with reference to the Nordic (Finnish, Danish, Swedish and Norwegian) and Portuguese architects. For the fulfillment of all the goals, the thesis is organized as follows. Besides the introduction and the final conclusion, there are three chapters - "A Basis for Architecture Quality", "The Housing Theme in Recent History" and "The Quality of Housing". The theoretical basis of this study is the oldest definition of architectural quality, the one of Vitruvius, who argued that a work has quality when it is at the same time, solid (Firmitas), useful (Utilitas) and beautiful (Venustas). This investigation searched to understand how these principles have evolved over time and their contributions to the theme of architectural quality in general. The principle of solidity corresponds to the constructive nature of architecture and it is associated with the techniques and materials used in the construction of a building. Throughout history, this principle has suffered major changes, however with Critical Regionalism, won his biggest concern with architectural quality.
