  • Renzo Piano Designs a Reverent Addition to Louis Kahn's Kimbell
    SEEMING INEVITABILITY: renzo piano designs a reverent addition to louis kahn’s kimbell 6 spring INEVITABILITY: Lef: Aerial view from northwest. Above: Piano Pavilion from east, 2014. Photos: Michel Denancé. by ronnie self Louis Kahn’s and Renzo Piano’s buildings for the Kimbell Art Museum in Fort Worth are mature projects realized by septuagenarian architects. They show a certain wis- dom that may come with age. As a practitioner, Louis Kahn is generally considered a late bloomer. His most respected works came relative- ly late in his career, and the Kimbell, which opened a year and a half before his death, is among his very best. Many of Kahn’s insights came through reflection in parallel to practice, and his pursuits to reconcile modern architec- ture with traditions of the past were realized within his own, individual designs. spring 7 Piano (along with Richard Rogers and Gianfranco Franchini) won the competition for the Centre Pompidou in Paris as a young architect piano’s main task was to respond appropriately only in his mid-30s. Piano sees himself as a “builder” and his insights come largely through experience. Aside from the more famboyant Cen- to kahn’s building, which he achieved through tre in the French capital, Piano was entrusted relatively early in his career with highly sensitive projects in such places as Malta, Rhodes, alignments in plan and elevation ... and Pompeii. He made studies for interventions to Palladio’s basilica in Vicenza. More recently he has been called upon to design additions to modern architectural monuments such as Marcel Breuer’s Whitney Mu- seum of American Art in New York and Le Corbusier’s chapel of Notre Dame du Haut in Ronchamp.

  • “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.

  • Top Japanese Architects
    TOP JAPANESE ARCHITECTS CURRENT VIEW OF JAPANESE ARCHITECTURE by Judit Taberna To be able to understand modern Japanese architecture we must put it into its historic context, and be aware of the great changes the country has undergone. Japan is an ancient and traditional society and a modern society at the same time. The explanation for this contradiction lies in the rapid changes resulting from the industrial and urban revolutions which began in Japan in the Meiji period and continued with renewed force in the years after the second world war. At the end of the nineteenth century, during the Meiji period, the isolation of the country which had lasted almost two centuries came abruptly to an end; it was the beginning of a new era for the Japanese who began to open up to the world. They began to study European and American politics and culture. Many Japanese architects traveled to Europe and America, and this led to the trend of European modernism which soon became a significant influence on Japanese architecture. With the Second World War the development in modern Japanese architecture ground to a halt, and it was not until a number of years later that the evolution continued. Maekawa and Sakura, the most well known architects at the time, worked with Le Corbusier and succeeded in combining traditional Japanese styles with modern architecture. However Kenzo Tange, Maekawa's disciple, is thought to have taken the first step in the modern Japanese movement. The Peace Center Memorial Museum at Hiroshima 1956, is where we can best appreciate his work.

  • Ando in the Context of Critical Regionalism
    Concrete Resistance: Ando in the context of critical regionalism Xianghua Wu 48-341: History of Architectural Theory Professor Kai Gutschow 10 May 2006 Critical regionalism was first introduced as an architectural concept in the early 1980s in essays by Alexander Tzonis, Liane Lefaivre and, subsequently, Kenneth Frampton. In his writings, Frampton mentions and celebrates Tadao Ando as a critical regionalist, and uses the approach as a paradigm to discuss Ando’s architecture. 1 Yet despite the label, Ando has neither used the terms “critical regionalism” to talk about his work, nor raised any objection over the label. It is also important to note that Tadao Ando is not mentioned in Frampton’s original article on critical regionalism, “Towards a Critical Regionalism.” 2 Thus, is “critical regionalist” an appropriate term to describe Ando’s architecture? Catherine Slessor posits an alternative label, “concrete regionalist,” to describe Ando’s poetic adaptation of concrete to the local context, thus playing down the “critical” aspect of his approach. 3 Is “concrete regionalist” a more accurate description of Ando’s work? This paper shall demonstrate that while Ando’s architecture does display some characteristics of critical regionalism, he is not strictly “critical regionalist” if we are to follow its definition as described by Tzonis, Liane, and Frampton. This paper will start by providing background on the evolution of critical regionalism, examining arguments of how Ando’s approach is “critical regionalist,” and finally demonstrating the inadequacy of the label by breaking down these arguments. The concept of regionalism is nothing new; Vitruvius discussed regional variations in architecture in his ten books, and the Romantics propounded picturesque regionalism during the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries.

Beginning with the Modernist movement of the early 20th Century, many architects have turned away from reliance on nearby resources and building methods suited to their particular environment and towards the material and technological variety made possible by modern manufacturing and transportation. While the reproduction of buildings of the past would be anachronistic and counter-productive, many older styles, such as Japanese traditional architecture, a focus of this thesis, can offer design techniques to help contemporary buildings refocus on nature and on their specifi c local environment. This project uses these techniques from traditional Japanese architecture to design a contemporary, ecologically-sensitive building in the United States based on unique conditions within the urban landscape and shows that older traditional architecture is relevant to the 21st Century.

On April 23, Defays will present her newest work at Brussels’s TicTac Art Centre in MUTE, an exhibition that highlights her use of costume to explore societal stigmas and oppressions. Featuring haunting cotton masks with FIRST LOOK protruding artificial cheekbones and her provocative Window Dress series—designed like targets, with circular openings at the pelvis, the works denote prostitution and the patriarchy’s narrow gaze on the female figure—MUTE is a layered multisen- sory experience that explores the stifling of self-expression, incorporating recorded shouts and cries as well as text by writer Natalia Dusfraise.
