Bras. Polít. Int. 57 (2): 9-28 [2014] Introduction José Maria da Silva Paranhos Jr., Baron of Rio Branco, epitomizes Brazilian nationalism.1 Despite the impenetrable personality that motivated Nabuco to call him a “Sphinx,” his political and diplomatic legacy, especially with regard to the demarcation of national borders, is revered as of great importance for the construction of the international identity of Brazil. Although much has been written about the character and his legacy, it seems clear the laudatory character of the vast majority of those narratives. Given the author’s dissatisfaction with this state of affairs and out of respect for the memory of Itamaraty’s patron, I intend to address an issue that lies at the heart of a series of distortions about the meaning of Paranhos Jr.’s diplomacy: the role of naval power in the broader context of the grand strategy implemented during Rio Branco’s administration as chancellor. -
A Implantação Do Mec Na Esplanada Do Castelo: Disputas E Tentativas De Preservação Da Quadra E Entorno Imediato
A IMPLANTAÇÃO DO MEC NA ESPLANADA DO CASTELO: DISPUTAS E TENTATIVAS DE PRESERVAÇÃO DA QUADRA E ENTORNO IMEDIATO. Eixo temático: História e Historiografia da Arquitetura e do Urbanismo Modernos no Brasil Sandra Branco Soares Doutorado em Restauro dei Monumenti na Università degli Studi di Roma/Itália [email protected] Resumo: O objetivo principal deste estudo é apresentar a proposta inicial de consolidação do conjunto do Ministério da Educação e Saúde Pública, conhecido como o prédio do MEC ou Palácio Gustavo Capanema, na Esplanada no Castelo, através dos diversos projetos de ocupação da quadra e de sua própria inscrição no Livro do Tombo do IPHAN. Algumas particularidades resultantes do desenvolvimento do projeto e suas diversas modificações com a obra em curso, assim como seu processo de tombamento que inclui a quadra fronteira "necessária à preservação de sua perspectiva monumental" são imprescindíveis para a compreensão de sua proteção nesses seus mais de 70 anos e tornam-se indispensáveis para fundamentar sua preservação e identificação na cidade. Além disso, torna-se imprescindível analisar a defesa, por parte do IPHAN, para proteção do edifício e da área conforme seu tombamento, diante das diversas tentativas de negociação e das fortes pressões políticas nas últimas décadas que acabaram por interferir na proposta original de proteção do entorno imediato. Palavras-chave: Prédio do MEC, Implantação do MEC, Palácio Capanema. Abstract: The main objective of this study is to present the initial proposal of consolidation of the Ministry of Education and Public Health’s complex, known also as the MEC or Gustavo Capanema Palace, in Esplanada do Castelo, Rio de Janeiro, through the different occupation projects of the court and also throught its own inscription in the IPHAN’s heritage list. -

“The Nude Man's City”: Flávio De Carvalho's Anthropophagic
“The Nude Man’s City”: Flávio de Carvalho’s anthropophagic architecture as cultural criticism* Panu Minkkinen Abstract. Cannibalism is one of the most recognisable taboos of the West and a benchmark with which a supposedly civilised world has traditionally sought to differentiate itself from the radically “other” of the hinterlands. As such, cannibalism has made its way both into the vocabulary of the West’s pseudo-ethnographic self-reflection (e.g. Freud) and the imaginary of its literary culture (e.g. Grimm). A less-well-known strain in this narrative uses cannibalism as a critical postcolonial metaphor. In 1928, the Brazilian poet and agitator Oswald de Andrade published a short text entitled “Anthropophagic Manifesto.” The aim of the manifesto was to distance an emerging Brazilian modernism from the European ideals that the São Paulo bourgeoisie uncritically embraced, and to synthesise more avant-garde ideas with aspects from the cultures of the indigenous Amazonian peoples into a truly national cultural movement. This essay draws on various aspects of the anthropophagic movement and seeks to understand, whether (and how) it influenced Brazilian urban planning and architecture, and especially if it is detectable in the ways in which architects Lúcio Costa and Oscar Niemeyer designed and executed the legal and political institutions in Brasília, the country’s iconic federal capital. The analysis, however, identifies a colonialist inclination in Costa and Niemeyer’s ideological debt to Le Corbusier. Instead, the radical potential of anthropophagic architecture is developed with reference to the less-known São Paulo architect and polymath Flávio de Carvalho whose aesthetic politics provide parallels with contemporary radical politics, as well. -

BUILDING a NEW IDENTITY THROUGH ARCHITECTURE: The
BUILDING A NEW IDENTITY THROUGH ARCHITECTURE: The Case of Colombia And Government Buildings Constructed During The Term of The Liberal Republic (1930-1946) And The Case For Their Preservation Daniella Zamora Cano Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree Master of Science in Historic Preservation Graduate School of Architecture, Planning and Preservation Columbia University May, 2019 ABSTRACT 1930 to 1946 marks a pivotal moment in the history of Colombia, not only as a period of changing political ideol- ogies that defined how the country modernized, but also as a transitional period in the discipline of Colombian architec- ture. The Liberal Republic which began with the election of Enrique Olaya Herrera in 1930, was characterized by great- er transparency in governance and the extension of gov- ernmental services to communities that had formally been underserved. In tandem with this change was a building program that would see many new buildings constructed as outposts of the national government and its services. This building program was executed through a centralized office of construction and design. The architects of these buildings adopted a new formal, stylistic and tectonic paradigm which saw them moving away from classical and neocolonial styles of the past toward architectural forms consistent with the emerging Modern Movement. These two shifts - the one political and gov- ernmental, the other architectural - occur in parallel with one another. While it is difficult to draw direct lines of in- fluence between the politicians who operated in the halls of government and the architects called upon to design the ii structures which housed the institutional programs devised under the liberal government, these trends track along sim- ilar lines. -
Of Glass and Concrete Internal Versus External Space Relations in Oscar Niemeyer's Architecture Ref
Of Glass and Concrete Ref 043 Internal versus External Space Relations in Oscar Niemeyer's Architecture Frederico Holanda Universidade de Brasilia, Departamento de Teoria e Historia, Brasilia, Brazil [email protected] Keywords internal space x external space; Oscar Niemeyer Abstract Oscar Niemeyer’s buildings from the 1940’s to the 1960’s are almost unanimously praised. Some recent projects are very controversial, to say the least. Why so? Relations between internal and external space in Niemeyer’s architecture are examined, by referring to the fundamental syntactic notions of accessibility and visibility – how we can move between inside and outside and how we can see between these instances. In Niemeyer’s works, relations between these domains vary radically along the intervals of closure/openness and opacity/transparency. Attention here thus concentrates in the buildings’ skin. Towards one pole, there are radical examples of transparency and openness in which a simple “shade” – a horizontal slab totally open to the surroundings – is the project’s key element. In other instances, the architect’s preoccupation with integration with nature or with the urban setting around leads him to create a new structural type: a building cut through transversally by a transparency is found in many transformations, from Pampulha (Belo Horizonte, 1940), through his own house (Rio, 1953), to the Itamaraty Palace (Brasilia, 1962). Even when programs demand solemnity, traditionally equated with greater separation between inside and outside, the architect tempers the morphological distance by creatively re-interpreting devices historically employed to do so: surrounding pools and gardens, flyovers, a slightly elevated piano nobile reachable by delicate ramps, an entrance tunnel etc. -

Modern Urbanism and Architecture in Brazil: the Emergence and Growth of New Concepts in the Vargas Era

E- mail: vrezende@ openlink.com.br FERNANDA AZEVEDO RIBEIRO Address: Rua Nossa Senhora das Mercês 116, apt. 401, Fonseca, Niterói, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, CEP 24130-050. E-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT The article discusses the relationship between the emergence and growth of the concepts of modern urbanism and architecture and its achievements under the dictatorial government of Getúlio Vargas (the Vargas Era) in Brazil. The period of his government, which began with the Revolution of 1930 and lasted until 1945, was one of great political and institutional centralization. The goal of building a new nation different from the Old Republic led to broad reforms in various sectors, including public administration and urban planning. From 1937, urban planning in Rio de Janeiro entered a new era due to the adoption of mechanisms such as the City Planning Commission. This and other centralized institutions played an important role in the process of urban transformation, mostly concentrated in the downtown area on newly available posts from the dismantling of hills and landfill resulting from it, along with the opening of a number of new arterial routes, including Presidente Vargas Avenue. The following points are discussed: - The official decisions at the federal level did not favor modern architecture for the construction of public buildings.
