  • From 1955-1961, One of the Most Remarkable Community Civic School
    UC Irvine Journal for Learning through the Arts Title Can Architects Help Transform Public Education? What the Sarasota County Civic School Building Program (1955-1960) Teaches Us Permalink https://escholarship.org/uc/item/1479d3wp Journal Journal for Learning through the Arts, 9(1) Author Paley, Nicholas B. Publication Date 2013 DOI 10.21977/D9912643 eScholarship.org Powered by the California Digital Library University of California Can Architects Help Transform Public Education? What the Sarasota County School Building Program (1955-1960) Teaches Us Author: Nicholas Paley Graduate School of Education George Washington University Washington, DC 20052 [email protected] Word Count: 10,270 Abstract: The Sarasota County School Building Program (1955-1960) is revisited through a detailed examination of how architects and educators collaborated to design an innovative group of public schools that provided opportunities for the transformation of learning space. This multi-dimensioned examination is grounded in a historical contextualization of the school building program, in visual and discursive archival analysis related to three of the schools considered especially notable, and in the integration of contemporary voices of some of the teachers, students, and educational employees who worked in these schools. A concluding section discusses four key lessons of this artistic-educational collaboration that might be fruitful for educators to ponder as they seek to create the kinds of community-based learning environments that optimize students’ educational experiences. Introduction From 1955-1960, one of the most remarkable public school building programs in the history of American education took place in Sarasota, Florida. In less than a decade, projects for nine new elementary and secondary schools or additions were commissioned, designed, and constructed --and almost immediately--were being acclaimed as some of the most exciting and varied new schools being built anywhere.

The first construction of Paul Rudolph’s architecture Noelia Cervero Sánchez Received 2018.11.14 Universidad de Zaragoza. [email protected] Accepted 2019.03.05 To cite this article: Cervero Sánchez, Noelia. “Drawing. The first construction of Paul Rudolph’s architecture”. VLC arquitectura Vol. 6, Issue 1 (April 2019): 67-95. ISSN: 2341-3050. https://doi.org/10.4995/vlc.2019.10967 Resumen: El arquitecto americano Paul Rudolph (1918-1997) concede al dibujo un papel central en su proceso creativo, que responde a una concepción altamente emocional de la arquitectura. Durante su formación y sus primeros años de trabajo, adquiere un tipo de representación que le permite transmitir una visión personal del proyecto. Su constante inquietud por la superación del estilo internacional, parte de seis factores determinantes: emplazamiento, condiciones naturales, materiales, función, psicología del espacio y espíritu de la época, que le guían en la búsqueda de respuestas y marcan su obra hasta finales de los años sesenta, cuando alcanza su madurez creativa. Tomando el dibujo como eje de la investigación, se analiza cómo intervienen estos factores en sus proyectos residenciales en Florida, cuya tectónica concibe desde la unidad espacial; en sus proyectos de vivienda colectiva, cuya componente social orienta en agrupaciones modulares urbanas; y en sus proyectos de escala monumental, cuya materialidad imagina y define con precisión. En todos ellos, las decisiones espaciales y constructivas están tan íntimamente relacionadas con su método de representación, que establecen un paralelismo constante entre dibujar y construir.

    A Celebration of Life Henry Adrian “Smokey” Garrett, Jr. April 29, 2021 10:30 am 3201 Windsor Road | Austin tx 78703 | 512.476.3523 | gsaustin.org [ 2 ] The Holy Eucharist Burial of the Dead welcome entrance hymn 361 Amazing Grace About the Liturgy The liturgy for the dead is an Easter liturgy. It finds all its meaning in the resurrection. Because Jesus was raised from the dead, we, too, shall be raised. The liturgy, therefore, is characterized by joy, in the certainty that ‘neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor things present, nor things to come, nor powers, nor height, nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord.’ This joy, however, does not make human grief unchristian. The very love we have for each other in Christ brings deep sorrow when we are parted by death. Jesus himself wept at the grave of his friend. So, while we rejoice that one we love has entered into the nearer presence of our Lord, we sorrow in sympathy with those who mourn. opening anthems 10:00 am [ 3 ] Officiant I am Resurrection and I am Life, says the Lord. Whoever has faith in me shall have life, even though he die. And everyone who has life, and has committed himself to me in faith, shall not die for ever. As for me, I know that my Redeemer lives and that at the last he will stand upon the earth. After my awaking, he will raise me up; and in my body I shall see God.
