Guggenheim and AMO / Rem Koolhaas Announce Research Project Culminating in February 2020 Exhibition Countryside: Future of the World to Examine Radical Changes Transforming the Nonurban Landscape (NEW YORK, NY—November 29, 2017)—The Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, architect and urbanist Rem Koolhaas, and AMO, the think tank of the Office for Metropolitan Architecture (OMA), will collaborate on a project exploring radical changes in the countryside, the vast nonurban areas of Earth. The project extends work underway by AMO / Koolhaas and students at the Harvard Graduate School of Design and will culminate in a rotunda exhibition at the Guggenheim Museum in February 2020. Organized by Guggenheim Curator of Architecture and Digital Initiatives Troy Conrad Therrien, Founding Partner of OMA Rem Koolhaas, and AMO Director Samir Bantal, Countryside: Future of the World (working title) will present speculations about tomorrow through insights into the countryside of today. The exhibition will explore artificial intelligence and automation, the effects of genetic experimentation, political radicalization, mass and micro migration, large-scale territorial management, human-animal ecosystems, subsidies and tax incentives, the impact of the digital on the physical world, and other developments that are altering landscapes across the globe. “The Guggenheim has an appetite for experimentation and a founding belief in the transformative potential of art and architecture,” said Richard Armstrong, Director of the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum and Foundation. -

Six Canonical Projects by Rem Koolhaas
5 Six Canonical Projects by Rem Koolhaas has been part of the international avant-garde since the nineteen-seventies and has been named the Pritzker Rem Koolhaas Architecture Prize for the year 2000. This book, which builds on six canonical projects, traces the discursive practice analyse behind the design methods used by Koolhaas and his office + OMA. It uncovers recurring key themes—such as wall, void, tur montage, trajectory, infrastructure, and shape—that have tek structured this design discourse over the span of Koolhaas’s Essays on the History of Ideas oeuvre. The book moves beyond the six core pieces, as well: It explores how these identified thematic design principles archi manifest in other works by Koolhaas as both practical re- Ingrid Böck applications and further elaborations. In addition to Koolhaas’s individual genius, these textual and material layers are accounted for shaping the very context of his work’s relevance. By comparing the design principles with relevant concepts from the architectural Zeitgeist in which OMA has operated, the study moves beyond its specific subject—Rem Koolhaas—and provides novel insight into the broader history of architectural ideas. Ingrid Böck is a researcher at the Institute of Architectural Theory, Art History and Cultural Studies at the Graz Ingrid Böck University of Technology, Austria. “Despite the prominence and notoriety of Rem Koolhaas … there is not a single piece of scholarly writing coming close to the … length, to the intensity, or to the methodological rigor found in the manuscript -
Uma Arqueologia Do Programa De Rem Koolhaas Adriana Veras Vasconcelos, Doutoranda Pelo MDU-UFPE E Upenn, Professora Assistente Do Depto
Simpósio Temático: Da arte de construir à inteligência arquitetônica Megaestructura e Metrópole: Uma arqueologia do programa de Rem Koolhaas Adriana Veras Vasconcelos, Doutoranda pelo MDU-UFPE e UPenn, Professora Assistente do Depto. de Arquitetura da UFPB Fernando Diniz Moreira, Ph.D., Professor Adjunto do Depto. de Arquitetura e Urbanismo da UFPE 1 Resumo Termos como fragmentação, heterogeneidade, descontinuidade e imaterialidade têm sido constantemente usados para descrever a metrópole contemporânea. A tecnologia da informação e a justaposição de fluxos e realidades parecem enfraquecer uma tradição arquitetônica consolidada, baseada na tríade venustas, commoditas e utilitas. No entanto, estas mesmas características podem também estimular uma nova forma de pensar e fazer arquitetura. Nesse contexto, Rem Koolhaas é um dos arquitetos que mais tem explorado a metrópole como estratégia projetual, expondo a instabilidade da condição urbana atual. Originalmente jornalista e cineasta, Koolhaas publicou Delirious New York, um dos mais importantes manifestos da arquitetura contemporânea. Ele aceita a submissão da arquitetura à aparente falta ordem, fragmentação e heterogeneidade da metrópole contemporânea. Segundo ele, a metrópole é estruturada pela concentração e superposição de vários sistemas urbanos. Sua dinâmica é mantida pela congestão de atividades, espaços e programas que devem ser articulados por bigness: mecanismo arquitetônico capaz de sustentar uma proliferação de eventos em um único edifício. Para Koolhaas, a tarefa da arquitetura não é mais organizar o espaço com elementos permanentes, mas expor o caos da cidade no próprio edifício. O objetivo deste trabalho é oferecer uma arqueologia da obra de Koolhaas, estabelecendo conexões entre o pensamento arquitetônico e urbanístico das décadas de 1960 e 1970 suas idéias e entre estas e seus projetos construídos. -
