Product Description
Arquitectura Viva 209 Groundscapes I Bajo tierra
In Short. The ICO Museum showcases, for the first time in Spain, the complete oeuvre of Francis Kéré; Nicholas Grimshaw receives the RIBA Gold Medal; the firm Nieto & Sobejano opens the Arvo Pärt Center in Laulasmaa (Estonia); Alejandro Zaera raises the FCAYC base in Cerezales (León); Vaillo +Irigaray complete a pharmaceutical factory in the Baztán Valley; Norman Foster’s Bloomberg headquarters in London wins the Stirling Prize; Barclay & Crousse’s Edificio E at the University of Piura (Peru) lands the Mies Crown Hall Americas Prize; Paul Andreu, Paul Virilio, and Eduardo Arroyo pass away; and Proarh builds the Issa Megaron House in Croatia.
Subterranean Poetry. Along with the hut, the cave is the most primordial archetype of architecture. One is built, the other is dug; the first tends to be light, the second clings to gravity; the former is raised by joining pieces, whereas the latter is shaped with the earth that it emerges from. These are parallelisms that Dominique Perrault and Frédéric Migayrou complement in an article that advocates giving a future to buried architecture, after which comes detailed feature of five buildings poetically excavated in the landscape: the Tirpitz Bunker Museum (Denmark) by BIG, inserted into a World War ii fortification; the Museum Fort Vechten (Netherlands), a military infrastructure which Anne Holtrop has completed with an underground museum; the Cava Arcari (Vicenza), a labyrinthine quarry fitted out by David Chipperfield; House SRMS & A (Bolzano), embedded by Werner Tscholl into a rocky wall in the Alps; and the House-Restaurant crypt by Junya Ishigami in Yamaguchi (Japan).
Postmodern and Vernacular. The professor and editor Jorge Sainz evokes Robert Venturi, the great leader of architectural theory during the second half of the 20th century, who died in September; and Luis Fernández-Galiano presents the ICO Museum’s Francis Kéré show, curated by him, through Semper’s elements and a conversation between the Burkinabè and Anupama Kundoo.
Menil Memoir. A double biography takes stock of the life and work of Dominique and John de Menil, great patrons of contemporary art and archi- tecture. Also: a monograph on the Swiss architect Valerio Oligiati; and two publications on Brits fascinated – each in his own way – with contemporary technology: the Brits Cedric Price and Reyner Banham.
Dossier: Stone. Linked to the primeval, almost mythical construction of architecture, stone continues to be a material with a future, whether serving as cladding or returned to its original loadbearing function. This is explained by the specialist Ramón Araujo in an article followed by three examples where stone is used in different ways: the Victoria & Albert Museum outpost in Dundee (Scotland) by Kengo Kuma, clad with louvers prefabricated with dry petrous materials; the House in Cáceres by Emilio Tuñón, composed of heavy walls of local quartzite; and House 1413 in Ullastret (Girona) by Harquitectes, inserted into a long wall of local stone.
To close, the sociologist Richard Sennett proposes three strategies for in- tervening on the urban fabric: restoration, remediation, and reconfiguration.
