A Living Presence, Proceedings of the Symposium
The symposium was presented by the Partnership for Catholic Sacred Architecture, a collaborative effort between the schools of architecture at The Catholic University of America and the University of Notre Dame. It was held at The Catholic University of America (CUA) School of Architecture and Planning on April 30 and May 1, 2010. The symposium was the vision of Professor Martin, whose desire was that these great universities would work together for the good of the Church in the important mission of creating beautiful sacred architecture.
La urbanística del culto
Por un lado, la compleja regulación, a nivel estatal, autonómico y local, en materia urbanística, unida a las en ocasiones problemáticas actuaciones administrativas por parte de los entes locales, hacen necesaria una clarificación que permita salvaguardar adecuadamente los legítimos derechos e intereses de la Iglesia en esta materia; por otro lado, también a nivel intraeclesial resulta conveniente realizar, desde planteamientos litúgicos y pastorales, una redefinición de los criterios a seguir en relación a la edificación de templos nuevos, y en otras cuestiones igualmente problemáticas.
Architectural Actions on the Religious Heritage after Vatican II
This book serves to shed some light on several controversial questions about contemporary interventions on religious heritage buildings. In the mid-1960s, a process of renewal of Catholic churches began, which sought to respond to the liturgical modifications implemented during the Vatican II (1962-65). Fifty years later, this process continues to be problematic in buildings with a high heritage or historical value. From an operational point of view, it is stimulating to revisit the most relevant architectures at the international level, those high-impact works that were generated thanks to an open and serene dialogue between principals, architects, users, artists and patrimonial leaders. Thus, it is essential to know the criteria that have supported interventions, whether legal (both ecclesiastical and civil), architectural, artistic, liturgical or pastoral. In this sense, what references could be used at a time like ours? How can we reform what has already been reformed?
Tenth International Architecture Exhibition
"This two-volume catalogue of the 10th International Architecture Exhibition presents an anthology of ideas centered around this year's theme: the meta-city. The changes in the physical and social structure of today's city have resulted in a new kind of civilian agglomeration that extends beyond the traditional form, concept, and boundaries of the city, causing profound transformations in the composition of its population and working habits. The International Exhibition, curated by Richard Burdett, will focus on the transformations of cities around the world, featuring New York, London, Berlin, Moscow, Tokyo, Shanghai, Mumbai, Mexico City, São Paulo Beirut, Istanbul, Johannesburg, and Lagos. Additionally, the biennale will propound a manifesto for rational development of cities in the 21st century. This book will be the definitive catalogue of what is perhaps the most important architecture exhibition in the world."--Wrapper description.
Presiciones sobre arquitectura religiosa contemporanea
El lector tiene en sus manos una pequen~a coleccio ́n de textos acade ́micos que intentan combinar el rigor cienti ́fico con el intere ́s de un arti ́culo de divulgacio ́n. Todos ellos han sido publicados recientemente en journals o en actas de congresos especializados, o al menos, esta ́n en proceso de edicio ́n. Su hilo conductor es la arquitectura religiosa contempora ́nea. La palabra "Precisiones" que encabeza el ti ́tulo tiene un evidente sabor corbusieriano, pero tambie ́n latinoamericano. Si los textos de la primera mitad del libro giran en torno a diversos aspectos de la obra de Jeanneret —la dimensio ́n cosmolo ́gica de la arquitectura, su fascinacio ́n por el oculti...
Escritos sobre arquitectura religiosa contemporanea
Este libro es una recopilación de escritos dedicados a la arquitectura religiosa contemporánea, es decir, la producida en el entorno de los últimos cien años. Todos ellos han sido publicados previamente y han sido revisados para la presente edición. Los textos que aquí se presentan comparten una misma idea de fondo: la necesidad de encontrar una fundamentación sólida para poder explicar y construir las iglesias de nuestros días. En efecto. Uno de los problemas más delicados que han afrontar la arquitectura religiosa occidental en el arranque de este nuevo milenio es la identidad del edificio de culto cristiano. Las experiencias globalizadoras reclaman, de las personas y de las inst...
