The Building

Since 2014, José Aragüez has led the international project “The Building” which has yielded two symposia—at Columbia GSAPP and the Architectural Association in London—and a theory seminar at Cornell University. The results of this work have culminated in a recent book from Lars Müller Publishers, which will be the topic of discussion at this event.
Over the last few decades, architectural history and theory have done a remarkable and necessary job of expanding their limits and audiences. The flip side of this expansion, however, has been a marked displacement of the object, and with it ultimately a certain neglect of architectural thinking proper. On the other end of the spectrum, discussions centered firmly round design process and outcome have often proved self-referential or restricted to the spheres of practice and studio teaching alone. This project constructs a bridge between these two tendencies by mobilizing a topic—“the building”—that typically belongs in the latter while seeking the former’s expansion. If the dominant approach driving architectural history and theory today concerns identifying novel subject matter, here instead the challenge involves taking up one of the discipline’s oldest themes and reconfiguring it through the intellectual tools now at our disposal.

Forty-three contributors based in Europe and the US, including deans and academic leaders, architects, historians, theorists, philosophers, and doctoral candidates, offer poignant explorations of key architectural structures conceived across Asia and the West from the late 1980s to the present. In exploring these structures through a number of questions both intra- and metadisciplinary—like sameness, value, iconography, objecthood, the urban subject, boredom, and digital technologies—this volume suggests ways in which buildings can trigger conceptual frameworks whose influence extends beyond architecture into other domains of knowledge and practice. Such domains include cultural and intellectual history, philosophy, literary theory, the city, the arts, and design at large.
By way of the building, therefore, this book illustrates the distinct capacity of architectural thinking to engender far-reaching concepts and, more generally, discourse—while the serendipitous encounters between diverse case studies from Europe, Asia, and the US unveil unexpected synergies and tensions that open up new research territories in design culture.

José Aragüez is an architect, scholar, editor, and educator. He is Adjunct Professor of Architecture at Columbia University—where he leads graduate design studios and seminars—and is scheduled to complete his PhD in the History and Theory of Architecture at Princeton on January 14th, 2019.

Aragüez holds a Diploma in Architecture and Urbanism from University of Granada, Spain (Honorable Mention, University Graduation Extraordinary Prize, and 1st National Prize in Architecture) and, from Columbia GSAPP, a post-professional Master’s degree (Honor Prize for Excellence in Design) and a Graduate Certificate in Advanced Architectural Research. He has lectured extensively across Europe, North America and in the Middle East—including most of the top schools—and taught, besides Columbia, at Cornell, Princeton, Rice University in Paris, and University of Granada. His recent five-year project, culminating in the publication of The Building (2016, Lars Müller Pub.), is described in international circles as one of the most significant contributions to architectural discourse in the last decade.

Event Details

|IT|

Il centro interdipartimentale FULL – the Future Urban Legacy Lab e la China Room sono lieti di annunciare il sesto appuntamento del Ciclo di seminari: Le legacy urbane tra patrimonio, diritti e innovazione, a cura del Prof. Carlo Olmo, con la lecture dell’architetto Lorenzo Bellicini dal titolo La metamorfosi delle costruzioni e una nuova utopia urbana. La lecture si terrà il 14 Dicembre 2018, alle ore 17 e 30, nella Sala dello Zodiaco del Castello del Valentino.

Lorenzo Bellicini è Direttore del CRESME. Architetto, è’ nel board di Euroconstruct (network di 19 istituti di ricerca specializzati nelle analisi economiche del settore delle costruzioni di altrettanti paesi europei). Ha partecipato alla fondazione dell’IMES (Istituto meridionale di storia e scienze sociali). Ha insegnato Economia Urbana presso la Facoltà di Architettura dell’Università degli Studi di Roma Tre dal 1998 al 2004.

La metamorfosi delle costruzioni e una nuova utopia urbana

La fase socio-economica che stiamo vivendo è caratterizzata da un ciclo sistemico di accumulazione che sta ridisegnando l’economia-mondo: città e costruzioni sono al centro di questo nuovo scenario. Da un lato perché nuova urbanizzazione, industrializzazione e infrastrutturazione sono l’esito della crescita economica delle economie emergenti e dall’altro perché le città delle economie avanzate hanno avviato una nuova fase di trasformazione. Il mondo sta vivendo il più alto salto di scala nella dotazione di capitale fisso edilizio e infrastrutturale della sua storia, una vera e propria fase di re-ingegnerizzazione, e il XXI secolo è di nuovo il secolo delle città, terminali e nodi dei flussi delle catene globali del valore, luoghi di concentrazione dell’innovazione e di pesanti contraddizioni. Allo stesso tempo l’economia mondo è investita da determinanti che cambiano i paradigmi di riferimento dello sviluppo così come lo abbiamo conosciuto almeno dal secondo dopoguerra: l’allargarsi della globalizzazione e l’ingresso in un mondo a leadership multipolare; il processo di iper-finanziarizzazione dell’economia; l’avvio della rivoluzione digitale; il tema incombente del cambiamento climatico; il ridisegno di una nuova utopia costruita sugli obiettivi dello sviluppo sostenibile; il determinarsi di nuovi squilibri sociali e territoriali. Questo complesso processo di cambiamento produce, prima di ogni altra cosa, la riconfigurazione del mercato e poi una profonda selezione. Una selezione sociale, tipologica, imprenditoriale, ma soprattutto basata sulla capacità di innovazione che investe i territori, le città, i settori economici, il settore delle costruzioni. Un settore delle costruzioni che, più in ritardo di altri, si trova davanti alla sfida di una profonda metamorfosi, tecnologica, organizzativa e di produttività. Come il nostro Paese, le sue città, il suo settore delle costruzioni stiano affrontando il cambiamento e la selezione che ne deriva è il tema del seminario.

18dec9:009:00Urban Digital Commons and The Future of Cities | 10° Nexa Conference

Event Details

Nexa Center for Internet and Society in cooperation with FULL – the Future Urban Legacy Lab presents the 10° Nexa Conference Urban Digital Commons and The Future of Cities

“Smart Cities” and “Smart Communities” have been recurrent keywords in countless projects and initiatives in the last decade, addressed to the emerging problems of our cities in the XXI century: pollution monitoring systems, smart grids, devices for remote health monitoring, robots for assisting aging population, traffic management systems are some examples.

Recently the smart city rhetoric has attracted an increasing number of critics because most of the funding agendas and of the proposed solutions are ascribable to forms of technocratic and market driven governance -often bound to black box technologies and data- which do not really address the real causes of the complex urban issues.

To recover the neglected role of societies in the urban governance, several counter-proposals are rooted on the notions of social and civic rights, citizens active participation through technology, and on the idea of urban digital commons.

The 10th Nexa Conference is focused on the latter: we will discuss the role of urban digital commons in shaping the future governance of our cities, in the context of two ongoing projects: the Digital Open Urban Twin at the Future Urban Legacy Lab, and the H2020 project DECODE.
