Abstract:

El objetivo de esta comunicación es evaluar de modo crítico la influencia del pensamiento unitario en la concepción de la Primera Iglesia Unitaria de Rochester de Louis Kahn. Partiendo de la visita al templo y de la interacción con los feligreses, se recoge información de Louis Kahn y la Primera Iglesia Unitaria de Rochester.Las conexiones se establecen planteando las premisas de la Iglesia Unitaria sobre la revisión de los datos recogidos del arquitecto respecto a la concepción de la idea. Se estudia el proyecto final en relación a estas premisas, lo que aporta una triple lectura que conjuga las intenciones del arquitecto con las necesidades de la Iglesia y la evolución del proyecto.Croquis, dibujos y fotografías representan las distintas fases de la formalización del concepto. El arquitecto aporta una solución que, aunando traslaciones culturales y tecnológicas, el cliente identifica como propia.

Abstract:

Louis I. Kahn was not only an architect of powerful buildings; he was also an unconventional teacher and a radical philosopher whose influence on his students was far-reaching. It is through his many former students, especially those in his Master's Class at the University of Pennsylvania, 1960–74, that Kahn's distinctive philosophy of education and unique pedagogy have continued to influence the teaching and making of architecture in the late modern era.Focusing on a neglected area of Kahn scholarship, the author argues that Kahn's legacy as a teacher should be remembered as among his greatest accomplishments. The study examines Kahn's philosophy of education, his unique pedagogy, and his motives for teaching. It draws upon the author's experience as a student in the Master's Class and extensive research at the Louis I. Kahn Collection housed in Penn's Architectural Archives, the comprehensive repository of records relating to Kahn's academic and professional career. It is the first study to be based upon interviews with numerous fellow Master's Class alumni, reflecting the views expressed by Kahn's students about their teacher and the lasting impact of his teaching on their professional lives.

Abstract:

Las pinturas y dibujos del arquitecto Louis Kahn fueron catalogados en el libro de Jan Hochstim (1991), permitiendo a los interesados por la obra gráfica de Kahn estudiarlos en mayor profundidad en posteriores publicaciones. En este ensayo pretendemos mostrar la posible influencia en algunos dibujos de Kahn de las litografías de Louis Lozowick, un artista muy celebrado a comienzos de los años treinta por sus dibujos de la American Scene.

Abstract:

This paper surveys the historical urban infrastructure and architecture of the School of Mechanical Engineering at Tel-Aviv University, designed by one of the greatest architects of the 20th century, Louis I. Kahn. The paper describes the monumental architecture of the building, which hints subtly to the qualities and complexity of the internal spaces. The structure is the only building ever erected in Israel by Kahn, and became an architectural icon, presenting the best in the Brutalist architectural style to be found in Tel-Aviv-Yafo, alongside other outstanding structures from the same period.

Abstract:

Con ocasión del reciente centenario de Louis I. Kahn, su figura y trayectoria profesional han vuelto a ser objeto de estudios y análisis. Tal es el caso de la elegante monografía de Robert McCarter publicada por Phaidon en el 2004, o la sorprendente película, My Architect: A Son’s Journey, documental nominado para los Óscar 2004, realizado por su hijo Nathaniel Kahn, en el que intenta indagar en el personaje que apenas llegó a conocer. Poco nuevo se puede decir sobre sus obras construidas, sobre sus edificios para las grandes instituciones o sobre sus viviendas. Sin embargo, el amplio registro gráfico de sus planos y dibujos, publicado en la Garland Architecture Archives, aún permite un acercamiento a su obra intentando indagar en algunos aspectos poco conocidos de su trabajo, como pueden ser los procesos proyectuales de algunos encargos que no llegarían a materializarse. Este artículo aborda uno de esos proyectos, las viviendas conocidas como las Parasol Houses, quizá una de las primeras obras en las que se dejan ver las inquietudes formales –la geometría, el orden, la estructura– acometidas por Kahn a partir de la década de los cincuenta.

Abstract:

In February 2018, Ana Tostões interviewed William Whitaker, curator and collections manager of the Architectural Archives of the University of Pennsylvania School of Design, where the Louis I. Kahn Collection is hosted, in order to debate the importance of documentation for the preservation of Kahn’s legacy. William Whitaker was curatorial consultant of the exhibition Louis Kahn: The Power of Architecture (Vitra Design Museum, 2012) and is the co-author of The Houses of Louis I. Kahn (with George Marcus, 2013), the first comprehensive publication on the architect’s house designs. The management of the Louis I. Kahn Collection has been having a fundamental role, not only in the documentation and interpretation of Kahn’s life and work, but also in the success of the contemporary rehabilitation projects undertaken in his buildings.

Abstract:

In February 2018, Ana Tostões interviewed David Brownlee, pioneer researcher on Louis I. Kahn and an historian of modern architecture and professor of the history of art at the University of Pennsylvania, in order to debate Kahn’s realm of ideas and their contemporary significance. David Brownlee was guest curator of the exhibition Louis I. Kahn: In the Realm of Architecture (Museum of Modern Art, New York, 1992), and is co-author of the homonymous book (with David G. De Long, New York, 1991, translated into four other languages) that stands as the first worldwide comprehensive publication on Louis I. Kahn.
