Abstract

En 1960, Brasilia a été célébrée comme la réalisation d'une vision d'urbanisme basée sur les conceptions de Lúcio Costa et Oscar Niemeyer. Au même moment, la ville sectorielle de Chandigarh s'élève selon les plans de Le Corbusier. La « ville éprouvette » est née comme une exportation de la modernité à partir d'une euphorie de planification occidentale qui affichait des traits utopiques. Dans les deux villes, l'architecture étrangère est entrée dans une relation harmonieuse avec la culture indigène. Cet ouvrage aborde la question de l'appropriation du modernisme dans les deux villes et de la manière dont les habitants y font face. Les points communs et les différences sont identifiés et des images de la vie urbaine quotidienne sont présentées. A l'initiative de l'éditeur, le jeune photographe Iwan Baan fait le point sur la vie contemporaine dans les deux villes.

Abstract

"In 1960, Braslia was celebrated as the realization of an urban-planning vision based on designs by Lucio Costa and Oscar Niemeyer. At the same time, the city of Chandīgarh, rationally laid out in sectors was taking shape according to plans by Le Corbusier. The 'test-tube' city arose as an export of modernity from a Western planning euphoria that reveals utopian traits. Living with Modernity examines how modernism has been expropriated in the two cities. Commonalites and differences are identified while images of everyday urban life are showcased in photographs by photographer Iwan Baan."

Abstract

Aujourd’hui, la relation souvent discordante entre un bâtiment moderniste et son contexte urbain historique est devenue un problème. Est-ce que ce conflit doit être respecté, au nom de l'authenticité ? Ou des approches contemporaines intégratives doivent-elles être utilisées comme base d'une recherche de plus de cohérence au détriment de l'authenticité ? Quel est le rôle de l'histoire de l'architecture dans ce procédé ?

Brazil's modern architecture.

Abstract

Histoire et analyses critiques du Mouvement moderne et de l'urbanisation rapide et volontaire avec, bien sûr, la création de Brasilia qui a mis le Brésil au centre de la création architecturale. Cet ouvrage ne se limite pas à l'étude des années 30 aux années 60 et le dernier chapitre présente quelques réalisations datant du tout début du 21e siècle... This is the most comprehensive survey and analysis of twentieth-century Brazilian Architecture, written by Brazilian architects and writers for an international audience. Its key events and buildings appear not in a conventional chronological account but within a series of thematic chapters (critical reception, construction issues, urbanism, typological description of the modern house, affordable housing and new fields of practice, survey of recent works). It is a history of Brazilian modern architecture retold with a Brazilian voice by the new generation of critics and historians. This book offers a fresh reading of the well-known era of high-modernism of the 1930s-1960s placing it within both the context of architecture before and since and the broader changes taking place in Brazilian culture at the time. It also charts post-Brasilia developments, including contemporary projects, showing how architects have adapted to the contradictions of an increasingly polarised society and the relevance of Brazilian architecture for current debates around issues such as large-scale urban growth and the tension between local identities and global civilisation. Covering around 200 projects, it is extensively illustrated with both historical black and white photographs and new colour photographs and drawings. (extrait du deuxième de couverture)
