Rogelio Salmona

Sinopsis del Libro

Colombian architect Rogelio Salmona has translated pragmatic and poetic concepts and intentions into physical form. These result from the architect's deep communion with and understanding of the materials and processes, as well as of the historic-cultural context in which his architectural intervention takes place. Salmona's oeuvre, including such notable examples as the Torres del Parque (1967) in Bogota, the Presidential House for Illustrious Guests (1981) in Cartagena, the Quimbaya Museum (1983) in Armenia and the National Archive of the Nation (1992) in Bogota, is without doubt one of the most prolific and significant of those produced on this continent during the second half of this century. This book, a tribute to, rather than an exhaustive study of the architect's work, consists of a personal and selective interpretation at the iconographic and textual level, in particular of the work which post-dated the Torres del Parque.

Loos pubblicò anche numerosi saggi durante la sua vita, il più notevole dei quali è lo spesso incompreso "Ornament and crime". Annotation Supplied by Informazioni Editoriali

REVISTA GEOMETRÍA Nº 1 / CÁDIZ - MÁLAGA

GEOMETRÍA fue una revista técnica e independiente que, dirigida por el Arquitecto José Seguí, se editó entre los años 1.985 y 2.000 tratando de recuperar el diálogo profesional entre las prácticas de la arquitectura y del urbanismo, desarrollando y entendiendo el proyecto arquitectónico y urbanístico desde la propia estructura urbana que lo soporta y su referencia al proyecto global de la ciudad. Esta conjunción de valores estéticos y prácticos, que podríamos definirlos como el arte de construir ciudades, fue el centro de un debate profesional que construyó la disciplina de la...
