In one-way or another, in the last decade of each century many of the transformations that have been “brewing” throughout the century, are carried out, in fact, this fact can be identified, or by disel- plines, or by great interventions that, furthermore, involve the joint work of diverse professionals. Like in many specialties, in architec ture, this situation is alse reflected, In this way, we find that great architects take it upon themselves to "close" a perlod with emblematic projects that, not only identify their work, but rather, also the factof closing a perl- od. Thus, many of these proposals are backed up by large scale plans which are sponsored by the country itselt. Under these conditions, an interac- tion between architecture and the development of the cities is estab- lished: on the one hand, countries back their projects by means of "per- sanal author” architecture, and on the other hand, the architects have become more and more international all the time as they project represen- tative works in distinct places of the world, With all of these lmplicit or ex- plicit intentions, many of the mast important projects In the world have been bullt, backed up by great archi- tectural offices In this book 3 revision is propased of the architecture of the last decade of the twentieth century, by means of the most well-known professionals and some of their emblematic works. Although In many cases the projects chosen are of a great scale, some of minor scale have been introduced due to the fact that they have be- come significant within the trajectary of aspecifie author All of this allows us to offer a double reading of a theme: the first allows us to present the projects of the last decade in or der ta show the world architectural panorama, and the second, ta. present some of the most significant works of an architect sp as to offer a first visian cof his professional development, The book is organized alphabetically by authors, which permits an Immediate vision of Ais warks. With this selection and by means of architects with projects throughout the world, -ranging from authors so different such as Taco Anda or Michael Graves, to such significant architects such a5 Norman Foster— the attempl has been made to offer a global vision of the "canstructed facts” in the last decade of the twen- tleth century, Introduction toujours été des moments déci- sifs dans l'évolution historique del'humanité. D'une fagon ou d'une autee, la derniére decade de chaque slécle est souvent le theatre de la concrétisation des transformations Benérées par celul-cl.Ce phénormene peul étre trate par disciplines ou grandes interventions, résultats du travail conjoint d'un ensemble de Professionnels. L 6 changements de siécle ont Comme dans de nombrewses disci- plines, ce constat se retrouve dans architecture. Certains arcliltectes ont en effet pour mission de “clare” une épogue par des projets emble- 8 beeps matiques, qui non seulement incar- neroant l'ceuvre du martre, mals miar- gueront la fin d'une ere, Ainsi, nomb- rade ces projets s"inscrit dans des planifications 4 grande échelle pro- mues par les pays euiemeémes. Dans ces conditions, une interaction 5'é- tablit entre l‘architecture et |@volu- tion des villes: d'un cdté, les pays renjorcent leurs projets par une ar- chiteeture “d'suteur", et d'un autre, les architectes s‘internationalisent peu d peu grace 4 des euvres em- blématiques implantées dans le monde entier Toutes ces intentions implicites ou explicites ont mené a la Construction de projets parm les plus importants au niveau mondial, en collaboration avec de grandes agences d'architectes. Ce livre propose de passeren revue architecture de laderniére décerinle duos! siécle.a travers les artistes les plus reconnus et certaines de leurs apuvres phares. Bien que la majorité des ceuvres préesentées solent des ceuvres a grande échelle, certaines re- alisations plus modestes ont été int grées par la signification qu’elles avaient prise au sein de la trajectoire dun auteur donne, Tout ceci nous per met d'offrir une double lecture du su. Jetla premiére est une presentation des projets representatifs du panora- ma architectonique mondial de ces dix derniéres arindes: et la deuxieme, une présentation de certaines des ceuvres les plus sipnificatives d'un ar- chitecte donne, et parconsequence de son evolution professionnelle. Les artistes sont classés par ardre alpha- betique, ce qui permet d'aceéder di- rectement a leurs ceuvres Allaot d'auteurs aussi différents que Tadao Ando ou Michael Graves, en passant par des artistes auss| impor tants que Norman Foster, cette sélec- thon d'architectes. et de leurs ceuvres internationales cherche a offrir une vue densemble des “evenements ar chitecturaux” de la derniére décennie du a? siecle. Wrmeoicen F Inleiding belangrilke mormenten ge- weest jn de historische evalu. tie-van de mensheld. Op cen of an- dere manier worden de laatste tien jaren van een eeuw veel veranderin- gen doorgevoerd die in de loop van de eeuw al werden bedacht, Dat kunnen we vaststellen in verschil lende vakgebleden en belangrijke Interventies die bovendien het resul- taat aijn van de samenwerking van verschillende specialisten, FE euwwisselingen zijn altijd al Zoals in vele vakgebleden, yinden we dat fenomeen ook in dearchitectuur terug. We zouden kunnen stellen dat grote architecten een eeuw telkens proberen af te sluiten met belang- rijke projecten, die niet alleen hun werk kenmerken, maar ook het ein de van een periode. Zo worden veel van dié ontwerpen ondersteund door grootschalige projecten die door het land zelf gefinancierd wor- den, Op die manier is er een wissel- werking ontstaan tussen architec tuur en stadsplanning. Enerzijds geven landen hun projecten meer betekenis door ze te laten ontwer- pen door een bekend architect en anderzijds worden de architecten Internationaal steeds bekender dankzij hun projecten die overal ter wereld Verschijnen. Al dle impliciete of expliciete bedoelingen hebben geleid tot de bouw van enkele van de belangnijkste internationale pro- jecten, ondersteund door grote ar- chitecteqbureaus. In dit boel keijgt u een overcicht var de architectuur van de jaren ‘oo van de zoe eeuw aan de hand van de meest bekende architecten en en- kele van hun sprekendste werken. Hoewel het in veel gevallen gaat om grootschalige projecten, wenden ook kleinere prajecten opgenomen als op een of andere manier belangrijk zijn geweest voor de ontwikkeling van de architect. Op die manier krijgt u een tweeledig beeld van het thema aangebodgen, Aan de ene kant krijgt u inzicht in de wereldarchitec: tuurvan die perlode, aan de andere kant kunt uzich verdiepen inde pro- fessianele antwikkeling van de ar- chitecten dankzi] de yoorstelling van hun belangrijkste werken Met deze selectle van architecten met wereldwijde projecten, gaande van heel uiteenlopende kunstenaars zoals Tadao Ando of Michael Graves, tot belangrijke architecten zoals Norman Foster, proberen we cen globaal overzicht te geven van de ‘gebouwde feiten’ van het laatste decennium van de zoe eeuw.
