Zaha Hadid, the Pritzker architecture that made the dance – Daily News – Lisbon

gave the eye a student and leaves its mark on architecture around the world. Died yesterday at age 65 in Miami.

It is a select lot who can boast the title of starchitect, mixed star and architect, a description often used as critical but which is based on perfection Zaha Hadid, who died yesterday at age 65. Before he received the Pritzker Prize, the most important architecture, and be made the first woman to achieve this, in 2004, he caught the eye recently out of school. He made his first exhibition in 1978 with student projects in the Guggenheim Museum in New York. Only 20 years later would begin to materialize.

Nicknamed neofuturista, Zaha Hadid was the first to accept that their ideas would take years to take shape. He said he, in fact, on one occasion, recalls the architect and critic Luis Santiago Baptista, author of Zaha Hadid in the Space Time Machine (Dafne, 2010). What was different, and that made her win the Pritzer prize – was the first woman and the first Muslim to be distinguished – was this desire to give movement to the space. The British newspaper The Guardian called her the queen of curves. They are a mark of the work of Zaha Hadid, “this dynamic volumes that relate to the landscape”, as summarized Santiago Baptista.

It brings to architecture what the Russian avant-garde art of the early twentieth century brought to the painting, lies the architect and critic. Studies Suprematism artist Kasimir Malevich and Wassily Kandinsky also. “It’s a profound knowledge of this period and this line. It produces theoretical work that stands out among architects. This is the case of The Peak in Hong Kong, 1983.

The first building with its signature, a building housing in Berlin is built between 1986-1993. it is not, however, the work that best reflects your thinking, according to Luis Santiago Baptista. “that’s the Vitra fire station” in an Weil Rhein, Germany, of 1994 says to DN.

the turn of the millennium is the turnaround. “at that time, every week we heard that Zaha Hadid had won an international competition.” Before, working almost alone, taught and lectures by around the world, has curated exhibitions.

Santiago Baptista speaks in a first and a second phase of his professional life. the first, “more craft and manual”, corresponds to the years in which it participates without winning in international competitions. “You have more time, can draw more, makes gorgeous models,” he explains also reminding your (lesser known) facet as a painter. The second phase corresponds to the arrival on the scene of his partner, the German architect Patrick Schumacher, and computers as design tools. The cabinet baptized with his name – Zaha Hadid Architects, based in London – design for everyone. From Dubai to New York, where he made a skyscraper, passing through Azerbaijan, where did the Heydar Aliyev Center (2013) and Qatar, where he designed a stadium for the World Cup 2022.

Between their projects more well received, we highlight MAXXI – National Museum of XXI Century in Rome (2009), the greatest of all, and the Aquatic Centre of the London Olympic Games (2011)

He was involved in controversy (such as the Olympic stadium in Tokyo, which was withdrawn in 2015 it and delivered to a Japanese architect, Kengo Kuma) and gained the reputation of being a person hard to deal with. unfounded accusation, according to John Seabrook in The New Yorker, which describes it as “down-to-earth and lush.” Got together in 2009 when he wrote a profile of the architect and proved that Hadid could not live without a wizard that this response to phone calls, emails and messages that came to him all the time. The news of his death was confirmed yesterday afternoon by his office. “He died suddenly in Miami early in the morning. He had contracted bronchitis early in the week and suffered a heart attack while being treated in hospital.”

Zaha Hadid was born in Baghdad on 31 October 1950. He grew up in the early Bauhaus-inspired neighborhoods of the Iraqi capital, then a monarchy that had been recently released from British control after centuries under Ottoman rule. He remembered those times in the Pritzker acceptance speech: “An indestructible belief in progress and a sense of optimism about the potential to build a better world.” There were tears in public. In 2010 he began to design the Iraqi Central Bank.

He studied mathematics at the American University of Beirut, before diving into the architecture studies in 1972 at the Architectural Association of London. Was Rem Koolhaas and Elia student Zenghelis and collaborated in AOM. In 1979, he began working in his own name, received two time the RIBA Stirling Prize and was awarded the British Empire Dame by Queen Elizabeth II in 2012, while printed their mark on the design – the fashion to furniture. She lived alone in an apartment decorated with his paintings, furniture of his own, the wardrobe (which always caught the attention) five minutes from work.

It was an “inspiration”, according to architect Amanda Levete , author of the building that houses the future Museum of Art, Architecture and Technology EDP Foundation in Lisbon. “It was an extraordinary example for women was fearless and all-terrain. – His work was bold and radical.”

He died the architect Zaha Hadid. The first to win a Pritzker – Mad Money

The architect Zaha Hadid, the first woman awarded the Pritzker Prize, the highest distinction in architecture, died Thursday in a hospital in Miami, in the United States, announced his studio in London. Was 65.

“It is with great sadness that Zaha Hadid Architects confirms that Zaha Hadid died suddenly in Miami in the early hours of this morning,” reads the statement, cited by Lusa.

the text states that the British architect of Iraqi origin was diagnosed with bronchitis days before and suffered a heart attack during treatment at the hospital.

Born in Baghdad in 1950, he studied mathematics at the American University Beirut and graduated architecture in 1977 at the architectural Association in London. Two years later, in 1979, he opened his atelier in which he created works such as the National Museum of Art of the XXI Century in Rome; the London Aquatics Centre, designed for the 2012 Olympics; the Aliyev Center in Baku, capital of Azerbaijan; .

Zaha Hadid: an influential woman in a man’s world – publico

                 

                         
                     

                 

 
 

Zaha Hadid was the greatest symbol of woman architect. In name you won the most important architecture prize, before any other woman to have achieved: the Pritzker in 2004, or the gold medal of the RIBA in 2015. Hadid represented cosmopolitanism for excellence in architecture. He was charismatic.

In the eighties of the last century, Hadid was already considered a major figure among the “star system” of international architectural culture. His name was associated with the “deconstruction”, avant-garde architectural movement, a derrivação of postmodernism, made famous by Mark Wigley and Philip Johnson’s famous exhibition of MoMA – Museum of Modern Art of New York in 1988, entitled precisely deconstructivist Architecture . The central idea of ​​deconstructionism was based on the production of a “problematic architecture” built of fractures and fragmented forms, postmodernity reinvented from an equally historicist revisiting, like all post-modern culture, but pointing to source Russian Constructivism the glorious years of the Bolshevik revolution.

Among the deconstructivist that began in the late eighties, Hadid has positioned itself as a virtuous architect. Its projects were essentially drawing. Until the advent of the current millennium, hardly built. For many years, see a work of Hadid meant to go to Basel to the industrial complex of Vitra and experience, with the highest possible intensity, the 1994 fire station, however transformed into showroom furniture produced by the company . Obtuse angles, unlikely stairs, fragmented walls. The experience of the Vitra fire station defied any purpose functionalist or even less demanding ergonomic. It was rather to break with Euclidean geometry, to create a certain physical discomfort, mainly to test the most stable boundaries of the discipline of architecture. It was operating within a constrained culture, intellectual, simultaneously testing the limits of aesthetics and technique. The technology that would allow transform Hadid designs in built works then took its first steps, clearly linked to the spread of digital computing tools.

Hadid also was not exactly a “deconstructive” fundamentalist, ie It did not depend entirely of Jacques Derrida and philosophical discourse that fed most of the proposals of his colleagues. Despite the awards and important commissions that accumulated in the last ten years, there was no frank consensus on his work. But it had important defenders, as Koolhaas.

However British naturalized citizen, Hadid became the deconstructivist architecture in an aesthetic operation, personal, sophisticated and corporate nature. Buildings won their cityscapes countries in development process or in regions with strong economic acceleration. Since the United States of America, the People’s Republic of China. Also Macau will have its tower 40 projected levels by Hadid’s office, a formidable company worldwide.

The first decades of the twenty-first century were essential to the affirmation of Hadid’s career, the time left to be a reference handled between the reserved circle of architects, emerging as a public figure, with projects around the world. A witness to the death of a powerful woman, influential and clearly feared.

The events of the Cova da Iria in Fatima, Santarem district, October 13, 1917, known as “the miracle of the Sun” inspire “Fatima”, film with budget exceeding 10 million euros that is presented on May 13 in Cannes, France.

Shooting this “remake” of ” the miracle of our lady of Fatima “, 1952, begins in August, but rather a mass at Notre Dame church of Bon Voyage, in Cannes on 13 May, celebrating the centenary of the Apparitions and starts production today announced the press office of “Fatima”.

Architecture contest. The process can be as important as the work – iOnline

As a laboratory it were, where scientific methodology makes the praise of trial and error, the story of a country is built also through trial and error processes. Therefore, in the field of architecture, it is not only the final work, constructed, materialized, that is important, but also the processes that led to this outcome. In this sense, some process will be more challenging and enlightening than the competition, according to Michel Toussaint “a particular form of choices executors ideas and proposals or projective for a site for a building or an alternative search, where multiple dimensions theory and practice can be discussed throughout the contribution of competitors under fire from a jury, sponsorship of a promoter and communication to the outside. “

 
 

It is the importance of this order form that is highlighted in the exhibition “Architecture in Contest: Critical Trail Portuguese modernity”, open since yesterday and until the 29th of May in the South Garage – CCB. “The competitions are not only the possibility of large amount of construction work, but also have a significant contribution in building our cities and accompany the changes typical of the country. Large architectural issues are also key issues of society, “he began by explaining the curator Luis Santiago Baptista, in a presentation where he also underlined the dual dimension -” historical and documentary “- this shows

.
 
 

Just the importance of the process, such trial and error, here not only show the projects that anointed winners of competitions. It is in this show, contests that do not even come to be materialized, as the Sagres Monument and other competition in which, with a winner chosen, were never revealed and analyzed the other competitors. “Here we have contests that failed, projects that were not chosen, but that raised fundamental issues of internal debate among architects, but also external debate with society at large. This show also offers the possibility to show the proposals that were forgotten because they were not chosen. “

 
 

Furthermore, according to the curator of this show, which also aims to celebrate twenty years of the Southern Regional Section procurement service of the Order of Architects, this look at the past is fundamental in building the look of the future: “This was a unique opportunity to present an overview on the subject of competition and realize, at a time when they are released so few, that the defense of competition as a way to order is key. And for that historical research is fundamental.

 
 

You need to know what were the contests throughout history in order to understand what may be today and what will be tomorrow. ” And the controversial ideas often associated with the tender procedure are to Luis Santiago Baptista, fundamental. “I do not care to hide the controversy, which is incidentally one of the qualities of the tender process.” Be the controversy between architects, as in the tender for the expansion of the National Assembly, where there were two winners, having finished project to be created by a third workshop; or discussion among the population, as was the contest behind the creation of the Belém Cultural Centre, which now serves as home to this show.

 
 

This story of national architecture is presented through a wooden structures tangle, a kind of scaffolding, which on the one hand create labyrinthine paths, on the other open paths intertwine in an exhibition space allocated by tender to the collective Forstudio . And why these paths that discovers a double reading of competitions, synchronic and diachronic, because the competition does not end at the time of actual choice, but shall subsist throughout the process leading to the realization of a project.

 
 

Analyzed separately – even without watertight borders – the 45 projects presented here are shown over ten thematic groups (Representation, Institution, Public Space, Culture, Heritage, Landscape, Leisure, Infrastructure, Education and Occupation) through content resulting from a survey of more than a year and the models of collection, designs, drawings, photographs, specifications and even press clippings that reveal “the dimension of research behind this exhibition.”

 
 

These 45 projects displayed fall into a chronology that begins in 1883 and ends at the moment, and which contains 450 selected high tenders out in Portugal. Since the contest for the Parliamentary Cortes, 1883; the first contest analyzed in detail in this show – the National Liceu de Almeida Fialho, Beja, Silva won by the architect Cristino in 1930; the latest project analyzed here and that is the requalification and reordering the beach and seafront of Figueira da Foz and Buarcos, won by Ricardo Vieira de Melo. In between, the story of a country, their identity, their representation, told here by symbols such as CCB, the House of Music, the Metro do Porto, oMuseu Coa, the Assembly of the Republic, Expo 98 and Gare do Oriente, the Calouste Gulbenkian Foundation, the Machado de Castro Museum, the embassy of Portugal in Brasilia, the new headquarters of EDP or to the EstádioNacional if sui generis that is known only that effectively have been a contest without the but knowing the exact winner and who signed the bill.

However, Elton John has already responded through its lawyers, who consider the former employee simply looking for some sort of monetary compensation .

The “most conservative building” Port opened the door to contemporary art – publico

                 

                         
                     

                         
                     

                 

 
 

The Palácio da Bolsa, Porto opened Tuesday the doors to the first exposure resulting from a partnership between the Serralves Foundation and the Porto Commercial Association. This agreement stems from the desire of both institutions to strengthen links with the city and be more open to the public.

The protocol you want the Palácio da Bolsa “pass to have, an itinerant form, exhibits some parts “of the Serralves Museum, explained Nuno Botelho, president of the Porto Commercial Association. Since the beginning of its mandate have been established agreements with other institutions in the city, like the Colosseum or the House of Music. “Such partnerships open the palace doors to the public,” says the president, who also intends to “undo the idea” that the palace is not for the locals. In fact, most visitors (300,000 in 2015) is Portuguese – “Portuguese yes, and portuenses too,” he stressed

The Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Serralves Foundation, Ana Pinho Macedo Silva. wants to make contemporary art collection of “accessible to a wider public” institution, and believes that such partnerships could have a “huge impact”. the show piece gate (gate) is ” the first, to be followed by others, parts of the collection or other exhibitions in Serralves. “

the only part exposed in front of the staircase of the Palace, is the Polish designed by Monika Sosnowska, which last year had their work on display at the Serralves Museum. This piece did not feature at the exhibition, and it is the first time it is presented to the public. Nuno Botelho defines the choice of that piece to the space of the Palace as “bold” since “it is the contrast between the more conservative of the city’s buildings and more modern.”

Suzanne Cotter, director of the Serralves Museum and curator of this exhibition, believes that this piece was the most suitable choice because “space needed a muscular work.” It is a physical construction, heavy, which contrasts violently with the surrounding space, “eclectic architecture,” as defined by the curator. The contrast does not worry Cotter, who believes that “it is important to be able to experience art as a part of our daily lives,” and so it is also important to take it out of the museums.

No plans concrete for what will figure in the palace after the end of the exhibition of the work of Sosnowska, who will be here until September, but there are many for either party ideas, whether collective exhibitions or performances with the Palace of the nineteenth century as a stage.

Born in Rio de Janeiro on 31 July 1962 and a solo career started in 1990 in new York (his first album, self-titled, dated 1993), received in 2009 an invitation that had to do precisely with the 50th anniversary of bossa nova. Publico, she explains how it was: “I was invited by the SWR Big Band Stuttgart; who called me was Ralf Schmid, who collaborated with them to do a project with Brazilian music, bossa nova, with Big Band . I hesitated, because Big Band reminded me Frank Sinatra, I thought I had nothing to do. It was a prejudice. But I was very impressed with the arrangements and realized it would be possible to do a job like this. “They did so, in fact, and gave rise to a disc you put the name of Bossarenova , released in 2010. they played often, especially in Germany

Only then it is that the current trio emerged.: Paula Morelenbaum (voice), Ralf Schmid (piano) and Joo Kraus (trumpet), a Brazilian and two Germans. “It’s a development. We decided to spend a Big Band with 25 people to make a show just us. It was an idea that came about because Joo Kraus already plays for a long time with Ralf Schmid other works have recorded albums together. Most of the arrangements for this training was made to order, with a few songs that we had not recorded in the previous project. “The new album is called Samba Prelude and was released in 2013, already signed the Bossarenova Trio, and was to be called the group.

the disc, as well as Brazilian classics such as the hill has no time , Samba prelude (both Jobim and Vinicius), Samba da minha terra (Caymmi) or Summer Samba (Marcos Valle), together, for example, Foolishness with op 28 prelude paragraph 4 of Chopin and the Orfeo Monteverdi with Happiness of Jobim and Vinicius. And it has other classical passages, such as Serenata of Schubert or Clara , Schumann, both with lyrics in Portuguese Arthur Nestrovski. It has, in addition, two themes of Villa Lobos ( sentimental melody and Trenzinho the Grit ) and an original theme, composed by the trio, with Eucanaã Ferraz poem: spring Summer .

this is what we hear now in Portugal, first in Lisbon, at the Small Auditorium of the Centro Cultural de Belém (Tuesday, 29th, at 21h), then Coimbra (31 in the Music Conservatory at 21.30), Famalicão (April 1, in the House of Arts at 21.30) and Ponta Delgada (day 2, Micaelense Theatre, at 21.30). Since the release of the album, the trio has gone through numerous stages. “We played well in Europe. Just we have not been to Brazil. We are still negotiating a record deal. Our expectation is to get to Brazil with this work. “

It is not a new phenomenon, but last year the Portuguese Association for Victim Support (APAV) has dealt with more cases of people who had been – or were still – subject to some form of aggression by the children: 819, ie more than two victims per day.

in fact, if we consider all the relations of consanguinity (grandparents, children, grandchildren, parents / mothers, sisters / brothers and other close relatives), contabilizam- near 2300 cases. It’s something like a quarter of all accompanied by the association, reads the APAV’s annual report referring to 2015, which will be released on Tuesday.

The most visible face of APAV’s work is domestic violence – and we can see why: the violence in so-called “intimate relationships” (involving companions, husbands and wives, ex-husbands and ex-wives, boyfriends, current and former) represented 58.4% of cases with which the association handled. But there are also increasing reports that children are identified as perpetrators: 687 in 2013; 706 in 2014 and, as we have seen, 819 in 2015. In fact, the situations in which parents are aggressors (1104) fell slightly (7%), while the number of children aggressors rose (16%).

John Lazarus, the direction of the APAV, admits that the major factor explaining this is the growing awareness of people – campaigns to warn of violence against the elderly, particularly by children and other close relatives to be . have some effect and there are more people to seek support

Bullying up 45%
Every year, APAV – a private institution of social solidarity, non-profit – makes a report with the balance of its business, which focuses much, but not only in direct support to those who are victims of any type of crime. The overall numbers 2015 are these: were supported 9612 direct victims and recorded a total of 23,326 crimes (a victim may be or have been the subject of various crimes) or other forms of violence ( bullying , for example, it is not typified as a crime, but is a form of violence)

Some of averages calculated in the report:. a day, nearly three people aged 65 or more years, three children and young people and more than 14 women, between 18 and 64 are victims of crime or other form of violence. This taking into account only the number who sought to support the association. Men are an average of 2.1 per day.

“From 2013 to 2015 there was an increase of 8% in the number of cases, crimes and other forms of violence and victims,” ​​continues . the document

Some types of violence gained ground: the so-called domestic violence, by far the most frequent, rose 10.6% in a year. They are almost the 19,000 recorded crimes. Cases of stalking (445) rose by 30.5% – the victims of “persistent harassment”, the most common Portuguese term for stalking , are usually women, have to around 40 years and a higher degree. And the reports of bullying (134) further increased by 46%. The profile of the victim bullying designed by APAV is this: an average age of 18 years, with a predominance of girls (52% of cases), which shows a schoolmate (in 60% of cases) as the author of the attacks.

as for the crimes of rape decreased by 38% (from 139 to 86) and the sexual abuse of children have experienced little change (from 106 to 102).

Relationships gay
The 2015 report contains some new features. One is to trace for the first time, the profile of victims of domestic violence in couples of the same sex. APAV attended 131 cases of this type -. 57 victims-men and 74 victims-women

The profile of men who were victims in a relationship Gay and resorted to membership is this: has on average 46 years (it’s a little younger than 388 men-victims in heterosexual relationships); in 36% of cases have higher education; in 41% of cases are married or living in union and a minority (38%) is inserted in a nuclear family with children (which does not happen in heterosexual relationships, where most reported living in households with children).

As for the woman who is the victim in a relationship gay has on average 44 years (a little older than the average of women-victims in heterosexual relationships), in 52% of cases is married, six in ten are part of a household with children, 42% have higher education.

“the violence takes many different forms and has many different actors,” explains John Lazarus. victims of profiles show that. Consider, also, the two types of very different victims: the accompanied children are generally female (54.6%) and have an average age of 9.9 years; the elderly are also mostly (80.5%), women have on average 75.4 years and almost always (over 90%) are retired.

Many victims contact APAV only instead, ask for information. The phone is chosen in 60% of cases (the helpline 116,006 works free from morning 9 am to seven pm). But many are followed over time (see text “The oldest case that Mary accompanies is a kid 13 years”), in particular to receive the support of a qualified psychologist. The association made a total of 34,372 calls in 2015.

Moreover, in most cases what people have to report are cases of continued violence (75%). And yet, only 39% of the victims reported having filed a complaint to the authorities. – A percentage that remains low, as last year
