In The Possibility of an Absolute Architecture, Pier Vittorio Aureli proposes that a sharpened formal consciousness in architecture is a precondition for political, cultural, and social engagement with the city. Aureli uses the term absolute not in the conventional sense of "pure," but to denote something that is resolutely itself after being separated from its other. In the pursuit of the possibility of an absolute architecture, the other is the space of the city, its extensive organization, and its government. Politics is agonism through separation and confrontation; the very condition of architectural form is to separate and be separated. Through its act of separation and being separated, architecture reveals at once the essence of the city and the essence of itself as political form: the city as the composition of (separate) parts. Aureli revisits the work of four architects whose projects were advanced through the making of architectural form but whose concern was the city at large: Andrea Palladio, Giovanni Battista Piranesi, Étienne Louis-Boullée, and Oswald Mathias Ungers. The work of these architects, Aureli argues, addressed the transformations of the modern city and its urban implications through the elaboration of specific and strategic architectural forms. Their projects for the city do not take the form of an overall plan but are expressed as an "archipelago" of site-specific interventions.
Architectural form reconsidered in light of a unitary conception of architecture and the city.

圖書標籤: 建築 建築理論 PierVittorioAureli 城市 Architecture 哲學 Architectural-Theory 意大利
讀的相當纍瞭 但是把建築看作城市的歸宿其實很有意思 建築學科發展齣城市規劃再縮到城市設計最後迴到建築
評分last summer missed Aureli at gsapp.
評分當A(城市)在古代(希臘)的時候存在著兩個意思B(政治:衝突)+C(經濟:住宅分配的效用)的話,那麼,經過2000的發展,A丟掉瞭B,而極端的強化瞭C,然後A變成瞭D(urbanization是C主導下的infinite process)。那麼,如何在D中重新找到C之後得到的E(指的是海洋中的群島,群島就是一個自足的形式),然後獲取建築自身的存在,就是本書的處理核心。然後作者在密斯/庫哈斯、帕拉迪奧、布雷、Unger等人的實踐中,得到瞭驗證和論據。進而提及一種異樣的architectural form stimualted by city project.
評分第一次在建築語境中用“絕對”一詞,pv“絕對”的意義應該在“分離”,是一種stop-city在與城市化過程的內部對抗中尋求的某種分離,這種分離的意義在本篇以及他的自主性那部著作中已經做好瞭理論闡述,然而現實中具體的可實施性問題現在勢必需要用他所說的策略性方案提供一個多元的決策嚮度,協商,並加以論證,其“絕對”的意義,在空間的實踐spatial practice過程中將如何再現
評分Aureli is not what I imagined to be determined and definite about types. for ADR typology, recommended by Abe. like the drawings a lot thou.
