DOCUMENTAL - EL CÓDIGO - FORMAS (Canal Odissea) Frank Lloyd Wright Frank Lloyd Wright (born Frank Lincoln Wright, June 8, 1867 – April 9, 1959) was an American architect, interior designer, writer and educator, who designed more than 1000 structures and completed 532 works. Wright believed in designing structures which were in harmony with humanity and its environment, a philosophy he called organic architecture. This philosophy was best exemplified by his design for Fallingwater (1935), which has been called "the best all-time work of American architecture".[1] Wright was a leader of the Prairie School movement of architecture and developed the concept of the Usonian home, his unique vision for urban planning in the United States. Early years[edit] Frank Lloyd Wright was born Frank Lincoln Wright in the farming town of Richland Center, Wisconsin, United States, in 1867. His father, William Carey Wright (1825–1904), was a locally admired orator, music teacher, occasional lawyer, and itinerant minister. Education and work for Silsbee (1885–1888)[edit]
Ways of seeing John Berger The Competition: a documentary that exposes how 'starchitects' really work | Art and design Sleepless nights, set-tos and screwed-up paper retrieved from the bin – all the stuff great architecture is made of. Right? For anyone with the slightest suspicion of the insidious, futile processes at work behind the glossy facades of the world's so-called 'starchitects', a new documentary by Spanish architect Angel Borrego Cubero makes for compulsive viewing. The Competition, which has its UK premiere at the Barbican tonight, follows the trials and tribulations of five stellar practices competing in a doomed bid to build a new national museum for Andorra, back in 2009. As the global financial crisis hit rock-bottom, no job was too small for architects whose dreams of dotting Middle Eastern deserts with their snazzy signatures had been revealed as a hopeless mirage. It is a routine, familiar to anyone who has worked on competitions of this kind, that jumps and jolts between utterly different proposals: one minute the answer is a ground-scraper; the next it is a willowy tree.

Arquitectura Archives comenta Luis Fernández Galiano en rueda de prensa en el Museo del Traje el pasado martes 25 de marzo, con el motivo de la experiencia de haber entrevistado a los protagonistas de la próxima edición del DVD: Arquia / Maestros de la Fundación Arquia. Los tres arquitectos protagonistas de esta nueva edición de arquia / maestros, Oriol Bohigas, Rafael Moneo y Juan Navarro Baldeweg se sumergirán en un entorno de penumbra acompañados por un entrevistador, Luis Fernandez Galiano que facilitará la natural expresión de las ideas y la reflexión personal. Las entrevistas están organizadas en seis módulos, “un esquema de malla modular donde se traduce el color de cada arquitecto” destaca el Arq. Fernández Galiano. El primero se centra en la formación e infancia de cada uno de ellos, y los cinco restantes se dedicarán a recorrer el legado arquitectónico a través de quince obras representativas, ilustrando la personalidad, el esfuerzo y el progreso de una vida a través del arte de la construcción.
