  6. The Reception of Team 10 in Portugal
    1. Pedro , Baía

    The Reception of Team 10 in Portugal

    Team 10 - auch als Team X und Team Ten bekannt - war eine internationale Gruppe junger und streitbarer Architekt:innen, die aus dem Congrès International d'Architecture Moderne (CIAM) hervorging und von 1953 bis 1981 bestand. Die Gruppe kritisierte namentlich die dogmatischen Vertreter der klassischen Moderne, vorneweg Le Corbusier. Zu ihren wichtigsten Mitgliedern zählten unter anderen Alison und Peter Smithson (Grossbritannien), Georges Candilis und Shadrach Woods (USA), Jacob Bakema und Aldo van Eyck (Niederlande), Giancarlo De Carlo (Italien) und Stefan Wewerka (Deutschland). In diesem Buch untersucht Pedro Baía den Einfluss von Team 10 auf die portugiesische Architekturkultur. Anhand von Projekten, realisierten Bauten, Bildern, Texten und Äusserungen von Mitgliedern des Team 10 veranschaulicht er, wie dessen Ideen und Wirken im kritischen Diskurs der Architekturszene Portugals interpretiert, verbreitet und angeeignet wurden. Baía zeichnet ein umfassendes Bild davon, wie das Erbe von Team 10 in der Baukultur des Landes interpretiert und neu ausgearbeitet wurde.

    Dear Axel... 99 Postcards from Alison and Peter Smithson

    Between 1985 and 2002, the British architects Alison and Peter Smithson transformed the Hexenhaus from a modest vernacular cottage to one of the most remarkable houses of the late twentieth century. The architects completely redefined the relationship between the house and its surrounding landscape by means of more than twenty small additions, extractions, satellite buildings, furnishing operations and alternative routes. During this long process, they established a close relationship with their client, the owner of the furniture company Tecta Axel Bruchhäuser, who still lives there to this day. Axel is a key figure when it comes to comprehending the house's design. As Peter Smithson wrote: "To work with such a person is to receive notions, strongly felt and expressed, which are the beginning of a spatial transformation. Each gives what the other needs."Text: Anna Bach.
