Book excerpt: Los textos escritos con una prosa de denso y riguroso estilo literario, tienden siempre a ser lecciones didácticas en las que al discurso racional y metódico se une el discurso irracional que, señalando lo anómalo y lo contradictorio de gran parte de las realizaciones monumentales, recalca la duplicidad de la condición estructural y atemporal de la arquitectura Con sus obras teóricas y didascálicas contribuye a difundir el conocimiento acerca del arte de la edificación, siguiendo la tradición que desde Vitruvio, pasando por Alberti hasta Le Corbusier, ha constituido un corpus de pensamiento de orden conceptual. Antón Capitel, ensayista y crítico imbuido del espíritu ecléctico y relativista propio de nuestro tiempo, es un autor opuesto a todo dogmatismo, aunque firme en sus convicciones. Su discurso, contrario a los obsoletos preceptos academicistas, es el de un profesional que cree en la capacidad creadora de la arquitectura. Sus libros y textos son una prueba perseverante de su constante dedicación a la enseñanza y a la difusión de sus ideas.

Download or read book Approximation Theory written by Ole Christensen and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2004-03-18 with total page 1080 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This concisely written book gives an elementary introduction to a classical area of mathematics—approximation theory—in a way that naturally leads to the modern field of wavelets. The exposition, driven by ideas rather than technical details and proofs, demonstrates the dynamic nature of mathematics and the influence of classical disciplines on many areas of modern mathematics and applications. Key features and topics: * Description of wavelets in words rather than mathematical symbols * Elementary introduction to approximation using polynomials (Weierstrass’ and Taylor’s theorems) * Introduction to infinite series, with emphasis on approximation-theoretic aspects * Introduction to Fourier analysis * Numerous classical, illustrative examples and constructions * Discussion of the role of wavelets in digital signal processing and data compression, such as the FBI’s use of wavelets to store fingerprints * Minimal prerequisites: elementary calculus * Exercises that may be used in undergraduate and graduate courses on infinite series and Fourier series Approximation Theory: From Taylor Polynomials to Wavelets will be an excellent textbook or self-study reference for students and instructors in pure and applied mathematics, mathematical physics, and engineering. Readers will find motivation and background material pointing toward advanced literature and research topics in pure and applied harmonic analysis and related areas.

Download or read book Punto de Vista and the Argentine Intellectual Left written by Sofía Mercader and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-09-20 with total page 277 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is the first comprehensive account of the Argentine magazine Punto de Vista (1978–2008), a cultural review that gathered together prominent Argentine intellectuals throughout the last quarter of the twentieth century. Directed by cultural historian and public intellectual Beatriz Sarlo, the story of the magazine serves as a lens to study the evolution of Argentine intellectuals from the leftist mobilization of the 1960s through periods of military dictatorship and then the shifting politics of democratization in the 1980s and 1990s. The book argues that the way in which the Argentine intellectual left negotiated the political and cultural transformations of the late twentieth century can be understood as the history of two political defeats: that of the revolutionary utopias of the 1960s and 1970s and that of the social democrat project in the 1980s. By adopting an interdisciplinary approach, this book encompasses a wide range of debates taking place in Argentina, from the years prior to the dictatorship to the postdictatorship period.

Download or read book Why Architects Still Draw written by Paolo Belardi and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2014-02-14 with total page 133 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An architect's defense of drawing as a way of thinking, even in an age of electronic media. Why would an architect reach for a pencil when drawing software and AutoCAD are a click away? Use a ruler when 3D-scanners and GPS devices are close at hand? In Why Architects Still Draw, Paolo Belardi offers an elegant and ardent defense of drawing by hand as a way of thinking. Belardi is no Luddite; he doesn't urge architects to give up digital devices for watercolors and a measuring tape. Rather, he makes a case for drawing as the interface between the idea and the work itself. A drawing, Belardi argues, holds within it the entire final design. It is the paradox of the acorn: a project emerges from a drawing—even from a sketch, rough and inchoate—just as an oak tree emerges from an acorn. Citing examples not just from architecture but also from literature, chemistry, music, archaeology, and art, Belardi shows how drawing is not a passive recording but a moment of invention pregnant with creative possibilities. Moving from the sketch to the survey, Belardi explores the meaning of measurement in a digital era. A survey of a site should go beyond width, height, and depth; it must include two more dimensions: history and culture. Belardi shows the sterility of techniques that value metric exactitude over cultural appropriateness, arguing for an “informed drawing” that takes into consideration more than meters or feet, stone or steel. Even in the age of electronic media, Belardi writes, drawing can maintain its role as a cornerstone of architecture.

Download or read book Art Museums of Latin America written by Michele Greet and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-03-08 with total page 333 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the late nineteenth century, art museums have played crucial social, political, and economic roles throughout Latin America because of the ways that they structure representation. By means of their architecture, collections, exhibitions, and curatorial practices, Latin American art museums have crafted representations of communities, including nation states, and promoted particular group ideologies. This collection of essays, arranged in thematic sections, will examine the varying and complex functions of art museums in Latin America: as nation-building institutions and instruments of state cultural politics; as foci for the promotion of Latin American modernities and modernisms; as sites of mediation between local and international, private and public interests; as organizations that negotiate cultural construction within the Latin American diaspora and shape constructs of Latin America and its nations; and as venues for the contestation of elitist and Eurocentric notions of culture and the realization of cultural diversity rooted in multiethnic environments.

Book excerpt: Desde la antigüedad, la tumba como monumento funerario representa la casa del muerto, entendida como última morada. Es también un reflejo de las creencias y la actitud del hombre ante la muerte. A pesar de vivir en una época que trata a la muerte con tanta ocultación, la arquitectura del siglo XX no ha dejado de interesarse por el tema y ha contribuido con significativas aportaciones al lenguaje de la arquitectura funeraria. La última casa recoge una selección de 60 tumbas, intervenciones de pequeña escala poco divulgadas, que son ejemplo de la amplia variedad de propuestas realizadas por arquitectos, desde principios de siglo hasta la actualidad. Se muestran tumbas realizadas por algunos de los maestros de la arquitectura del siglo XX, por arquitectos contemporáneos de consolidado prestigio y por jóvenes arquitectos del actual panorama internacional. El texto introductorio, a cargo del arquitecto Pedro Azara, realiza un exhaustivo recorrido por la historia de la tumba desde la antigüedad hasta nuestros días.
