[Nettime-ro] jAN Eugen - SEDUCED AND ABANDONED, Atelier 030202, vineri 7 oct., h.19.00 |
Jan Eugen (RO), SEDUCED AND ABANDONED / SEDUSÄ ÈI ABANDONATÄ scroll for English RO 7 - 25 octombrie 2011 Curatoare: Olivia NiÅiÅ Vernisaj: vineri, 7 octombrie 2011, ora 19.00, ATELIER 030202 (Sala NouÄ TC), str. SfÃnta Vineri nr. 11, BucureÅti Relocarea propusÄ de Jan Eugen are de-a face cu identitatea Åi politica de locuire. Orice formÄ de civilizaÅie ÃÅi dÄ mÄsura nivelului sÄu prin relaÅia cu spaÅiul locuit Åi locuibil, iar o naÅiune poate fi identificatÄ prin formulele arhitecturale dictate de contextul socio-politic. Ãn RomÃnia comunistÄ regimul politic a mizat pe o uniformizare arhitecturalÄ, distrugÃnd, sau, Ãn cel mai bun caz ascunzÃnd prezenÅele acelor clÄdiri boiereÅti gÃndite de arhitecÅi ÅcoliÅi la Viena, Paris sau Berlin, Åi construite Ãnainte de 1947, propunÃnd construcÅii masive de beton cu un confort meschin care sÄ ÃnghitÄ milioanele de cetÄÅeni, priviÅi Åi ei prin aceeaÅi lupÄ a uniformizÄrii egalitariste. Industrializarea de masÄ a adus cu sine Åi construirea unor numeroase clÄdiri industriale Ãn direcÅia creÄrii locurilor de muncÄ pentru Ãntregul sector de populaÅie urbanÄ Åi ruralÄ. OdatÄ cu cÄderea Cortinei de Fier, Europa de Est Åi implicit RomÃnia intrÄ Ãntr-un alert proces de construcÅie (Åi mai puÅin de reconstrucÅie) sub imperiul occidentalizÄrii Åi al globalizÄrii, accentuÃnd principiile consumului de masÄ. Cele mai multe clÄdiri ridicate dupÄ 1989 Ãn RomÃnia sunt clÄdiri de birouri sau mall-uri, iar aceste investiÅii au mers Ãn paralel cu un abandon extrem de ridicat al spaÅiilor industriale, care au funcÅionat Ãn timpul regimului ceauÅist. SituaÅia extrem de gravÄ a acestor spaÅii abandonate nu poate fi rezolvatÄ Ãntr-un sistem politic Åi economic bazat pe corupÅie Åi consum, pe profit fÄrÄ sau cu minimÄ investiÅie, fÄrÄ conceperea unor proiecte viabile care sÄ poatÄ reintegra aceste spaÅii Ãntr-un circuit firesc al locuirii. Proiectul lui Jan Eugen ridicÄ o problemÄ esenÅialÄ, aceea a folosirii maxime a unui spaÅiu urmatÄ de ignoranÅa Åi abandonul sÄu, pe fondul intereselor economice. TotodatÄ, acest proiect ridicÄ Åi problema asumÄrii trecutului istoric Åi semnalarea necesitÄÅii unei reforme la nivelul politicilor de locuire. Acestea sunt Ãn mod firesc legate de politicile sociale, economice Åi culturale, implicÃnd aspecte ce Åin de calitatea vieÅii, Åomaj, degradarea mediului, valorificarea Åi conservarea patrimoniului, dezvoltare urbanÄ, eficienÅÄ turisticÄ Åamd. ClÄdirea Fast Eco, fosta IAUC (Institutul de AparaturÄ Åi Utilaje pentru Cercetare) a fost datÄ Ãn folosinÅÄ Ãn 1979, fiind consideratÄ âo spactaculoasÄ realizare arhitectonicÄâ. DupÄ 1989 a devenit proprietate privatÄ, spaÅiile fiind date spre Ãnchiriere, fÄrÄ reparaÅii Åi profitÃndu-se la maximum prin casarea aparaturii si utilajelor interne. Ãn prezent, clÄdirea este pÄrÄsitÄ Ãntr-un procent de 60%. Istoriei acestui loc i se mai pot adÄuga atÃtea altele, pentru cÄ acest areal autohton este ÃmpÃnzit de clÄdiri gÃrbove, Åtirbe, erodate de timp, care au fost cÃndva ca niÅte tinere seducÄtoare, dar seduse Ãn acelaÅi timp, Åi evident, abandonate, Ãn cel mai clasic stil patriarhal. Olivia NiÅiÅ detalii pe: www.experimentalproject.ro EN October 7-25, 2011 Curator: Olivia NiÅiÅ Opening: Friday, October 7th, 2011, 19.00 hours, ATELIER 030202 (Sala NouÄ TC), 11 SfÃnta Vineri street, Bucharest Jan Eugen suggests a relocation that has to do with identity and housing policy. Any form of civilization can be measured by the relationship with the living space and a nation can be identified by architectural formulas dictated by the socio-political context. In the communist Romania, the political regime relied on architectural uniformity, destroying, or, at best hiding presences of those buildings designed by architects educated in Vienna, Paris or Berlin, and built before 1947, offering massive concrete buildings with a mean comfort to swallow millions of people, seen through the same lens of egalitarian uniformity. Mass industrialization brought the construction of numerous industrial buildings in the creation of jobs for the entire sector of urban and rural population. With the fall of the Iron Curtain, Eastern Europe and implicitly Romania enters into an alert construction process (rather than reconstruction) under the influence of westernization and globalization, emphasizing the principles of mass consumption. Most buildings built after 1989 in Romania are office buildings or shopping malls, and these investments went in parallel with a very high level of abandonment of the industrial spaces that functioned during the Ceausescu regime. The extremely serious situation of these abandoned buildings can not be solved in a political and economic system based on corruption and consumption, with no or minimal investment, without designing viable projects that can reintegrate these spaces in a natural flow of housing. Jan Eugenâs project raises a key issue, that of the maximum use of space followed by ignorance and drop-out, due to economic interests. However, this project raises the issue of past history and reporting the need for reforming housing policies. These are related to social, economic and cultural policies, involving aspects of life quality, unemployment, environmental degradation, exploitation and preservation, urban development, tourism efficiency and so on. Fast Eco Building, the former IAUC (Apparatus and Equipment Institute of Research) was opened in 1979, being considered "a spectacular architectural achievement." After 1989 it became private property, the spaces being placed for rent, without repairs and taking maximum advantage of internal equipment and machinery. Currently, the building is abandoned at a rate of 60%. To the history of this place and can be added many others, because our local area is full of buildings eroded by time, which were once like seductive young ladies, but at the same time seduced, and of course, abandoned, in the most classic patriarchal style.
