FRANCISCO CALVO SERRALLER · JONAS MEKAS 

Extravíos, Bosque . EL PAÍS, Babelia 1.191, 20 sep 2014

Escribe Francis Calvo Serraller:  


En su Diario de Cine. El nacimiento del nuevo cine norteamericano (Mangos de hacha), donde el autor, cineasta, escritor y crítico estadounidense de origen Lituano Jonas Mekas (Semeniskiai, 1922) reúne todas las columnas que publicó, entre 1958 y 1971, en Village Voice, hay una fechada el 2 de marzo de 1964 y que destaca ahora en su Introducción a la edición que comentamos, donde nos solo anuncia en falso que dejará de escribirlas, sino que acompaña esta declaración con una sorprendente digresión estética: “Aun el arte puede esclavizar al hombre, quitarle la libertad. Hoy presiento que sólo es sagrado el arte que no tiene ideas, que no tiene pensamientos, significados, contenido, el arte que es, simplemente, hermoso, que no tiene otro propósito que el de su belleza; que simplemente es, como los árboles.
 
Francisco Calvo Serraller Writes:

On his Diary of Cinema. The birth of the new north american cinema, where the author, filmmaker, writer and critic born in Lithuania Jonas Mekas (Seminaski, 1922) gathers all the columns he published, between 1958 and 1971, in Village Voice, there is one dated 2th march 1964, that stands out now in the Introduction at the issue we mention now, where not only he falsely announces he will leave from writing, but he adds an astonishing esthetic statement: "Even today the art can enslave humankind, steal his liberty. Today I have the feeling that is only sacred the art that have no ideas, that have no thoughts, meanings, contents, the art that is, simply,  beautiful, that has no other aim more than his beauty; that simply is, like trees."

SCHOOL YEAR 2014-15 - 1st fourth-month PROGRAM

During the first part of this year, from September to January, we´ll work in Extremadura, in two spots –Medellín, Alcántara- with different urban context. Extremadura is a land located in the southwest of Spain, including Cáceres and Badajoz. Extremadura is a large part of Spain, away from the Mediterranean, Andalucía or the North-South axis (Bilbao-Madrid-Sevilla). A land of emigration and conquerors (Pizarro, Hernán Cortés) was deeply romanized, later occupied by the Muslims and finally gained by Christians to the reign of Castilla in Middle Ages. The emigration to conquest the new world meant wealth to Extremadura, this fact leaded to the construction of Palaces, Monasteries, Convents or Churches. From the late 16th-century to 19th-century, and to the present, the economy of Extremadura has slowly plummeted.
The spots has been chosen because of a sort of problems we can find nowadays, related to the historic context and the appearance of pre-existing constructions.
We understand that is essential to know the spot, also the context of the project, which means to visit the sites. A three or four days bus trip is planned to visit Extremadura, to the sites of the projects proposed. As soon as all the students will be registered the trip will be set.
The aim of this first part is to “struggle” with the site, the pre-existing context, and the landscape, definitely to think about the “circumstance”. Each student must read this particular “circumstance” and define a personal strategy for his project. We must forget the a priori ideas or forms, finding a concrete answer for each occasion. Dealing with the past doesn´t means working like our ancestors means a contemporary solution to the same questions the architects have ever asked to themselves.  A hint is what George Steiner (Grammars and Creation) tells us. He says how the language is inscribed, both in its compound past and its multiple present with its alterations physiologic, temporary and social.

Jock Kinnier · Margaret Calvert


Portada del ICI magazine Plastics Today, 1965.

Es difícil abstraerse de la claridad de la señalética/señalización en el Reino Unido. Jock Kinnier y Margaret Calvert (diseñadores gráficos) fueron, desde 1957, quienes se encargaron de su diseño. La mayoría de las señales actuales de las autopistas, estaciones o aeropuertos derivan se sus diseños y tipografías. Definieron los colores y por ejemplo, el uso de las minúsculas. Comprendieron que las visualizamos y entendemos antes que las leemos, algo que no ocurre con las mayúsculas.
