El ser humano es parte de la naturaleza. Sin embargo, es común cierto desprecio a lo artificial, creado por el ser humano. Esto en oposición a lo natural, no tocado por nosotros. Esta realidad evidencia nuestra característica humana de oposición al cambio, al que tememos.
Esta oposición al cambio, manifestada como ansia por la conservación, se extiende a la obra de los humanos que nos han precedido en la historia. Nuestra contradicción moderna, conservar la intervención de otro.
Tal vez podamos profundizar en esta dirección en otra oportunidad. Esta vez sólo tomo la idea para comenzar resaltando que, a nivel mediático, se va haciendo más valorado conservar que intervenir. Así, el ecologismo gana espacios, mientras la industria maderera y la transgénica generan, de una forma low profile, productos que necesitamos y reclamamos. Del mismo modo, la conservación las ruinas de un teatro romano está bien vista y su remodelación total es atacada duramente.
Todo esto con las honrosísimas excepciones de rigor.
La arquitectura es un concepto sumamente humano en su afán por intervenir la naturaleza. Hoy en día llega a ser un oficio ingrato, por las razones que he expuesto antes.
Admiro a los buenos arquitectos. Un buen arquitecto puede dirigir una de las facetas del proyecto interventor de la humanidad y aún ser reconocido positivamente por la mayoría de sus co-especímenes.
Creo que Calatrava pertenece a este club. Le he conocido a través de La Cuidad de las Artes y las Ciencias. Un complejo cultural del cual es coautor.
Como he mencionado antes, y mencionaré en futuros posts, en la ciudad de Valencia se llevó a cabo una intervención radical del medio ambiente. Se desvió el río de la ciudad. El río Túria.
Este trabajo dejó como resultado un cauce seco que atraviesa la ciudad hoy en día. Este lugar ha sido intervenido nuevamente. La Ciudad de las Artes y la Ciencias está conformada por los últimos artefactos que se encuentran antes de la llegada del cauce al mar. Un acuario enorme, el mayor de todo el continente europeo. Un museo de ciencias, un museo artístico, una sala de proyecciones, espejos de agua, caminerías, puentes y jardines.
Calatrava se inclina por el blanco como color, gusta de la linea curva, muchas veces prefiere la asimetría con respecto a ejes. Incorpora la estructura activamente al diseño de sus obras, haciéndola protagonista de su propuesta. Sus obras se han explicado como esculturas de motivos naturales y de movimiento escaladas al tamaño de grandes estructuras. Así, es conocida la inspiración en un ojo humano para el diseño del hemisférico.
Ya para cerrar quiero regresar la atención a la presencia en el lecho de un río seco de esas edificaciones blancas, que muestran algo de azar en su disposición, que definen un volumen y aún dejan evidentes espacios vacíos entre su estructura. Se me hace inevitable pensar en ellas como los huesos fosilizados de un gigante prehistórico.

Parecen fósiles gigantes en el lecho del río

En una ribera un pasillo, un homenaje a Gaudí

L'hemisfèric: una sala de proyección inspirada en el ojo humano. Luego el museo Príncipe Felipe. Al final, un detalle del Oceanográfico.

El palacio de las artes Reina Sofía, de frente y de perfil.
Su aspecto más resaltante, la estructura en forma de hoja que sirve de techo, apoyada en un solo extremo.

Mientras escribía esta entrada, tomaba las fotos, etc; Calatrava ha sido noticia corriente. El puente que ha diseñado para Venecia, viajaba por las aguas del gran canal de la ciudad.

Un interventor con suerte. Hasta donde se, Venecia aún busca un nombre para la obra. Creo que alguien ha sugerido llamarlo el puente de los retrasos. El nombre del proyecto es simplemente Quarto Ponte sul.
Hey! conozco a Calatrava. Tuve la suerte de visitar y ver en acción el puente levadizo en New Castle upon Tyne, es todo un espectaculo. Mira una foto aqui en su pico de elevación:

PD: Por cierto, donde van a dar a luz?
La técnica, definitivamente, ha mejorado. Y, ¿cómo están las chicas? dile a Roxy que mande fotos
Alex: Ha sido una tremenda suerte conocer de la obra de este arquitecto. Gracias por el link. El paseo por España ha estado muy bueno. En una semana estaré de vuelta.
Edjuly: Gracias. Con una cámara digital todo es más fácil que antes. Hay una previsualización inmediata y cada disparo es mucho más económico. Espero que la técnica siga mejorando.
Las chicas están muy bien y se aproximan nuevas fotos barriguísticas.
