Alvaro Siza. Viagem sem Programa
|
|
August 13, 2012
“Álvaro Siza. Viagem sem Programa” is the title of the collateral event that Fondazione Querini Stampalia will be hosting from August 29 to November 11, 2012 (admission is free of charge). The exhibition is exclusively dedicated to the most personal aspects of the Portuguese architect Álvaro Siza – one the leading players in the international design scene – who was recently awarded the Golden Lion for Lifetime Achievement at the13th International Architecture Exhibition – la Biennale di Venezia. In addition to shedding light on Siza’s extraordinary eidetic memory, the exhibition underscores the power of the drawings (chiefly portraits) created during his youth, his many trips abroad for work purposes, recent dinner parties with friends and moments “free from the burden of work” populated with memoirs, views and ironical stances accumulated with the passing of time. They all contribute to giving form to his way of living and conceiving life.
