Avenida Paulista: da formação à consolidação de um ícone da metrópole de São Paulo / Paulista Avenue: of construction to establishment of an icon of metropolis of São Paulo

Viviane Veiga Shibaki 12 June 2007 (has links)
A Avenida Paulista é considerada um dos maiores ícones de São Paulo, pois simboliza uma metrópole que se transformou significantemente dentro de um contexto de expansão urbana único, desde o último quartel do século XIX até final do século XX, sendo que a grande questão estabelecida é, como ela, praticamente desde sua inauguração em 1891, constituiu-se em uma imagem que se metamorfoseou em ícone e, mesmo com as mudanças que sofreu, acompanhando o desenvolvimento da metrópole, continuou sendo considerada como tal, diferente de outros ícones que, por motivos diversos, acabaram, de certa forma, por mudar seu grau de representatividade à medida que a aglomeração se expandia. Optamos pelo período, entre 1880 e 2007, que abrange desde um pouco antes de sua inauguração até a atualidade, pois acreditamos que este recorte histórico dê conta de mostrar os movimentos de transição da expansão urbana nos diferentes momentos históricos vividos na produção da metrópole, tendo a construção e afirmação desse ícone como elemento de instigante reflexão. Assim, nossa pesquisa privilegiou, além das fontes bibliográficas e iconográficas inerentes à expansão urbana de São Paulo, entrevistas que deram subsídios para compreender o processo de apropriação do espaço da Avenida Paulista. A pesquisa, então, trata da formação e consolidação de um ícone que representa a metrópole de São Paulo: a Avenida Paulista. / The Paulista Avenue is considered one of the greatest landmarks of São Paulo, because it represents a metropolis which changed significantly, from the last barracks of the 19th century to end of the 20th century, in an unique urban expansion context, and the great issue is how did it, since its inauguration in 1891, become a symbol which was metamorphosed into icon and, even when going through changes, was able to keep up with the city\'s development and continued being considered as such, different from other icons that, for several reasons, vanished because their degree of representativeness changed as the agglomeration expanded. We selected the period from 1880 to 2007, which goes from a little before its inauguration until the present time, due to the fact that we believed that this historical sample would be able to show the transition movements of the urban expansion in different moments in time throughout the city\'s development, and the construction and the establishment of that icon was the element of instigating reflection. Thus, our research was based on, besides the bibliographical sources and the inherent iconography of the urban expansion of São Paulo, interviews which helped us understand the appropriation process of the Paulista Avenue space. This research, then, is concerned with the construction and establishment of an icon that represents the metropolis of São Paulo: the Paulista Avenue.

Alléer i Östergötlands län : alléers utbredning och förändring mellan 1868-1877 och idag

Cardegård, Fanny January 2018 (has links)
Alléer är ett landskapselement som består av både natur och kultur och som planterats av människan av olika skäl. Sveriges alléer minskar och därför önskar Trafikverket och Riksantikvarieämbetet ta fram ett nationellt underlag för alléer. I Östergötland saknas en sammanställning av alléer under historisk tid därför är studiens syfte att undersöka alléers utbredning och kontinuitet i Östergötland från 1868 fram till idag. Resultatet visade att alléer i länet ökat idag jämfört med perioden 1868–1877. Alléer har störst förekomst i slättbygden. Alléer vid gods- samt bruk hade förändrats minst från perioden 1868–1877 till idag vilket troligen beror på att alléer vid gods och bruk redan var vanliga under perioden 1868–1877. Infartsalléer till gårdar har ökat i bygderna sedan perioden 1868–1877 vilket kan kopplas till skiftesreformerna som förändrade landskapet under slutet av 1800-talet och gav upphov till alléplanteringar i länet. Hos dagens alléer är alléer med blandade trädslag främst förekommande. / Avenues are a landscape element that consist of both nature and culture and that’s been planted by man for various reason. The Swedish avenues reduces because of that the Trafikverket and the Riksantikvarieämbetet wishes to develop a national basis for avenues. In Östergötland there is no compilation of avenues in historical time because of that the purpose of the study is to examine avenues spread and continuity in Östergötland from 1868 until today. Avenues has the greatest occurence in the flat country. Avenues belonging to manor or factory had changed least from the period 1868-1877 until today which is probably due to avenues belonging to manor or factory already was common under the period 1868-1877. Approach avenues leading to farms has increased in the districts since 1868-1877 which can be linked to the agriculture shiftreform that changed the landscape in the late 19th century and gave rise to avenue plantings in the county. Today’sk avenues are avenues witch mixed tree species uppermost occurring.

Documenting an Imperfect Past: Examining Tampa's Racial Integration through Community, Film, and Remembrance of Central Avenue

Bell, Travis R. 18 October 2017 (has links)
This research examines the Civil Rights Movement in Tampa, Florida through documentary film to recognize an imperfect past and visually reconstruct Central Avenue as a physical and Thirdspace site of remembrance located at an intersection of race and community. Motivated by an ethnographic approach and through community engagement, Tampa Technique: Rise, Demise, and Remembrance of Central Avenue is a 54-minute film that explores Central Avenue’s rise to prominence through segregation, its physical and symbolic demise as a racialized site of communal space, and how it is remembered through collective and public memory in the location it once occupied. Documentary film provides an engaging platform to present research in a thoughtful and provocative way to recover lost histories that can inform audiences about structural and systematic inequalities that remain in overt and covert ways. The purpose of this written document supplements the film and takes issues of privilege, reflexivity, and subjectivity into account to interrogate tensions of “self” and “other” encountered during the film’s production and to translate how a visual representation of Central Avenue developed and unfolded as a present form of community participation and intervention through remembrance. The entire documentary is not available online due to copyright restrictions. However, a three-minute documentary trailer is available on Vimeo.

Or there must be more to architecture

Jordan, Amy E. January 1985 (has links)
This is a study of a mixed-use project on Pennsylvania Avenue in Washington, D.C. The city of Washington has a unique sense of spaciousness and visual coherence as a result of the plan established tor the city by L'Entant. The 20th Century with the advent of the automobile and highrise construction techniques, has changed the conception of Washington from that envisioned by L’Enfant. The overlapping of radial and gridiron street systems has also created some conflicts within the city. During President Kennedy’s administration the government undertook the redevelopment of Pennsylvania Avenue. The goals and objectives of the Pennsylvania Avenue Development Corporation have influenced the program that was established for this project. The second major factor behind this project is the desire to create a building flexible enough to accept change gracefully. ln an urban context the ability to provide for "choice, change and growth"¹ allows a building to adapt to the inevitable transformations which occur around it. / Master of Architecture

"Templum [...] maximum et primarium est urbis ornamentum". Architecture et cadre urbain des églises dans les traités, les villes neuves et les aménagements urbains de l'Italie de la Renaissance (1450-1615) / "Templum [...] maximum et primarium est urbis ornamentum". Churches' Architecture and Urban Setting in Treatises, New Towns and Urban Planning in Italian Renaissance (1450-1615)

Petiot, Damien 17 December 2018 (has links)
Édifice emblématique de la Renaissance, l’église fut au coeur des réflexions théoriques des architectes italiens. Leur pensée, émanant directement du De architectura de Vitruve et de ses nombreuses éditions renaissantes, accorde également à la ville un rôle majeur dans l’élaboration d’une communauté humaine idéale. Il n’est donc guère étonnant que les deux thèmes, architecture religieuse et art urbain, se rencontrent dans la théorie comme dans la pratique pour magnifier la demeure divine. Toutefois, loin d’être mis à l’écart, le lieu de culte s’insère au sein d’un réseau viaire dense et complexe qu’il faut analyser soigneusement pour juger au mieux de la place accordée à ce type de monuments. Située à proximité d’autres symboles du pouvoir, tels que les palais seigneuriaux et communaux, l’église instaure un dialogue ambivalent avec ces derniers. De même, la place et/ou l’avenue qui la précèdent peuvent aussi bien contribuer à son isolement qu’à son intégration urbaine. Au fil des lectures, les concepts même d’architecture religieuse et de cadre urbain apparaissent donc polysémiques. Et l’analyse des constructions de la Renaissance ne clarifie en rien la situation. S’appuyant sur des sources variées (traités d’architecture, ouvrages d’humaniste, dessins, plans, etc.) le présent travail tend à interroger les valeurs multiples des lieux de culte de la Renaissance. Leur cadre urbain contribue-t-il nécessairement, comme l’affirme Alberti, à en faire les principaux embellissements de la cité ? / Symbolic edifice of the Renaissance, the church was fundamental in Italian architects’ theoretical reflexions. Their thought, based on Vitruvius’ De architectura and its numerous Renaissance editions, attributes also a great importance to the town in the development of an ideal human community. There’s nothing surprising about that both topics, religious architecture and town planning, meet each other in the theory as in the pratice to glorify the God’s house. However, not at all isolated, the place of worship is inserted in a concentrated urban network. Located close to other symbols of power, like seigneurial castle and local council, the church establishes an ambivalent dialogue with them. Similarly, the town square and the avenue can contribute to its isolated location or its urban integration. Therefore, the notions of religious architecture and town planning appear polysemous. Relying on varied sources (treatises, humanists’ writings, drawings, plans, etc.) the present thesis strives to examine the numerous values of Renaissance’s churches. Does their urban setting participate to make the church the city’s greatest and noblest ornament, as claimed by Alberti ?

Laisvės alėjos architektūrinės aplinkos vertinimas, remiantis šiuolaikinės paveldosaugos principais / Laisvės avenue architectural environment valuation according the modern principles of heritage protection

Reipaitė, Ieva 15 June 2011 (has links)
Istorinė architektūrinė ir urbanistinė Laisvės alėjos visuma yra susiformavusi per tris istorinius laikotarpius: gubernijos (1847-1918), tarpukario (1918-1940), sovietmečio (1940-1990). Kiekvieną šių laikotarpių atspindi skirtingos urbanistinės ir architektūrinės transformacijos, formuojančios įvairialypę Laisvės alėjos vizualinę aplinką. Jos unikalumas – tai nuolat kintantis bendras vaizdas. Tad šioje kaitoje svarbu yra išsaugoti ne tik unikaliausius kiekvienos epochos urbanistinius ir architektūrinius bruožus, bet ir nematerialųjį paveldą - bendras gatvės kultūrines ir dvasines prasmes, kaip esminius reikšminius šios vietos identifikatorius. Laisvės alėjoje šiuo metu į Kultūros vertybių registrą yra įtraukta 19 pavienių ir kompleksinių objektų. Tai sudaro mažiau kaip 1⁄5 visų joje esančių pastatų, formuojančių vientisą perimetrinį abiejų gatvės pusių užstatymą. Tad juridiškai įteisintos vertybės atspindi tik dalį Laisvės alėjos, kaip kultūrinės vertybės, verčių. Todėl šio darbo pirmame skyriuje, remiantis šiuolaikinės paveldosaugos dokumentais ir lyginant juos su LR paveldo apsaugos dokumentais, suformuojama platesnio pobūdžio vertinimo sistema, pagal kurią pastatai įvertinami urbanistinėje, fasadinėje, tūrinėje-erdvinėje ir socialinėje dimensijose, siekiant atskleisti jų tapatumo, kontekstualumo, architektūros meninę ir retumo vertes. Pritaikius šią vertinimo sistemą kiekvienam Laisvės alėją formuojančiam architektūriniam elementui, atsiskleidė ir dominuojančios visos... [toliau žr. visą tekstą] / Historic architectural and urbanistic entirety of Laisvės avenue had been formed over three historic periods: government (1847-1918), interwar period (1918-1940) and Soviet times (1940-1990). Each of these periods is reflected by distinct urbanitics and architectural transformations shaping mixed visual environment of Laisvės avenue. Its uniqueness lies in the overall view of constant change. Therefore, such change should preserve not only unique urbanistic and architectural features of each era, but also the intangible heritage – the general meanings of street culture and spirit, as essential and relevant identifiers of this site. There are 19 separate and complex objects from Laisvės avenue included in the Register of Cultural Values. This makes less than 1⁄5 of all the buildings located in the avenue, which form an integral perimetrical development of both street parts. Thus, legally enforced values reflect only a part of values of Laisvės avenue, as a cultural treasure. Given that, the first part of this paper, with reference to the documents of modern heritage protection and comparing them with those of the heritage protection of the Republic of Lithuania, creates a broader assessment system, on the basis of which the buildings are evaluated in the urbanistic, façade, volume-spatial dimensions in pursuance of their identity, contextuality values, as well as artistic and rarity values of architecture. Upon the application of the given system on each architectural element... [to full text]

O estudo do lugar sob o enfoque da geografia humanista: um lugar chamado Avenida Paulista / The study of place under humanistic geography focus: a place called Paulista Avenue

Gonçalves, Leandro Forgiarini de 01 February 2011 (has links)
O lugar é uma das mais importantes categorias espaciais da Geografia. Assim como a própria concepção de espaço, a de lugar se inscreve no escopo de diferentes análises geográficas; mas, é à Geografia Humanista que a categoria de lugar está fortemente relacionada. O enfoque geográfico humanista coloca o lugar em situação de destaque, ao tratar sobre a relação afetiva do homem com o espaço e a pluralidade das experiências que transformam este espaço em lugar. Entende-se, a partir dessa perspectiva, que o lugar é uma realização essencialmente sentimental e que são as vivências pessoais e as experiências íntimas que lhe atribuem densidade. Nesse aspecto, o geógrafo humanista Yi-Fu Tuan adota o neologismo topofilia, a fim de melhor caracterizar o amor humano pelos lugares. Para o homem, os laços topofílicos fazem transparecer um conjunto de sentimentos entranhados: são memórias, nostalgias, afinidades e valores que subsistem como lembranças do passado, realizações do presente e/ou futuras ações. Para a Geografia, a topofilia é um sopro de Humanismo que está amparado pela concepção do espaço simbólico, relacional e afetivo, e que tem o tempo como categoria intrínseca. A Geografia Humanista reconhece que os lugares dos homens são tão diversos quanto os seus sonhos. Aliás, o ser humano não cessa de sonhar com lugares que dêem espessura e significado à sua existência pessoal. Esses lugares inscrevem-se na intimidade ou na amplidão, pois, assim como os homens, resguardam dentro de si a imensidão e a particularidade. Do mesmo modo que a rua e o bairro são espaços acolhedores e pessoais, uma cidade ou um país também são capazes de comportar tais sentimentos. Por sinal, a urbe engendra apropriadamente a máxima do lugar dos sonhos, porque oferece múltiplas possibilidades de realização pessoal. Os lugares urbanos são espaços de intenso envolvimento, deflagradores de aspirações, conquistas, amores e ódio. Nesse panorama, a Avenida Paulista, um dos lugares-símbolo da cidade de São Paulo, surge como exemplo do quão sentimental pode ser um lugar. Seja por conta de sua importância para a história dessa metrópole, seja por sua relação com a vida dos paulistanos nos dias atuais, a Paulista representa o sonho de um lugar ideal. A Avenida Paulista é um lugar chamado pelo mesmo nome que dá ao povo do estado de São Paulo um sentimento de unidade. Entretanto, não é apenas pelo fato de serem homônimos que se pode dizer que a Paulista é o paulista, e sim porque ambos abrigam um teor de humanidade que lhes é absolutamente análogo. Ora, o lugar, a mais humana das categorias geográficas, reflete toda a diversidade das ações praticadas pelo homem no espaço. De modo que se pode afirmar que lugares são pessoas, porque estas são cada um dos lugares que realizam durante a vida / Place is one of the most important spatial categories of Geography. As well as the conception of space, the conception of place fits the scope of different geographic analyses; however, the category of place is strongly related to Human Geography. The Human Geographic focus puts place in a prominent situation, by dealing with the affective relationship between man and space and the plurality of experiences which transform this space into place. From this perspective, it can be understood that place is essentially a sentimental realisation and that the personal, intimate experiences are what gives place its density. Thus, human geographer Yi-Fu Tuan adopts the neologism \"topophilia\" in order to better characterize the human love for places. For men, topophiliac ties bring up a set of deep feelings: these are memories, nostalgia, affinity and values which stand as reminders of the past, of achievements of the present, and/or of future actions. For Geography, topophilia is a breath of Humanism that is supported by the conception of symbolic, relational and affective space, having time as an intrinsic category. Human Geography recognizes that mens places are as diverse as their dreams. Moreover, human beings do not cease to dream of places which give consistency and meaning to their personal existence. These places fall into vastness or intimacy, because like men, places preserve both immensity and particularity within. Just as the street and the neighborhood are cozy and personal spaces, a city or a country are also able to carry such feelings.Incidentally, the city properly consists the place of dreams axiom, seeing as it offers many possibilities for personal fulfillment. Urban places are spaces of intense involvement, trigger of aspirations, achievements, love and hate. In this scenario, the Paulista Avenue, one of the symbolic places of the city of São Paulo, emerges as an example of how a place can be sentimental. Whether it is because of its importance to the history of this metropolis, or because of its relationship to the life of the paulistanos nowadays, Paulista Avenue represents the dream of an ideal place. Paulista Avenue is a place called by the same name that gives the people from the state of São Paulo a sense of unity. However, not only is it for the fact that they are homonyms that it can be said that Paulista is the paulista, but also because both convey a quite similar level of humanity. Therefore, the place, the most human of geographic categories, reflects all the diversity of actions taken by man in space. Thus, it would not be an exaggeration to say that places are people, because the latter are each place that they realize throughout life.

To this end, aspects of the Paulista Avenue trajectory are presented from its inauguration (1891) until the 1950s and 1960s, when the verticalization process of the area was intensified, for the conclusive analysis, space and its appropriations are presented as a basis. The presence of literary manifestations is demonstrated permeating the course of urban history, with emphasis on authors such as M?rio de Andrade and Ignacio de Loyola Brand?o. As a spatial clipping, the research specifically emphasizes the section of the Avenue where the Trianon Park (1892), the Baronesa de Arary Building (1954) and the MASP (1968), considering in the place, the existence of three temporalities. From the analysis of the urban layers, marked in space-time, the essence and identity were examined through the images presented by the urban occupation during this period. Following an interdisciplinary proposal, the elements of literary narrative were considered as references to understand the transformations of space, seeking to find echoes in a dialectical relationship, in which reality writes fiction and fiction reflects the yearnings of society in a given time-space cut. As a theoretical reference, the following authors were used: Alfredo Bosi, in the literary analyzes, Bernardo Secchi in urban studies and Gaston Bachelard in the approaches related to the philosophy of space. / A presente disserta??o tem como proposta examinar a congru?ncia de temporalidades distintas nos espa?os urbanos e apresentar a Literatura como uma ferramenta de aux?lio no entendimento da hist?ria da cidade e instrumento de aproxima??o das narrativas m?ltiplas. Para isto, s?o pontuados aspectos da trajet?ria da Avenida Paulista, desde sua inaugura??o (1891) at? as d?cadas de 1950/1960, quando se intensificou o processo de verticaliza??o da ?rea, apresentando-se como base para a an?lise conclusiva, o espa?o e suas apropria??es contempor?neas. A presen?a de manifesta??es liter?rias ? demonstrada permeando o percurso da hist?ria urbana, com destaque para autores como M?rio de Andrade e Ign?cio de Loyola Brand?o. Como recorte espacial, a pesquisa enfatiza especificamente o trecho da Avenida onde se localiza o Parque Trianon (1892), o Edif?cio Baronesa de Arary (1954) e o MASP (1968), considerando no local, a exist?ncia de tr?s temporalidades. A partir da an?lise das camadas urbanas, marcadas no espa?o-tempo, realizou-se o exame de sua ess?ncia e identidade atrav?s das imagens apresentadas pela ocupa??o urbana no decorrer deste per?odo. Seguindo assim, uma proposta interdisciplinar, foram considerados os elementos da narrativa liter?ria como refer?ncias para compreender as transforma??es do espa?o, buscando-se encontrar ecos em uma rela??o dial?tica, na qual a realidade escreve a fic??o e a fic??o reflete os anseios da sociedade em determinado corte de tempo-espa?o. Como refer?ncia te?rica, os seguintes autores foram utilizados em destaque: Alfredo Bosi, nas an?lises liter?rias, Bernardo Secchi nos estudos urban?sticos e Gaston Bachelard nas abordagens relativas ? filosofia do espa?o.
