Deconstructivist architecture & collage. Transdisciplinary project strategies of Gehry, Libeskind y Eisenman

Abstract

It has been repeatedly argued that deconstructivist projects are developed from strategies similar to those used in collage, where fragmenting, superimposing, interlocks are the points of contact between architectural discipline and artistic technique. From that point of confluence, two different lines of work diverge. One is developed by Gehry or Libeskind, where fragmentations and regrouping are identified from interlock heteroclite volumes. Another is carried out by Eisenman who, from a series of fictitious archaeological excavations, regroups fragments of stories or ruins of the place to be intervened through cartographic layers that are superimposed and articulate to conceive the building, especially the projects of the series Cities of Artificial Excavation. They are two different ways of incorporating collage resources in contemporary architectural production, and with an emphasis on deconstructivist architecture.
