La exposición reúne una selección de proyectos de uso sociocultural que se están considerando, que están siendo diseñados o están en construcción en este momento, y que muestran un esbozo parcial del futuro de Madrid: Centro de Arte Dos de Mayo de la Oficina Para la Innovación Política, el Museo del Palacio el Capricho de Cuarq Arquitectos, la Colección SOLO del Estudio Herreros, el Espacio Mahou de Héctor Fernández Elorza y GRIGRI Pixel de Enorme Estudio. Los proyectos se exponen a través de una revisión de los métodos utilizados para representar el pensamiento arquitectónico, donde coexisten nuevas formas de representación en formato digital - como representaciones, visualizaciones y videos - y las habilidades arquitectónicas tradicionales - Dibujos, memorias, diagramas y bocetos.
"In the context of the transformation process in which the city is located, these projects are expected to serve to create social ties, improve the public space and diversify the cultural offer", explains the curator Inés Caballero. "Thus, with this exhibition we want to show how, through both public and private initiatives, new uses are projected for existing buildings, spatial approaches are designed related to the programmatic and these new spaces are built."
The Concentrator of architecture series, city and thought can be followed through the digital platform www.concentrador.org that collects, connects and relates the contents of all samples of the project. Curated by Inés Caballero, it meets and gives visibility to contents, languages and hidden values on the architecture of the city of Madrid that exist in its historical archives, professional legacies, academic works, specialized publications and cultural catalogs. Since 2016 has presented the samples Emotional Architecture (photography and thought), Visible City (maps and technology) and Ciudad Decisiva (a reflection on the durability and uses of historic heritage buildings), closing the cycle with this exhibition.
