Full textDans Louis I. Kahn – L'histoire de l'architecture comme médiation, on explore le travail de l'un des architectes le plus actifs du 20e siècle. Il a été reconnu par les intellectuels pour son rôle d'architecte et de penseur moderne, ainsi que pour ses recherches en histoire et ses références aux œuvres historiques importantes. En étudiant Kahn et son éducation, sa formation en architecture, ses écrits, lectures, voyages, contacts personnels, le contexte dans lequel il travaillait, en plus d'examiner ses dessins personnels et deux de ses projets de design, on comprend son approche de l'architecture sous plusieurs angles. En décrivant le contexte dans lequel Kahn a été éduqué et dans lequel il a pratiqué son métier, la thèse traite d'importants aspects de la pensée et pratique architecturale auxquels Kahn a été exposé, dévoilant ainsi les motivations derrière sa quête philosophique unique. En examinant les dessins de Kahn, la manière dont il incarne les sites historiques qu'il a vus durant ses voyages devient apparent. À travers l'étude du matériel d'archives, la trace des références architecturales que Kahn a étudiées devient visible. Ainsi, dans ses dessins et la conception architecturale pour le Dominican Motherhouse de St. Catherine de Ricci, Media, Pennsylvanie (1965-1969, jamais construit) et le Hurva Synagogue dans la vieille ville de Jérusalem (1967-1974, jamais construit), les références poétiques aux œuvres historiques que sont ses projets sont clairement illustrées, tout en soulignant des concepts herméneutiques et phénoménologiques en relation avec la perception, la mémoire et la compréhension du passé. Par conséquent, à travers Kahn, cette thèse examinera le débat contextuel concernant l'usage de références historiques dans l'architecture moderne du 18ième siècle jusqu'au postmodernisme, et abordera l'importance de la continuité des références dans l'âge de fragmentation. Louis I. Kahn – L'histoire de l'architecture comme moyen de médiation dévoilera le complexe potentiel dans l'étude de la tradition et l'histoire de l'architecture moderne. Elle éclairera les efforts acceptables dans la pensée et la pratique de l'architecture qui intègrent des références historiques et promeuvent l'authenticité et le progrès – deux éléments fondamentaux de l'expression architecturale poétique et innovatrice.

Full textThe present dissertation is as an analytical study about the work of architect Louis I. Kahn, focusing on its spatial quality, as funded in the interaction between space and people in motion. Three buildings were selected as case studies in order to capture the evolutionary synthesis of space conception happened during Kahn’s career. Each building was submitted to an empirical scrutiny based upon the spatial experience of a moving observer, using a set of tools named as the “method of the observer”. The buildings investigated are put in relation with other Kahn’s buildings, so allowing the development of an analytical discourse embracing since his first works, in the 1930’s, until his death, in 1974. The analysis registers the performance of the buildings in terms of their legibility and their functionality, both understood as qualities inherent to space and the way they shape the user’s experience, so relating them to the building’s spatial conception. The dissertation intends to enlarge the understanding of the findings by considering the evolution of Kahn’s theoretical work, so bringing cause-effect connections between theory and the registered phenomena in the concrete reality of buildings. Eventually, this study aims to enlarge the understanding of the link between Kahn’s work and the architectural environment of the time, so exploring the influences he received and contributions he gave, especially concerning the evolution of modern architecture.

Full textThis thesis studies the successive positions of Kahn with regard to the question of structure. It is an analysis of what appears as a true work of investigation, developped over thirty years of pratice and experience (1944-1974). Documents that allow to grasp Kahn's implications in contemporary debates and his attitude toward history, his working drawings, study models and buildings are examined as testimonies of a work of architecture as well as of an intellectual undertaking. Centered on the comparative analysis of designs and of variants or variations of their themes, the research aims to demonstrate how the theoretical approach shifts and is enriched by continuous exchange with engineers and collaborators. Louis I. Kahn's working practice, studied under the light of the question of structure, reveals in this way the intellectual process of the architect

Kahn's genre of travel sketches offers us a visual basis to map his philosophical meandering. This thesis addresses the sketches produced from Kahn's voyages around the Mediterranean in 1950-51 and 1959 with an aim to understanding the premises that underlie them. During the trips, Kahn conjectured in his graphic oeuvre a dialogical method with the built forms of antiquity. On the one hand, he sought answers to his architectural and epistemological questions to these buildings; at another level, he re-contextualized the buildings in an imagined landscape that would in tum inform his imperatives. The sketches also permit an interesting theoretical commentary as they parallel Kahn's emergence into active architectural career in the fifties. At first encounter, some of them seem to be perplexing, but once extended into the context in which Kahn operated, they reveal an interwoven terrain of concepts that would continuously flower. There is no doubt that in his travel sketches Kahn was fighting a protracted battle about his architecture and that he benefited from the buildings of the past--but mostly at an epistemological level. Kahn raised questions on architecture that could have not been addressed by a formal retrieval of history. In that sense Kahn's travel sketches reappraise and re-propose the lessons of history.
