Abstract
[Resumen] Ludwig Mies van der Rohe trasladó su experiencia como arquitecto al
aula, no solamente difundiendo su filosofía arquitectónica, sino también
haciendo que, en muchas ocasiones, los alumnos participaran en sus
propios procesos de búsqueda. Este artículo busca arrojar luz sobre la
figura de Vera Jansone, la primera mujer que se graduó en el programa de
posgrado del Illinois Institute of Technology bajo la dirección de Mies, en
1952, y su tesina fin de máster, oculta hasta ahora, titulada “An Art´s Club”.
El análisis se centra en los dos aspectos más importantes de la tesina fin
de máster de Jansone, la función y la estructura. El proyecto de Jansone no
solamente constituye la única aproximación a la tipología funcional de club
de arte bajo la supervisión de Mies, sino que además contiene un análisis
de las alternativas estructurales que hacen posible su construcción.
Considerando el número y el contenido de las tesinas de posgrado que
versan centros relacionados con el arte, se postula que la tesis de Jansone
representa una parte fundamental del proceso de búsqueda hacia la
claridad estructural liderado por Mies, y que continuaría persiguiendo la
siguiente generación de arquitectos en IIT.
[Abstract] Ludwig Mies van der Rohe transferred his experience as an architect to the classroom, not only spreading his architectural philosophy, but also having students participate in his own search processes on many occasions. This article seeks to shine light on the figure of Vera Jansone, the first woman who graduated from the master’s program of the Illinois Institute of Technology under Mies, in 1952, and her master’s thesis, hidden until now, entitled “An Art´s Club”. The analysis will expand on the two most important aspects of Jansone’s thesis, function and structure. Jansone’s project is not only the sole approach to the functional typology of an Arts Club under Mies, it also contains an analysis of the structural alternatives that make its construction possible. In consideration of the number and content of graduate theses on art centers, it posits that Jansone’s thesis represents a fundamental part of the search process towards structural clarity led by Mies which continued to be pursued by the next generation of architects at IIT.
