workshop introduction
The Alentejo
and the Alqueva region have recently constituted a
case study for few design studios (Master and Ph.D. level) that took place at
the Department of Architecture of Évora University.
Collaboration with other Universities focusing collaborative research upon the Alqueva landscape, have also taken place: with the Accademia di Architettura di Mendrizio and with the Department of Landscape and
Environmental Planning, UCBerkeley. The event that is
now proposed in a form of an International Workshop with conferences and an
optional previous field trip in Portugal enhances preceding collaboration with
the IUAV and the partner Institutions of the network. The success of the
VENEZIA Workshop realized in September at the IUAV with an attendance of 80
students created the seed for further research in the theme of tourism,
landscape, and marginal city regions.
workshop programme
Territoriality is the perception
we have of the power exercised by an individual or a group in a given
geographical area. It is more cultural than physical. In the same territory,
there may be many territorialities. The workshop enhances the discussion in how
the notion of territoriality can be embodied with a new tourism praxis in a territoy of low density as is the case of the Alqueva region in Alentejo.
The Architectural programme
proposes the development of an architectural concept and project for the design
and realization of an observation, control and interpretation centre of the Alqueva region and dam construction. The client is the EDIA
firm, the official Alqueva management company.
Associated to this program, there is the need to design a small hotel in an
area just close to the dam.
Alqueva is today seen as a
landscape that needs to be broadly studied, not only as a cultural phenomenon,
a product of history and aesthetics, but as well as a territory that may
suggests new forms of habitation and of permanence within its boundaries, and
in relationship with a larger network of territories that may share similar
values. All this should be thought in the dynamics of “tourism” in
order that the concept of “tourism” itself could be reinvented and
enhanced by the poetics of architecture.
Despite this program, the goal of
the Workshop, along with the conferences from invited speakers is to reflect
upon the challenges that this landscape poses, and if possible to articulate it
with other similar regions. Architecture and architectural strategies are the
intellectual methodologies to achieve that.
the goal
The Alqueva
dam became the largest artificial lake in Western Europe with its 250 square
kilometres after the filling of it new water shed in 2002. Its construction
begun in 1976 and today constitutes an important infrastructure for water
distribution in the Alentejo arid region. However,
what remains today of the previous memories of this area is a sense of
incompleteness, an incomplete trace of property but also a challenge to
architectural thought to rethink and to reconstruct the place identify at light
of contemporary needs for a cultural sustainable heritage. Touristic practices
can no longer be seen as isolated cases of success particularly in a south
European context which holds a shared notion of history.
the region
The Alentejo
region is one of the best-preserved landscapes and one of the least populated areas
of southern Europe, making this territory a unique venue. Its vast open country
is home both to tradition and contemporary culture. The sense of beauty is
found almost everywhere, from whitewashed villages, craggy outcrops to
undulating plains peppered with cork oak and olive trees. It occupies almost
one-third of the area of Portugal, with an Atlantic border of 182km and other
with Spain where the Guadiana river flows.
the location for the workshop project
The two areas chosen for the
development of the workshop are located at the nearest of the Alqueva dam. The two areas should be seen as part of a
larger system that is currently managed by the official Alqueva
management company, EDIA. The challenge is to unify the area responding to the
great visibility that this space has been having by foreigner tourists and
nationals. Located in a splendid natural setting, the EDIA company wishes to
develop an Observation and Dam Control Point with all facilities including a
museum that could illustrate the evolution of the construction as well as, to
monitor the impact of the dam in the cultural and social landscape.
The other area is located just
two kilometres away in a gentle peninsula just facing the water level of the
Guadiana river. The design should encompass an hotel accommodation and
rehabilitation of an old farm house located at the site.
