Los sueños dibujados de Casto Fernández-Shaw. Búsqueda de una arquitectura imaginada entre el futurismo y la utopía.

En 1949 el arquitecto Casto Fernández-Shaw realiza un viaje de dos meses a diversas ciudades de EEUU (Los Ángeles, Nueva York, Washington...), y según sus propias palabras: "Confieso que me encontré en mi elemento. Por una parte veía realizados... mis sueños... En mi álbum de imágenes impactantes ocupa un puesto de honor la del helicóptero con la correspondencia aterrizando en la terraza de la Casa de Correos de Los Ángeles, como yo deseaba para mi Estación de Enlace madrileña". El proyecto, no realizado, al que se refiere Casto, está fechado en 1933 (reformado en 1936), adelantándose en su imaginación casi veinte años a lo que después visitó con admiración. Casto Fernández-Shaw (1896-1978), titulado en 1919, puede considerarse posiblemente el discípulo más cercano al arquitecto gallego Antonio Palacios, pero con un lenguaje personal contemporáneo. Como sugiere Miguel Ángel Baldellou: "Fernández-Shaw es capaz de reinterpretar y dar salida en forma de vanguardia a una tradición sustentada por Palacios de forma magistral." Así pues, sus referentes se mueven entre lo quimérico y el pragmatismo racionalista de principios del siglo XX, con importantes influencias de la arquitectura regionalista e historicista de sus maestros, Aníbal Álvarez, Modesto López Otero y, sobre todo, Antonio Palacios. En sus dibujos de ciudades aerostáticas y acorazadas, de garajes radiales, de torres espectáculo, de monumentos a la ciencia, de autogiródromos, casas aerotransportadas y hangares aerodinámicos..., descubrimos a un arquitecto que emprende un camino desde el futurismo más cercano a las ensoñaciones de una ciudad industrial dominada por la tecnología hasta una utopía basada en la creencia del triunfo de la civilización, las grandes conquistas de la humanidad y la paz universal. El objetivo de esta comunicación es analizar la búsqueda de Casto de una respuesta formal a su viaje interior hacia la utopía a través de las vanguardias figurativas de comienzos del siglo XX. Estudiaremos sus proyectos no construidos a través de sus dibujos, que representan grandes edificios futuristas, descontextualizados del entorno, obras másicas y monumentalistas de fuerte contenido simbólico. Y los compararemos con otras obras no materializadas de arquitectos contemporáneos como Sant¿Elia, Tchernikov, Tatlin, Poelzig... que tuvieron mayor o menor influencia en su carrera

Caracterización de los depósitos miocenos de la isla de Nueva Tabarca (Alicante) y su empleo como material de construcción en el patrimonio local

El presente trabajo muestra la caracterización en detalle de la secuencia estratigráfica de los depósitos miocenos de la isla de Nueva Tabarca, el empleo de estos materiales en el patrimonio arquitectónico de la isla y su comportamiento frente la degradación. En la serie miocena, a grandes rasgos, se definen tres tramos. El tramo inferior, rico en clastos dolomíticos, muestra una alternancia de arenitas y calcarenitas. El tramo intermedio corresponde a una sucesión de niveles de calcirruditas con laminación cruzada cuya parte superior está representada por un nivel de grandes bioclastos, rodolitos y arenitas de grano fino. El comienzo del último tramo está marcado por la presencia de varias superficies arenosas más litificadas sobre las que se sitúa un banco de arenitas de grano fino y laminación paralela. Si bien las canteras extraían sillares de todas estas litofacies, existe una mayor extracción de los últimos niveles de la serie. Estas rocas presentan una durabilidad moderada-baja, degradándose fácilmente mediante arenización, escamación y/o alveolización.

La Nueva Teoría Estratégica y sus desarrollos en los ámbitos comunicacionales

Cuando en el año 2008, con ocasión del Congreso Internacional Brand Trends, organizado por la Universidad CEU Cardenal Herrera en Valencia, me comentó el profesor Rafael Alberto Pérez cómo había visto la aplicación de la Nueva Teoría Estratégica en las diferentes conferencias de los profesionales de comunicación comercial y corporativa allí reunidos, tomé conciencia de que efectivamente la NTE se estaba ya aplicando en el campo de la Publicidad y el Marketing, validando así el modelo o paradigma. Y por otro lado me reafirmé en mi consideración de que el proceso tecnológico de digitalización de la comunicación ha sido el magma sobre el cual la NTE ha podido avanzar en su postulado relacional. A partir de entonces seguí su consejo sobre la necesidad de realizar un cambio en “la mirada” de cómo contemplar el mundo y hacerlo rompiendo con la mirada heredada de un mundo fragmentado, con causalidad lineal y estático y pasar a una visión compleja, fluida y caótica (Pérez y Massoini, 2009: 137-142).
