Lecture by Langarita-Navarro architects at the Trade Fair Palace
The National Gallery in Prague, the Golden Ratio, and the Embassy of Spain cordially invite you on Thursday, January 8, 2015, at 6:30 PM to the presentation of the architectural studio Langarita-Navarro Arquitectos, holders of the Special Recognition for Emerging Architects of the Mies van der Rohe Award 2013. Accepting the invitation to present are María Langarita and Víctor Navarro, who will introduce the winning project.
Moderated by Radomíra Sedláková, architecture theorist and curator of the National Gallery in Prague.
Where: Korzo Veletržního paláce, admission: free, no reservation required.
Before the presentation, we cordially invite you to a guided tour of the exhibition of the European Prize for Contemporary Architecture – Mies van der Rohe Award with Radomíra Sedláková. The tour starts at 4:30 PM.
Where: 1st floor of the Veletržní palác, standard price 80 CZK / reduced 50 CZK (the price includes entrance fee and expert commentary). No reservation required.
The duo of young Spanish architects María Langarita and Víctor Navarro have been collaborating since 2005 as the studio Langarita-Navarro arquitectos based in Madrid. Their portfolio includes residential, commercial, and cultural projects, with the latest being the completion of Medialab-Prado, a center for digital art in Madrid. The studio's work has been showcased at various exhibitions, including the Venice Architecture Biennale in 2008 and 2014.
During their time on the global architecture scene, the authors have received numerous awards, most recently the Young Architect of the Year Award 2014. Among their most prestigious accolades is the Special Recognition for Emerging Architect of the Mies van der Rohe Award 2013. The jury recognized their realized proposal for the Red Bull Music Academy in Madrid from 2011.
The Red Bull Music Academy (RBMA) is a traveling music festival that moves to a different location each year. In 2011, it was set to take place in Tokyo, but due to the aftermath of an earthquake, it had to be quickly relocated elsewhere. The chosen venue for the festival was a creative space known as Matadero Madrid, situated in a Madrid industrial warehouse complex from the early 20th century. The construction project was conceived as a temporary structure with the main criteria of adaptability and reversibility, allowing it to be partially or completely rebuilt over time without significant effort or cost. Under these circumstances and in a state of emergency, work began on the infrastructure that would meet the precise technical and acoustic needs of the festival while also enhancing and enriching a series of extremely intense artistic encounters to take place among the participating musicians.
RBMA at Matadero Madrid launched programming for a new space dedicated to audio creation and research, called Nave de Música. The design followed five main criteria: deadlines and budget, preservation of the warehouse building, program requirements, acoustics, and transience. The result is a project that has developed inside the building in the form of a fragmented urban structure, creating changing relations between the existing environment and performance, proximity and independence, thus offering the community of space users unexpected stages for their activities.
