Pier Paolo Tamburelli: O Bramanteju (Teoretska praksa arhitekture pri delu)

Predavanje obravnava delo italijanskega renesančnega arhitekta Donata Bramanteja in s svojo interpretacijo predlaga možen program za sodobno arhitekturno prakso. Pokaže, da Bramante ponuja izhodišče za zamisel o sodobni teoriji prostora, za razmislek o odnosu med arhitekturo in politiko ter za pogled nazaj – brez nostalgije ali prezira – na tradicijo zahodnega klasicizma.

Predavanje, ki izhaja iz razprave o razlikah v Bramantejevem delu v Milanu in Rimu, izpostavlja posebnosti njegove arhitekture, zlasti v primerjavi z arhitekturo njegovega predhodnika Leona Battiste Albertija in naslednika Andree Palladia. To pa odpira nove možnosti za vrednotenje njegovih prostorskih eksperimentov ter za to, da iz Bramantejeve abstrakcije in ločitve oblike od funkcije izpeljemo prenovljeno teorijo prostora za sodobno arhitekturo. Takšna teorija bi lahko celo spodbudila novo politično razumevanje klasicizma in oblikovala model za javno arhitekturo, ki bi bil danes morda lahko veljavnejši kot kadarkoli prej.

The lecture considers the work of the Italian Renaissance architect Donato Bramante and through this reappraisal suggests a possible agenda for current architectural practice. Bramante, lecture argues, offers an excellent starting point to imagine a contemporary theory of space, to reflect on the relationship between architecture and politics, and to look back—with neither nostalgia nor contempt—at the tradition of Western classicism.

Starting from a discussion of the difference in the work of Bramante in Milan (1481–1499) and Rome (1499–1514), Tamburelli highlights the peculiarities of Bramante’s architecture, especially in comparison to that of his predecessor Leon Battista Alberti and successor Andrea Palladio. This in turn opens up new possibilities for appreciating his spatial experiments, and to derive from Bramante’s abstraction and disassociation of form from function a revised theory of space for contemporary architecture. Such a theory might even advance a newfound political understanding of classicism, and a model—perhaps more valid now than ever before—for a public architecture.

Tamburelli je doslej poučeval na inštitutu Berlage v Rotterdamu, na TUM v Münchnu, na FAUP v Portu, na harvardski GSD, na univerzi Illinois v Chicagu, na milanski politehniki, trenutno pa vodi katedro za teorijo oblikovanja na TU Dunaj. Bil je eden od ustanoviteljev in urednikov revije San Rocco. Leta 2022 je pri založbi MIT izdal knjigo On Bramante ter leta 2023 pri založbi Mack delo Grundkurs: What is Architecture About?
