Abstract
La intervención y puesta en valor del monumento histórico Patio 29 del Cementerio General de Santiago es un ejemplo de cómo un proyecto de arquitectura —a través de su vocación, su estrategia y su forma— puede contribuir directamente a discusiones y procesos inconclusos que afectan a la sociedad completa, en este caso la chilena. Localizado en la zona más degradada del Cementerio General y realizado por un equipo de arquitectos jóvenes, este proyecto es una excepción en el panorama de la celebrada arquitectura contemporánea en Chile, la que lentamente deja de estar relegada a ser privilegio exclusivo de las clases dominantes.
Abstract
The intervention and valuation of the historical monument Patio 29 at the Cementerio General in Santiago is an example of how an architectural project – through its vocation, strategy and form – can contribute directly to discussions and unfinished processes that affect society as a whole, Chilean society in this case. Located in the most deteriorated area of the Cementerio General and made by a group of young architects, this project is an exception in the context of the celebrated contemporary Chilean architecture, which is slowly leaving its condition of exclusive privilege of the ruling class.
