Abstract
La relación entre teoría y práctica ha adquirido configuraciones históricas que hoy nos permiten dejar de entenderla unívocamente. Los grados de autonomía que en determinados episodios una ha adquirido respecto de la otra nos obligan a reformular la noción que entiende que la práctica es la materialización de la teoría. En su autonomía, la teoría tiene su propia materialidad y es ese peso específico lo que la ancla a un momento determinado, a una subjetividad particular y a un lugar concreto.
Abstract
Two recent works that form part of the incipient “Wood urbanism” have been analysed: Centro Cultural Arauco, by the Elton Léniz office (2016), and Biblioteca de Constitución, by Sebastián Irarrázaval (2015). Beyond their specific value, both projects are pioneers in the construction of a material culture that gives a new meaning to wood. While the cultural centre in Arauco aims at defining its language through this material, the library in Constitución builds its own spatiality from a timber structure mounted on firewalls or concrete demarcations. Recognizing the “spirit of the place”, both projects contribute to the consolidation of wood as a strategic territorial project.
