Conversando con… JUAN NAVARRO BALDEWEG

Résumé

Architecture as a connection between the locus, the object and the subject. Juan Navarro Baldeweg’s architecture is unmistakably permeated by his plastic work; these pages invite us to dive into these contaminating relationships between the different disciplines which he works on. In his architecture, Navarro tries to make evident, beyond the necessary objectification of its own physical limits, the relations between architecture and place –a pre-existence–, the inhabitant –a subject– and in which way the latter’s perception of architecture –a phenomenology– determines how it should be understood. Juan Navarro is one of those exceptions that take us back to the times of Humanism because of his versatile production and the way in which a trans-disciplinary relationships network is woven enriching all his work and, particularly, his architecture. It cannot be understood without having a notion of these nested relationships between the different constellations of his production.
