The space of art in the modern city creation

Authors

Abstract

The author of this article maintains that art plays an anticipatory role as a design reference in the context of the creation of urban space, signposting as it were through its significant relevance the path towards the building of a specific urba n scene in terms of the sum total of things previous to it, this being held in the article to be of signal importance to the development of contemporary urban space. The interpretation of this compendium or involuntary record of things previous, of these pre-emptive gestures dictates a necessary universe of discourse for the designer. Memory and gesture synthesize this symbolic store house that is a modern city be it ever so multiform and disparate in its contents, whilst, at the same time, allowing for a perception within its proper episodic space of that which is most germain and determining within this and that which is irrelevant as well, these opposed considerations thus leading to the possibility of a truly coherent notion on which present and future construction design can be based
