Altas Entropía #Madrid - Jacobo Gª Germán (ed.)

#Madrid

The present catalogue comes with the sixth montage at La Casita Azul in the Centro Cibeles and is the third publication in the life of this pavilion which, despite its small dimensions, is at present the only space entirely dedicated to architectural exhibitions in Madrid. Until now the program of La Casita Azul has alternated the exhibition of different architecture studios with the revision of issues related to Madrid, its history and urban image.

Atlas Entropía #Madrid belongs to the latter category, the exhibition corresponding to this sixth edition. An exhibition that proposes collecting, in a limited number of emblematic buildings in Madrid, the traces of deterioration and the passing of time on them and the way in which, throughout the years, the appropriation that is implied in their use or continued uses and often unexpected exercises in architecture, have given rise to complex situations. Situations whose contingencies, imperfections, and distance from the ideal, initial, state that was conceived for these buildings in architecture, need to be defended here as a positive value.
