Il saggio indaga il nesso tra materia e materiale. In architettura, infatti, l’uso di un materiale richiede un dispiegamento di forze per la trasformazione di un dato primario in costituenti secondari compatibili con l’uso e la costruzione. L’architetto interpreta le potenzialità di molteplici relazioni consequenziali, dando forma e sostanza poetica a uno sdoppiamento della materia in materiale come soggetti di una rappresentazione unitaria. La scelta di un materiale, quindi, oltre a costruire l’architettura, qualifica le finalità di un’accoglienza allineando le caratteristiche di una poiesis direttamente connessa all’uso del materiale come elemento necessario e insostituibile della composizione. Nel tempo corrente, rimane necessario tenere ferme, nella scelta del materiale di un’architettura, le priorità dettate da una ragione interna all’edificio all’interno delle gerarchie disposte dal tema compositivo. Una scelta che, riportando quelle intenzioni di adeguatezza già evocate da György Lukács per l’architettura, sa comporre una coesione tra spazio, misura e materiali, uniti nella definizione di quel valore, più volte evocato da Mies, capace di elevare la costruzione oltre il suo stesso uso.

Abstract
The essay investigates the connection between matter and material. In architecture, in fact, the use of a material requires a deployment of forces for the transformation of a primary data into secondary constituents compatible with use and construction. The architect interprets the potential of multiple consequential relationships, giving shape and poetic substance to a doubling of matter into material as subjects of a unitary representation. The choice of a material, therefore, in addition to building the architecture, qualifies the purposes of a welcome by aligning the characteristics of a poiesis directly connected to the use of the material as a necessary and irreplaceable element of the composition. In the current dimension, it is necessary to keep firm, in the choice of the material of an architecture, the priorities dictated by a reason internal to the building within the hierarchies arranged by the compositional theme. A choice which, bringing back those intentions of adequacy already evoked by György Lukács for architecture, knows how to compose a cohesion between space, measure and materials, united in the definition of that value, evoked several times by Mies, capable of elevating the construction beyond its own use.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
