The Department of Architecture and Construction offered a perspective that, although not politically radical enough to exceed the margins of the disciplinary, aimed at expanding the influence of architecture on its ability to reconcile different factors and actors in a heterogeneous and complex context. The Taller Arica was presented as a laboratory within which the diverse social and political visions could be combined on a concrete level and constitute a contribution to the institutions in charge of urban and regional development. From the study and survey of this reality, possible actions were understood both in the city and in the immediate region. If the actions in the city were key to the multi-scale reading and the development of a properly architectural view of the urban condition, the region opened up the possibility of a confrontation with heritage. En el contexto convulsionado de inicios de los años setenta, la Escuela de Arquitectura de la Pontificia Universidad Católica –en ese entonces dividida en distintos departamentos– enfrentó la enseñanza en relación con las condiciones de una realidad social que se buscaba transformar. El Departamento de Arquitectura de Obras, ofreció una perspectiva que, si bien no era politicamente radical como para quedar fuera de los márgenes disciplinares, tenía como objetivo ampliar la influencia de la arquitectura en su capacidad de conciliar distintos factores y actores en un contexto heterogéneo y complejo. El Taller Arica se presentó como un laboratorio dentro del cual las visiones sociales y políticas, podrían conjugarse en un plano concreto y constituir un aporte a las instituciones encargadas del desarrollo urbano y regional. A partir del estudio y levantamiento de dicha realidad se entendieron las posibles acciones tanto en la ciudad como en la región inmediata. Si las actuaciones en la ciudad resultaron claves para la lectura multiescalar y el desarrollo de una mirada propiamente arquitectónica de la condición urbana, la región abrió la posibilidad de un enfrentamiento con el patrimonio. ark:/s22508112/2cmp6jedj Universidad Nacional de Mar del Plata.
