ojs-article-9412021-07-13T14:42:08Z Vilamajó – Le Corbusier. Montevideo – Nueva York. 1929 – 1947 Vilamajó - Le Corbusier. Montevideo - New York. 1929 - 1947 de Sierra Brandón, Arq. Fernando Javier Based on documentary sources found inside two suitcases belonging to Uruguayan architect Julio Vilamajó, research is carried out aiming at revealing or confirming aspects of his tangible work and disciplinary thought, as well as unveiling some distinctive characteristics of his personality.Within this field of research, there appear two crucial moments in his career, those in which he relates to Le Corbusier, clearly defining key events in his professional life.In 1929, Le Corbusier decides to visit the Río de la Plata and arrives in Montevideo, where he gives two important lectures that shall have an influence on a disciplinary community that was already going along the path of the Modern movement, and with a particular nuance in this Uruguayan architect’s thought.Many years later, in 1947, Vilamajó is chosen to join the Board of Design Consultants for the project regarding the United Nations Headquarters in New York, where he meets Le Corbusier again.Research concludes determining a special bond between Vilamajó and Le Corbusier. The innovative proposals of the Swiss-French architect were assumed reflectively, not submissively, being a decisive contribution to a clearly personal path adapted to its context. En base a las fuentes documentales encontradas al interior de dos valijas pertenecientes al arquitecto uruguayo Julio Vilamajó, se desarrolla una investigación que busca descubrir o confirmar aspectos de su producción material y su pensamiento disciplinar, así como desentrañar algunas características singulares de su personalidad.En este marco de exploración se destacan dos momentos singulares en su trayectoria, aquellos donde se relaciona con la figura de Le Corbusier, marcando claramente eventos singulares en su vida profesional.En 1929, Le Corbusier decide visitar el Río de la Plata y desembarca en Montevideo donde dicta dos importantes conferencias que influirán en una colectividad disciplinar que ya transitaba los caminos del movimiento moderno y con un sesgo particular, en el pensamiento del arquitecto uruguayo.Muchos años después, en 1947, Vilamajó es seleccionado para participar como consultante externo en el equipo de proyecto para la Sede de las naciones Unidas en Nueva York y allí se encuentra nuevamente con Le Corbusier.La investigación concluye en determinar un vínculo particular de Vilamajó con Le Corbusier. Las propuestas renovadoras del arquitecto suizo-francés fueron asumidas reflexivamente, sin sumisión, significando un aporte crítico a un camino marcadamente personal y apropiado para el medio.
