La revista vanity fair, ha hecho una encuesta entre conocedores de la arquitectura (o al menos arquitectos famosos), en la que les preguntaba por lo que consideraban eran los edificios más importantes construidos después de 1980 y su edificio favorito del siglo XXI.
Así pues, 52 encuestados de la talla de : Zaha, Tadao Ando, Stan Allen, Peter Eisenmann, Lord Norman Foster, Kennet Frampton, Frank Gehry, Steven Holl, Ben Van Berkel. etc…. nos dicen sus preferenicas (puedes ver la lista completa y sus preferencias en este link)
La encuesta es muy interesante, porque puedo imaginarme a los famosos tachando y repensando las respuestas que iban a poner en base a sus estrategias políticas, de quedar bien a quien beneficiar, etc. porque claro, todo el mundo las va a leer y a criticar…. te pongo aquí las respuestas de Zaha (que no puso a sejima):
MY CHOICES FOR THE MOST IMPORTANT BUILDINGS, MONUMENTS, OR BRIDGES COMPLETED SINCE 1980:
Guggenheim Museum, Bilbao, Spain (Frank Gehry)
HSBC Building, Hong Kong (Norman Foster)
Mediatheque Building, Sendai, Japan (Toyo Ito)
Lloyd’s Building, London (Richard Rogers)
BMW Welt, Munich (COOP Himmelblau)
MY CHOICE FOR THE MOST SIGNIFICANT WORK OF ARCHITECTURE CREATED SO FAR IN THE 21ST CENTURY:
Casa de la Musica, Porto Portugal (Rem Koolhaas/O.M.A.)
Es curioso, ver a Scofidio o Wolf Prix que se ponen ellos mismos, o Meier que se pone el mismo inclusive, pero dos veces….
El ganador absoluto con casi 3 veces más votos que el siguiente ha sido el Museo Guggenheim de Bilbao de Gehry, seguido de la galeria de Menil, el spa de Vals de Zumthor y el banco HSBC de foster. (galería incluída después del sigue leyendo)

es un pena que sólo ricardo scofidio se haya acordado del edificio ‘blur’ (aunque no sea muy correcto votar un edificio propio)…. quizás el edificio má radical desde un punto de vista topológico de los últimos 30 años…. ¡¡¡qué poco reconocimiento!!!
