The School of Architecture at Universidad Finis Terrae will host the symposium "Between Van Eycks and Smithsons: Theoretical Convergences, Practical Divergences. Thresholds, Steps, Transitions," which seeks to delve into the specific conditions of the architectural works of Aldo and Hannie van Eyck and Peter and Alison Smithson, and to debate their conceptual issues.

Starting in November, the Faculty of Architecture and Design at Universidad Finis Terrae will host the "Architectural Criticism Laboratory" seminar. The program will be led by the ARKRIT Research Group, established in 2008 at ETSAM, which focuses on developing architectural criticism as a methodological foundation for design. In their work, the critical exercise serves as the primary driver of the design process, to the point where criticism and design can become indistinguishable.

The School of Architecture of the Universidad Finis Terrae (Chile) is pleased to announce the Between Van Eycks and Smithsons Symposium: Theoretical Convergences, Practical Divergences. Thresholds, Doorsteps, Transitions, seeking to delve into specific conditions of the architectural works of Aldo and Hannie van Eyck and Alison and Peter Smithson, and to discuss their broad conceptual problems.

Renowned Paraguayan architect Solano Benítez will be the guest for “Diálogos aislados” (Isolated Dialogues), a series organized by the School of Architecture at Universidad Finis Terrae, held every Wednesday via Zoom.

Through a graphic, historical, and comparative analysis of a selection of architectural magazines that have been instrumental in disseminating the discipline and developing graphic and editorial design, this talk examines how these publications have emerged and disappeared over the last two centuries. It also explores the historical and disciplinary milestones that ensure architectural publishing remains not only a significant presence but a relevant and vital force in a fully digital era.
