Abstract

The new campus of the Universidad de Buenos Aires entered architectural discourse in 1967 with a publication on the design of its typical block. While the university was considered the epicentre of urban and architectural development in Latin America, contemporary descriptions of the new Ciudad Universitaria assumed a technical tone and focused on structural diagrams and managerial tools. This article examines the spatial implications of this episode, which are inextricably connected with a sophisticated financial process within the bureaucratic apparatus of the university. It reveals the extraordinary managerial skills and mediation practices of university authorities—attempting to liberate capital flows in their favour—in ensuring a fruitful dialogue with executives and intermediaries of foreign private entities. An analysis of the hollowed-out typical block building designed by Argentine architects and educators Horacio Caminos and Eduardo Catalano traces the uneven delimitation of the urban interior as the new contested territory where knowledge production is controversially cultivated.

资助现代研究型大学:Caminos 和 Catalano 的 Ciudad Universitaria de Buenos Aires (1959-66)

摘要

布宜诺斯艾利斯大学的新校区于 1967 年进入建筑领域,并发表了一份关于其典型街区设计的出版物。虽然该大学被认为是拉丁美洲城市和建筑发展的中心,但对新 Ciudad Universitaria 的当代描述采用了技术基调,并侧重于结构图和管理工具。本文探讨了这一事件的空间影响,这与大学官僚机构内复杂的财务流程密不可分。它揭示了大学当局非凡的管理技能和调解实践——试图释放有利于他们的资本流动——以确保与外国私营实体的高管和中介机构进行富有成效的对话。
