Abstract

At the School of Architecture of Madrid in the late 1960s, the end of the modern quest had been reached, and the beginning of the 1970s saw important structural and epistemological changes that were not free of tensions. The intellectual differences between generations led to a dialectical querelle between the organicism advocated by New Form and an emerging post-modernism that was linked to "Nueva Figuración". This transition in the School of Madrid found in drawing a generational binder and a way of vindicating everything that architecture had to offer in terms of artistic, cultural and humanistic practice. On the threshold of transformation, "Arquitecturas Modernas" appeared, an exhibition held in 1980 which extended the scope of the School to the Ynguanzo gallery, promoting the notion of drawings as autonomous objects and the nature of architecture, beyond the constructed building, as a cultural practice.
