"Chambord Inachevé" : Entre o real e o imaginário

Abstract

2019, the year that corresponds to the development of this essay, also corresponds to the year of the involvement in the project Chambord Inachevé: L'utopie à L'oeuvre. The present essay proposes the exhibition of the proposal to the competition as a device that stimulate and now follows through the flux of investigation starting from the history of this figure that combine the personal experience throughout the present year: Chambord. The stage of the men's will, ready to receive all diferent scenarios, expressed through a structure that follows its history and that raises other interpretations and the respective derivation's of speech, giving strength and will to the ramification of the narrative and promoting another one that develops and involves on the sidelines of the central piece. The structure follows the standard of a dramatic text, "not to lose the contact with the profoundness that the [illusion] covers/ with that elemental reality and pre-textual/ with that "pre-existence" scenic which is the raw material of the scene"2 and is divided in three acts: the first act - Ênfase - which addresses the moment of men appreciation, as a creative human being and the historical framework of the Château de Chambord as a striking element in arts affirmation in France, along with the king François Ier. The second act - Suspense - reaches the convergence of the various disciplines in search of the formation and functioning of the creative imagination, in the understanding of architecture as the object of the act of the imaginary. It also corresponds to the reminder of the uncertainty of our condition and the inevitable and relentless passage of time assumed by the memory that resists and persists through it. At last, corresponding to the advance of Chambord's narrative - Clímax - which reflects the present condition and the expectation for the outcome of an uncertain future. The reflection on the condition of the château as a monument that faces the resistance through time in a persistent desire for permanence. It is in this sense that we go back to the origin and to the first stimulus of the present work, by presenting the response to the competition that lead to all this.
