The reflection about the experience of space and its folding about construction
and its physical spaces, on the limit between Art and Architecture, it was the purpose
of this research. The presentation of the Danish artist work, OlafurEliassoncreating an
overview of the study of space that the Artist has been carrying out since 1990.It is
installations of Art, which seeks a sensorial space, provocation of the visitor’s sense to
produce an experience of space. Because of the theoretical basis mentioned
frequently by the Artist and its artistic and architectural references, it is necessary one
chapter of understanding the theory of Eliasson’s masterpieces. Starting from the
contact with his artworks, narrowing the theme was defined around the aspects of
light and movement on the perception of space, where it highlights the references of
the Artist on History of Modern Art- The Kinetic Movement and the Group
Light&Space. The configured-triangle between the principle figures of these three
moments- Lászlo Moholy-Nagy, James Turrell and OlafurEliasson–serves as the access
to the repertory of the Danish Artist and it justifies the research not being focused on a
series of other notorious references of Eliasson. This thesis is divided, then, in three
chapters - the Presentation, the Understanding of the Theory and the Artworks of
Eliasson–in which the relationship is established on the examples of the artworks
commented. The tangle of theoretical references found on books of Eliasson has
consequences on the miscellaneous of Chapter 2. From the concepts clarified, terms
used by the Artist, on which artwork commented. On the analysis of two expositions
that occurred on the 2000 years, Take Your Time and Weather Project, it is better
understood his vocabulary and conceptual intentions applied on physical space. The
relevance of multiple researches of OlafurEliasson, which put him on the boarder of
Art and Science includes also the philosophical knowledge and its collaborators, such
as the curator Daniel Birnbaum, and culminates on the experiment of space on the
installations, on the participation of the public.

In  2019,  Jacques  Rancière  presented “Architectures  Deplacées”,  at the Société  Française  des  Architectes,  Paris. our  work  consists  of  the translation of this lecture and the introductory paper, themes of his recent  conferences  on  architecture.  Among  the  proposed  ethical, poetic and aesthetic dislocations, Rancière elucidates intrinsic issues of architecture in relation to landscape. In this context, the move-ment also refers to the destabilization of the finality of architecture, the search for perfection, aiming at the construction of free worlds. According  to  Rancière,  when  architecture  leaves  its  stronghold,  it causes more effective changes. Just as he observes that painting is the source of an “architecture to see”, relevant to landscaping, the architecture  rescued  from  its  authoritarian  functionality  becomes the support of a movement of the imagination. Starting from mo-dern architectures – to see or imaginary – from the same escape of the look and imagination, it points to a third way of construction and movement. No longer the elevation to the inaccessible sky, nor the  infinite  horizontal  displacement,  but  the  confrontation  of  im-perfection, in which the criticism of the architectural will is allied to the criticism of the world order

A arquitetura contemporânea é marcada por expressividade formal. A revelia desses aspectos meramente visuais, o uso de rampas nos projetos de Jean Nouvel nos permite investigar o legado moderno de seus mestres. Sobretudo, estudamos a Arquitetura Oblíqua de Claude Parent e Paul Virilio. Originalmente, uma contestação à ortogonalidade corbusiana no contexto francês, seus conceitos reverberam nos projetos atuais indistintamente como referencias formais e/ou embasamento teórico. Hoje, por exemplo, suas premissas sobre o plano inclinado inspiram novas questões relacionadas ao uso do solo. A análise do projeto não construído por Nouvel no Rio de Janeiro - Museu Guggenheim Rio, 2002 – nos levou a retomar esse debate promovido por arquitetos franceses, desde os anos 1960 e tão atuais.
