One year after Zaha Hadid died, this film takes a look at her career, and legacy, through five stages which signal significant progressions in her work. The film begins with her drawings and paintings while at the Architectural Association, then captures her first built project at Vitra, moving on to the Stirling Prize-winning MAXXI, which secured her place in the architectural canon, and the London Aquatics Centre - a building which made her known to the public - and finishes with the Maths Gallery at the Science Museum, completed just months after her death.
Featuring interviews with those who knew her including long-time collaborator Patrik Schumacher, architects Eva Jiricna and Nigel Coates, urbanist Ricky Burdett, AJ editor-in-chief Christine Murray and engineer Hanif Kara, the film gives thoughtful insight into the impact Zaha had on the architectural profession.
Produced by Laura Mark and filmed by Jim Stephenson for the AJ.

She broke the rules to make meaningful useful objects, that's how you make design something transcendental and not just a "product" or just another "building", thanks to her one can say: "I'm a designer".

How very very SAD! You can really HEAR the terrible, awful damage she's done to her lungs by years of extremely heavy smoking. (In the unlikely event there was another, secret, cause of her respiratory problems -- I apologise!) As a physician I was worried about her health from when she first became well known. I was sure her life would be cut short WAY too soon, but really really hoped I was wrong. What a tragedy she died so young, but what a truly wonderful, spectacular, inspirational legacy she has left!

Is it possible to make a carrier if you're very good in architectural visualisation without architecture degree ? is it possible to find a job in architecturing private companies and maintain a career focusing on this archviz field ? I mean architects could always use someone to build a model out of the autocad file, to texture it and render it ?

I can see one of her works from my bedroom window-the Wangjing Soho. It’s very spectacular from afar, but it’s not a very workable or successful building. Her buildings seem to be more sculpture than architecture-like so many current architects.

I think that her work transitioned our times from the new mannerist , where one feels totally individual in relationship to the structure - such as a fetus in the womb , and at the same time , the union with nature allows for a sensation of the retro tribalism that we are moving into -- allowing people to feel their "Group-ness" be it activity, nationality , or philosophy . One of the commentators below suggested that she is soulless , the buildings have no soul, and I would agree , in that by remaining un enlivened containers , the whole insdividual self is felt - as soul. To me , "the Vessel " is what her work embodies - the energy vessel into which we are able to be alive . Now , that said , to me , I am a musician , they say architecture is frozen music . The sound of her structures is the OM , and someone else below , wrote that its like whale bones on a beach , when you wanted to envision dolphins playing . To me , that whale bones on the beach , is an incredible thought , which although spoken derogatory , explains exactly my sensation of the new tribalism that will emerge from the presence of the structures and drawings of this great artist .

​@@AnotherWierdThing I think when it comes to architecture, I have a more simple philosophy than most people. I ask myself one question: Would I rather it not exist? Or, if something was demolished for it, would I rather the previous building? Port Authority just screams awesome to me. Would I notice that location, that plaza, and the building that's under it, without such a unique and weird structure towering over? For me, I believe ugly = boring (most of the time) A 70s box skyscraper is boring, and ugly to me. A simple modern glass box with no extra flair is inoffensive, but sorta boring, semi-ugly to me. Port Authority? Man it looks like a space ship! It looks like science fiction! It looks like a crystal gem. If a building looks like that to me, will never be ugly, no matter what form or shape or colour it takes on. Sorry for longwinded explanation! I think it just makes me sad when uniqueness and weirdness is sometimes mistaken for grave ugliness. I like stuff that makes you look up, makes you notice.
@AnotherWierdThing
@AnotherWierdThing 4 роки тому
@@beanfotchott3303 Im sorry but I disagree. I think there are objective standards of beauty and the only quality of the port authority building is the fact that it so blatantly dominates and imposes itself above the classical building. This dominance in itself is not a criterion of beauty, but merely just a structural quality, if the building beneath it was to be stripped away, the port authority building would be unnoticeable amongst the sea of modern and irregularly shaped buildings. For the port authority building to register any sense of memorability, it requires the old building to be accompanied, essentially revealing itself as hollow and empty.
