- Photographs of Theatre that could not be. Maruja Mallo´s stage designsPublication . GONZALEZ CUBERO, JosefinaOver the first half of the 20th century, avant-garde painters delved into theatre art and conceived innovative designs they put forward to break through the prevailing naturalism of the time. Spanish painter Maruja Mallo (1902-1995) also took an interest in stage design, first through her reciprocally influenced work with Rafael Alberti and then on her own. She produced designs that have been recorded in both her own and others’ photographs and in comments attesting to her work in this field. Both the silence of her former lovers (Rafael Alberti and Miguel Hernández) in this regard and traditional attitudes about women on the part of other intellectuals of the time together, coupled with the tragedy of the Spanish Civil War and exile have left very few vestiges of her interesting stage design work, to which she had attached a great deal of importance before the war. This article highlights Maruja Mallo’s unique stage designs, her identity as compared to other influential artists, and her influence and legacy, in addition to explaining these designs’ links to architecture.
- Shaping Vision: The photographic work by Aris KonstantinidisPublication . GONZALEZ CUBERO, JosefinaDuring his studies of architecture at The Technical University of Munich, Aris Konstantinidis (Άρης Κωνσταντινίδης; Athens, 1913-1993) comes in contact with the conceptions of Modernism. His early works reflect this affiliation, but soon he builds an architecture that does not renounce to the modern condition, and neither to establish a close relationship with tradition and genius loci of his country. Along with the practice of architecture, he develops a photographic activity, using photography as documentation and promotion of his architectural work. But he does not stop there, as he uses photography in all its possibilities. Throughout his life he uses it as a research and knowledge tool of his environment, and as a construction of the camera as well, I, e, as art of looking. This paper studies the characteristics of Konstantinidis pictures about the Greek landscape and the vernacular architecture in his two books entitled Elements for Self- Knowledge. Towards A True Architecture (Στοιχεία αυτογνωσίας. Για μιαν αληθινή αρχιτεκτονική, 1975) and God-Built (Θεόκτιστα, 1992), and his final presentation in the design of books.
