Joelho 10. Team 10: Debate and Media in Portugal and Spain

Nuno Correia, Pedro Baía, Carolina B. García Estévez (eds.)

This issue of JOELHO is published in association with the International Conference “Team Ten Farwest: Critical Revision of the Modern Movement in the Iberian Peninsula, 1953-1981”. For the preparation of this conference – held in Porto in November 2019, in the year that marks the 60th anniversary of the last CIAM meeting of Otterlo in 1959 – two preliminary meetings were held, where several contributions of Portuguese and Spanish academics were presented – in Guimarães, December 2017, and Barcelona, June 2018.

Many different historiographical perspectives were centred on subjects like the protagonists, the processes, architectural works, urbanism, and representation – from anthropology to cinema, from pedagogy to research,  from architectural language to theory, from housing to tourism, from image to criticism. After these two meetings, the guest editors of JOELHO challenged the academics interested in this subject – whether they had been in Guimarães and Barcelona, or not – to submit full papers that could contribute to deepen the knowledge about the means of diffusion of the ideas coming out of the Team 10 meetings, both in Portugal and Spain. Although not exclusively, the proposed articles could be focused on publications in all forms – architectural magazines, books, manifestos, television shows and documentaries; meetings, congresses and exhibitions; or individual personalities.  All the papers here published result from that open call for papers.

The title of this issue is composed by three moments of focus: Team 10 / Debate and Media / Portugal and Spain. The main focus addresses Team 10 as a group of architects who were dealing with the renovation process of Modern Architecture after the Second World War. Known as an informal group, Team 10 was however a platform of discussion, based on a complex network of several individual links with schools of architecture, architectural magazines, editors, writers and artists. That network is analysed in the second moment of focus. The last moment is a cultural and geographical one.
