The Master Plan of the Cathedral of Cuenca. A Continued Intervention
| Resumo: | It is necessary to situate the intervention plan of a cathedral today around a document called CATHEDRAL MASTER PLAN. The strategies of active conservation and critical evolution proposed in 1968 by Cesare Brandi through his theory of Restauro established the new guidelines for intervention processes for these buildings. According to his statement, it is necessary to address the idea of change within the new heritage interventions. It proposes a parallel debate between historic nostalgia and the modern appropriation of the Monument, incorporating aspects both from the Letter of Venice from 1964 and, in anticipation, from the Letter of Krakovia from 2000, that explicitly foresaw against the historic and reactionary lectures within heritage interventions. The "critical restoration" of our country. It leads in 1987 to the elaboration of the National Plan of Cathedrals. From that moment, the Master Plan established for each cathedral, with a 10-year horizon and financed by country’s 1% cultural budget allocation for all national works, has developed the program directives for the conservation of these monuments and their contents. As an alternative instrument to the classic project, the MASTER PLAN adds to the Monument a temporary strategy of continued sustainability, incorporating a future project to the current logic of its architecture, without forgetting its historic connotations. |
