TABERA-ROLDAN, Andrés y ACILU-FERNANDEZ, Aitor. A. Bonet and J. L. Sert. The “Renaissance” spirit in the impulse of a transatlantic modernity in Mediterranean key. Estoa [online]. 2022, vol.11, n.22, pp.134-153. ISSN 1390-9274. https://doi.org/10.18537/est.v011.n022.a08.
In the late 1920s, the architects Sert and Torres Clavé found in the spirit of the Renaissance, in the study of European modern magazines and in the contact with Le Corbusier and the CIAM, the inspiration to make GATCPAC a driving force for new proposals in architecture, urban planning and furniture in Mediterranean style. A young Antonio Bonet, still a student, collaborated in this task and years later, between 1938 and 1950 in Buenos Aires, he revived the avant-garde spirit of his formative years. Through a comparative review of projects of different nature - editorial, urban planning, and related with the figure of Gaudí-, developed respectively by Sert and Bonet in their particular American experiences between 1938 and 1960, this article aims to discover some similarities that contributed to the development of a Mediterranean and transatlantic modernity, in which the attitude of “rebirth” was reiterated.
