‘Rupturas’ urbanas-territoriales entre ciudad-paisaje: Construcción póstuma de un entorno metropolitano en la encrucijada

Abstract

The objective of the investigation reverberates several current circumstances of the suburban / peri-urban territory-landscape of Bilbao that are manifested in the city. Agglomeration of a metropolitan nature, the disappearance of industrial footprints leaves an extensive city, expanded to the territory, conditioned by the re-creation of image and imagination. From the identity inheritances converted into internationally interchangeable environments and evocations with their sociocultural (Delgado 2011) and iconographic-symbolic parameters, to strategies for incorporating furniture, public sculpture and memorial elements of a monumental nature (Arnaiz, Elorriaga, Laka & Moreno 1998). Endeavors in which art-spurs are constantly appealed, to architecture as an emblem, to urban planning and territorial planning, to economic intricacies and to the concept of citizenship for the conformation of neo-stories (Etxarte 2019). Aspects in which the problems of urban sustainability (Naredo 2004) and / or landscape at an aesthetic level (Steele 2018), which affect both historical centers such as Ciutat Vella (Aranburu 2002) or Megapark in Bilbao cannot be avoided.
