Spotlight: Benedetta Tagliabue

由专筑网周韦博，刘庆新编译

意大利女建筑师Benedetta Tagliabue（生于1963.06.24）成名于她对于文脉的敏感以及对形式和材料的试验性实践。这些多样和复杂的作品使她在巴萨罗那的EMBT事务所成为21世纪西班牙最著名的实践者。

Benedetta Tagliabue (born 24 June 1963) is an Italian architect known for designs which are sensitive to their context and yet still experimental in their approach to forms and materials. Her diverse and complex works have marked out her Barcelona-based firm EMBT as one of the most respected Spanish practices of the 21st century.

出生于米兰的Benedetta Tagliabue，1989年毕业于威尼斯大学建筑学院。在20世纪90年代初，他嫁给西班牙建筑师Enric Miralles，并且共同创立了Miralles Tagliabue EMBT事务所。他们一起设计了一些著名的作品，包括巴萨罗那圣卡特琳娜市场更新以及大体量的苏格兰国会大厦——这个设计被评论家Charles Jencks描述为“一个小城市”。这反映出这个位于爱丁堡街项目的复杂性。

Born in Milan, Tagliabue graduated from the Istituto Universitario di Architettura di Venezia in 1989. In the early 1990s, she married Spanish architect Enric Miralles and the pair founded their studio Miralles Tagliabue EMBT. Together, Miralles and Tagliabue designed some of the practice's most notable works, including the renovation of the Santa Caterina Market in Barcelona and the enormous edifice of the Scottish Parliament Building - a building which critic Charles Jencks described as "a kind of small city," reflecting the complexity and intricacy of the Edinburgh streets which it responds to.

然而，随着2000年Enric Miralles的英年早逝，Tagliabue开始独立经营事务所，并完成了圣卡特琳娜市场、苏格兰国会大厦以及一系列其他项目。近些年，事务所最著名的项目是2010年上海世博会西班牙馆，它概括了事务所在材料实践方面的设计哲学。

However, following Enric Miralles' tragically premature death in 2000, Tagliabue took over the firm as a sole director, completing the Santa Caterina market, Edinburgh Parliament and a string of other projects besides. In recent years, the firm's most striking work has perhaps been the Spanish Pavilion completed for the 2010 Shanghai Expo, a design which epitomizes their philosophy of continuing curiosity and material experimentation.

Tagliabue直言丈夫对她的设计产生了巨大的影响，并于2011成立了Enric Miralles基金。这笔基金致力于鼓励和推进以他的遗产为基础的实验哲学。

To this day, Tagliabue refers to her late husband as one of her greatest influences, and in 2011 she founded the Foundation Enric Miralles, with the mission of promoting and teaching the philosophies of inquiry and experiment that are fundamental to his legacy.
