MALUENDA, Ana Esteban. Transatlantic connections: Antonio Bonet and Eladio Dieste: the constructive alterity. An. Inst. Arte Am. Investig. Estét. Mario J. Buschiazzo [online]. 2021, vol.51, n.2, pp.1-13. ISSN 2362-2024.

The encounter between Antonio Bonet and Eladio Dieste in 1945 on the occasion of the construction of the Casa Berlingieri (1947) marked the beginning of the application of a new construction system: the cerámica armada (structural masonry). Inspired by the Mediterranean ceramic tradition, but based on the Latin American reality, structural masonry is probably one of the best examples of constructive otherness and understanding between two spheres often as dissimilar as Europe and Latin America. In this encounter, balance prevailed over appropriation, neither of the characters imposed their ideas over the other and both learned. To a certain extent, the subsequent work of both gave very significant results based on that exchange between the two sides of the Atlantic.

Palabras clave : Antonio Bonet; Eladio Dieste; structural masonry; alterity; Iberoamerica; mid-20th Century.
