Although much has been said about the direct relationship between art and architecture, little has been done regarding how historically significant works of art may be utilized as sources of inspiration for the architectural production of today. We may cite several historical and aesthetic analyses on such works of art and their particular zeitgeist, but how might such a work of art illuminate and extend today’s architectural process, theories and ideas?In other words, (1) how does the past (in)(de)(re)form the present? and (2) how do another discipline’s insights(in)(de)(re)form our discipline’s process of ideation? Having these thoughts in mind, a pedagogy was developed tomake students realize that (1) architecture deals with issues and ideas that transcend the purely programmatic (i.e.,’functional’) and the stereotypically formal; (2) new architectural ideas may come from old and non-architectural sources; (3) ideas are discovered and evolve through a staged critical process, as opposed to a singular act of explanation ; and (4) the role of the architect/designer is one of interpreter, as opposed to imitator, of one’s surroundings, culture, tradition, etc.
