What to do with our dead? Burn them? Bury them? Make them disappear? Keep them within easy reach?
\nWe’re 70km from Barcelona, behind Montserrat. Here, as all over Spain, we don’t bury the dead, we pile them up in niches and superimposed vaults. The new Igualada cemetery, for example, will be the work of two Catalan architects at the very start of their careers, Enric Miralles and Carme Pinos. The project is surprising because it blends into the landscape. The land is hollowed out, inhabited by strange alignments of oblique concrete walls, covered with earth and planted. Is it a building? Or rather a place? A place enriched by the very fact that it’s not finished? A strong link between twentieth-century architecture and landscape, between Le Corbusier and Richard Long.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
