La rehabilitación de un ícono de la modernidad la Iglesia Mater Misericordiae = The rehabilitation of an icon of modernity the Church Mater Misericordiae

La iglesia Mater Misericordiae es un edificio sacro levantado en Baranzate (Milan) a finales de la decada de los anos 50.Supone la culminacion de una serie de experiencias que pretendian la renovacion de la liturgia y, con ello, la renovacion de laarquitectura. Su construccion, enmarcada dentro de un plan mas amplio acometido por el Arzobispado de Milan, supuso un gran avance en varios campos relacionados, principalmente, con la modernidad de la arquitectura sacra, la construccion y las nuevas tecnologias. Incorpora el uso no solamente del hormigon, material poco utilizado hasta ese momento en construcciones sacras, sino que, ademas, introduce un sistema de prefabricacion y postesado “In situ” para la ejecucion de la estructura que muestra el interes de los tecnicos de la epoca por hallar nuevos medios de sistematizacion de la construccion. El sistema constructivo de cerramiento utilizado permite delimitar el espacio liturgico mediante una piel translucida que rodea el espacio, permitiendo la entrada de luz natural durante el dia y la iluminacion del entorno durante la noche. La presente investigacion trata sobre las diferentes soluciones que se han empleado en la resolucion de las fachadas de cerramiento, haciendo especial hincapie en la solucion utilizada en la ultima rehabilitacion a la que ha sido sometida. En este caso se han tratado de incorporar las tecnologias modernas mas avanzadas para la resolucion de los problemas que esta presentaba pero respetando al maximo la idea del proyecto original. Abstract The church Mater Misericordiae is a sacred building raised in Baranzate (Milan) at the end of the decade of the 50s. It supposes the culmination of a series of experiences that were claiming the renovation of the liturgy and, with it, the renovation of the architecture. His construction, framed within a broader plan undertaken by the Archbishopric of Milan, supposed a great advance in several fields related, principally, with the modernity of the sacred architecture, the construction and the new technologies. It incorporates the use not only of concrete, material little used until that moment in sacred constructions, but also, it introduces a prefabrication and post-tensioned system "In situ" for the execution of the structure that shows the interest of the technical personnel of the epoch to find new means of systematizing of the construction. The constructive system of used closing allows to delimit the liturgical space by means of a translucent skin that surrounds the space, allowing the entry of natural light during the day and the lighting of the environment during the night. The present investigation treats on the different solutions that have used in the resolution of the fronts, doing special support in the solution used in the last rehabilitation to which it has been submitted. In this case they have tried to incorporate each other the modern technologies most advanced for the resolution of the problems that this one was presenting but respecting to the maximum the idea of the original project.
