Drawing from a range of diverse disciplinary approaches, JACK will look at how architectural and urban space, real or staged, are fundamental to cinema and the way in which film, in its multiple dimensions, may become a key instrument within the creative process and the perception of architecture. JACK will explore this juxtaposition of filmic discourse and architectural design, to propose a spatial reading of film and a filmic take on architecture, crossing and diluting the boundaries between the two. This is, therefore, a journal in which architecture and cinema are never to be taken separately.
With texts by Abílio Hernandez, Francisco Ferreira, João Mário Grilo, François Penz, António-Pedro Vasconcelos, Eduardo Prado Coelho, Paulo Rocha, Luis Urbano and João Rosmaninho. Interview with António-Pedro Vasconcelos.
