520 8 From the Gothic to the contemporary, glass has transformed
the structural, formal, and philosophical principles of
architecture. In The Glass State, Annette Fierro views the
many meanings of transparency in architecture.
Specifically, she analyzes the transparent monumental
buildings that were built in Paris between 1981 and 1998
as part of Francois Mitterrand's program of Grands
Projets. The Grands Projets provide a rare opportunity to
study a finite set of buildings constructed of similar
materials, in the same time period, in a specific urban
landscape, and with related ideological missions. Fierro
employs a "discourse of the detail," in which the smallest
architectural detail manifests the political, theoretical,
and urban contexts of the building's design and
construction. She examines the paradox of the most pared
down architectural configurations being used to support
the most complex meanings. Intrinsic to Mitterrand's glass
buildings in Paris, for example, is a political concept:
the metaphor of accessibility as a means of breaking open
cultural institutions previously closed to the public. In
addition to the structures of the Grands Projets -- the
Institut du Monde Arabe, the Grande and Petite Pyramides
du Louvre, the glass greenhouses at utopian park projects
at La Villette and Andre Citroën and the Bibliotheque
nationale de France -- Fierro discusses the Fondation
Cartier and two precedent structures, the Centre Georges
Pompidou and the Eiffel Tower.
