Nave de Música (Nave 15)
Arquitectos: María Langarita y Víctor Navarro, en colaboración con el diseñador mexicano Jerónimo Hagerman, 2011
Finalista de los premios FAD de arquitectura 2012. Un lugar único dedicado a la música y el arte sonoro, con un pequeño escenario para conciertos, oficinas, nueve salas de ensayo, de conferencias, estudio de radio y estudio de grabación profesional, y otras instalaciones. En muchos sentidos este es un proyecto que comparte la lógica de una matrioska, no solo en el sentido físico más literal, en el que un elemento queda incorporado en otro, sino también en un sentido temporal, en el que unos espacios cobran sentido dentro de otros. La Nave de Música acoge toda la programación musical del centro y alberga presentaciones y colaboraciones con varios de los principales eventos de música que se celebran en España. Este espacio de más de 4.000 m2 es, probablemente, el mejor ejemplo en Madrid de esa nueva arquitectura que trabaja a partir del reciclaje y lo existente, con limitación de recursos pero con un mínimo exquisito por el detalle.

El arquitecto Joaquín Saldaña resulta ganador del concurso convocado por el Ayuntamiento de Madrid el año 1899 para la realización de los nuevos matadero y mercado municipal de ganados en la Dehesa de La Arganzuela, junto al Manzanares, si bien, finalmente las obras se realizan de acuerdo con el proyecto redactado en 1910 por Luis Bellido, arquitecto de propiedades del Ayuntamiento, con la colaboración de J. Eugenio Ribera, ingeniero de reconocido prestigio. El conjunto arquitectónico se compone de 48 edificios agrupados en cinco sectores de producción: dirección y administración, matadero, mercado de abastos, mercado de trabajo y sección sanitaria, cuenta además con viviendas para el personal y capilla; también de sistema de circulaciones y ferrocarril propios... una autentica ciudad laboral.
Sigue el sistema alemán de pabellones aislados, relacionados por medio de viales y presididos por un edificio administrativo, la "Casa del Reloj" situado sobre el eje principal de la composición. Por sus características arquitectónicas y por su escala es uno de los conjuntos edificados más significativos de Madrid. Se advierte en él una unidad estilística y constructiva derivada del uso racional en sus fábricas de tres materiales esenciales ladrillo, mampostería y cerámica, y una cuidadosa introducción de elementos metálicos en la estructura; además de otros aspectos significativos como el empleo de un lenguaje de inspiración neomudéjar muy atenuado, habitual en la arquitectura industrial de la época. El matadero de Madrid sirve de modelo para la construcción en España de este tipo de edificios.
Para el crítico González Amezqueta "Es un ejemplo de gran calidad de arquitectura industrial perfectamente insertado en los procedimientos del ladrillo, con derivaciones hacia el neomudéjar. La mecánica funcional de los procesos laborales no impide discretas acentuaciones ornamentales, ya que todo el proceso constructivo es estrictamente artesanal, con predominio de las técnicas fabricadas del ladrillo en las partes más acertadas".
En 1926, en zona próxima al Vado de Santa Catalina, proyecta Bellido el matadero de gallinas y aves, siendo realizadas las obras, entre 1932 y 1933, bajo la dirección de Francisco Javier Ferrero con la introducción de una clara y cuidada estructura de hormigón pionera en la ciudad y en la que reside uno de sus valores principales.
A partir de 1940 se llevan a cabo diferentes remodelaciones y ampliaciones, entre ellas la de la nave de patatas, el pabellón de autopsias y los abrevaderos.
En la década de 1980, perdida su función original, el Departamento de Conservación de Edificios del Ayuntamiento comienza la rehabilitación sistemática de los edificios del conjunto para su uso como contenedores de actividades culturales, sociales, deportivas y administrativas propias del Ayuntamiento; primero bajo la dirección de Rafael Fernández-Rañada, que acondiciona la Casa del Reloj para Junta Municipal del Distrito de Arganzuela y la nave de terneras para sala cultural y deportiva, y después, de Guillermo Costa que realiza el Palacio de Cristal (rehabilitación de la nave de patatas para invernadero) y el parque del matadero, con la colaboración del ingeniero, también municipal, M. Ángel Martínez Lucio.
Desde 1996 Costa continúa la consolidación estructural de fachadas y cubiertas de 7 naves del recinto sur, sin un uso predeterminado y en distintas fases, a la espera de la realización del proyecto para su adecuación a nuevas actividades de carácter cultural, comercial o de ocio. Finalmente, el conjunto edificado se incluye en el catálogo de bienes a conservar dentro del Plan General de Ordenación Urbana de 1997.
En el extremo norte parte de las antiguas naves de estabulación son cedidas al Instituto Nacional de Artes Escénicas y de la Música (INAEM) para establecer en ellas las sedes del Ballet Nacional de España y de la Compañía Nacional de Danza, según proyecto de Fernández Alba y Castillo-Puche, concluyéndose las obras de adaptación en 1999.
En 2005 se aprueba la modificación del Plan Especial de Intervención, Adecuación Arquitectónica y Control Urbanístico-Ambiental de Usos del recinto del antiguo matadero municipal, que incrementa el uso cultural hasta el 75% del total.
A partir de 2006 el Ayuntamiento se plantea rehabilitar en distintas fases, mediante proyectos derivados de concursos de arquitectura, este inmenso contenedor de casi 150.000 m2, para albergar multitud de eventos y encuentros, fomentando la creatividad de artistas de múltiples especialidades. El conjunto se convierte en un núcleo de actividad cultural que alberga las más importantes citas de la ciudad. Así, se inician actuaciones para convertir el recinto en centro de apoyo a la creación, en campo de experimentación de la nueva arquitectura, pero siguiendo los criterios de intervención del Plan Especial, que establece la preservación de la envolvente de las naves. La línea maestra que ha guiado las intervenciones es la reversibilidad, de modo que los edificios pueden ser fácilmente devueltos a su estado original. Las actuaciones mantienen expresamente las huellas del pasado para reforzar el carácter experimental de las nuevas instituciones que alojan. Se ha buscado el equilibrio entre el respeto máximo al espacio, y una dotación específica, que lo distinga, a través del uso limitado de materiales industriales directos y que, al mismo tiempo, dé servicio a los diferentes usos que pueda albergar.
En 2012, tras la visita del jurado de los premios FAD a Matadero Madrid, decidió reconocer la labor en conjunto de todos los arquitectos que han participado en el proceso de reforma. El fallo valora “tanto la actitud global de la propuesta, que apuesta de una forma valiente por la experimentación y el respeto a los espacios de libertad gestionados desde la sociedad civil, como la conceptualización del proyecto, desde su inicio en el 2007 con la rehabilitación del vestíbulo y el espacio Intermediae, hasta las recientes intervenciones de la Nave 16 y la Nave de Música finalistas en la presente edición de los Premios FAD”. Así mismo, el jurado destacó de Matadero Madrid “la inteligencia colectiva, la unidad que le viene inferida por la arquitectura industrial preexistente, y que con un mínimo de protagonismo exterior de las nuevas intervenciones, en el interior resuelve con rigor y autenticidad las diversas necesidades del extenso programa del centro, buscando no sólo mantener los espacios arquitectónicos y formas estructurales, sino también el carácter, la atmósfera y sobre todo el irrepetible paso del tiempo”.
Ese mismo año el Colegio Oficial de Arquitectos de Madrid otorgó uno de sus premios a las intervenciones en la Cineteca y Archivo Documenta, y en la Nave 16. Por último, destaca la interconexión de Matadero Madrid y Madrid Río mediante la urbanización de los espacios públicos -Calle y Plaza Matadero- por el mismo equipo de arquitectos -Ginés Garrido, Carlos Rubio y Fernando Porras- que proyectó Madrid Río. Está previsto además que dicha conexión, gracias a dos nuevos accesos, se amplíe entre diciembre de 2012 y julio de 2013. Madrid Río ha recibido, entre otros premios, el International Architecture Award 2012 del Chicago Athenaeum of Architecture and Design y el European Centre for Architecture Art Design and Urban Studies, el Premio de Diseño Urbano y Paisajismo Internacional otorgado por el Comité de Críticos de Arquitectura CICA, en el marco de la XIII Bienal de Buenos Aires; o el Premio FAD de Ciudad y Paisaje 2012, entre otros galardones.
Sir William de Ferrers 1280 and one of his wives lie on a tomb chest within an ornate canopy north of the chancel altar. www.flickr.com/gp/52219527@N00/bg2ur102xA The arch above is cusped under a crocketted gable, the cusps end in fine heads. www.flickr.com/gp/52219527@N00/0Lf0HxN6oY In the gable are 2 censing angels. It separates the chancel from the north chapel. and may once have served as an Easter Sepulchre. Stylistic elements of this tomb appear in the St James' Chapel of c 1320 in Exeter Cathedral.
The male figure is in chain armour, with a coiffe de maille drawn tightly over the head, The legs are crossed, but are very much mutilated; there is a shield on the left arm suspended by a belt across the right shoulder, both hands rest on the sword, the scabbard of which is missing.
The lady has a coverchief on the head and hanging down the back of the neck, it is confined by a fillet round the forehead; the throat, chin, and sides of the face are covered with a wimple, the body of the dress is tight-fitting with a long flowing skirt. The hands, which rest on the breast, and the feet, have been broken off. www.flickr.com/gp/52219527@N00/591As2JT8B

(Dr. Oliver says, in Monasticon Dioecesis Exoniensis, p. 289:- "Sir William de Ferrariis (the grandson) having rebuilt (extended) the parish church was desirous of making it collegiate. For this purpose he assigned a sufficient endowment for an arch-priest, and four other clergymen in priest's orders who were to live in common under the same roof. Provision was also made for an assistant deacon, a sub-deacon or at least a clerk. The community were to perform the daily and nightly office in the church and to offer up perpetual prayers for the prosperity of the founder and his lady, Matilda, during their lives, and for their souls after their death, as also for the souls of (his parents) Reginald de Ferrers and Margery / Margaret , and the souls of (wife Matilda's parents) )Sir Roger de Carminow, Knt., and his lady Joan; and the bishops of Exeter were to be remembered, both living and dead.
Bishop Grandisson and the Dean and Chapter of his cathedral approved and confirmed this foundation in 1333-4, but secured the yearly payment therefrom of 20s. for the chorister boys of the cathedral. The founder did not long survive his charitable work, for we find in Bishop Grandisson's Register, Vol. 2, folio 219, that his relict and executrix Matilda obtained from the Bishop, on December 15th, 1338, an acknowledgement of having well and faithfully administered to her late husband's property, and that only the sum of £20 in arrear ad comletionem cantarie de Biry.")
The presbytery was dissolved by Henry VIII in 1533, but even today the rector of Bere Ferrers bears the title of Arch Priest.

Tomb with alabaster effigies presumed to be members of the Ferrers family, c1440.
The church of St Mary the Virgin at Merevale is one of Warwickshire's most significant medieval churches, and a rarity in having originally served as the gate chapel ('capella ante portas') to the adjoining Merevale Abbey, once a major Cistercian monastery but now completely vanished, it's site lying beneath the neighbouring Abbey Farm.
The church itself is of an unusual layout, with a short two-bay chamber for a nave (it's aisles demolished long ago) and a far grander four-bay Perpendicular chancel with aisles (it's plan seemingly a reversal of the usual parish church layout).
There are medieval tombs and the old rood screen (re-sited at the west end) but the best feature here is the ancient glass, principally the 14th century kings from a Jesse-Tree now in the east window, that are believed to have come from the Abbey. In the aisles are further fragments of medieval glass, including early 16th century elements original to this building.
The church is sadly normally kept locked without keyholder information, thus a visit will have to be pre-arranged. I am hugely grateful to the Revd Carole Young for so kindly giving up her time for me here.

Detail of the monument to Sir John Ferrers (d.1680) by Arnold Quellin and Caius Gabriel Cibber. A dramatic example of English Baroque situated under the tower from where it greets visitors by the main entrance to the church.
The magnificent former collegiate church of St Editha dominates the town centre of Tamworth. It is an impressively large building of mainly 14th - 15th century date with an imposing west tower (the stump of a former spire is just visible above the parapet), the lower part of which serves as a lofty main entrance and antechamber to the nave.
The spacious interior has several fine monuments (including several medieval tombs on the north side of the chancel and a splendid Baroque piece under the tower) and much fine stained glass by Pre Raphaelite artists (Burne Jones & Ford Madox Brown in the chancel, Henry Holiday in the nave aisles), one of the most rewarding displays in any Midland church.
The church is generally open to visitors most days between 10am & 4pm.
Church of St Andrew, Bere Ferrers Devon
There has been a church here, looking over the River Tavy since the Saxon era. The church now consists of nave, chancel, long north and south transepts, north chapel, south aisle, west tower and south porch. the River Tavy, since the Saxon era.
Shortly after 1066, the Normans built a new church from which the 12c font of Hurdwick stone from Tavistock, lined with lead and large enough to allow for complete immersion, is a survivor www.flickr.com/gp/52219527@N00/
This church was replaced c 1243 by Sir William de Ferrers d1280 who lies with one of his wives under an arch north of the chancel altar. www.flickr.com/gp/52219527@N00/ca39t9BYh6 He founded an Arch Presbytery, with 4 priests and a deacon under an Arch Priest. The first rector was William's younger brother Reginald de Ferrers, who was installed in 1258. The clergymen lived across the road from the church, with their quarters joined by an underground passage. Supported by choirboys they said daily prayers for the souls of Sir William and his wife from one of 5 altars throughout the day & night.
The presbytery was dissolved by Henry VIII in 1533, but even today the rector of Bere Ferrers bears the title of Arch Priest.

c 1332, Sir William's grandson, son of Reginald, another William, extended the church, in part with money from a successful silver mine nearby . However the success of the mine came to the attention of Edward I who annexed it for the Crown & and ordered the silver to be sent to London.
This Sir William is thought to be the knight kneeling in the wonderful 14c stained glass in the chancel east window being the oldest glass of any parish church in Devon.

The building was extended again in the 15c when the south transept was enlarged to create an aisle, possibly followed by the tower. Despite this, and later 17c remodelling of the interior, much of what we can see today is unaltered 14c work
All restored in 1871
Near the altar a small brass plaque marks the spot of the tragic accidental death in 1821 of antiquarian artist Charles Stothard who fell from a ladder whilst making sketches of the chancel stained glass. A note in his pocket from his wife, said 'Take care not to fall from high places'. www.flickr.com/gp/52219527@N00/T5Mm35Bq0q
On the north wall of the chancel is a memorial to 10 New Zealand soldiers who were killed at Bere Ferrers rail station in 1917. The men got off a troop transport train, believing they were alighting at Exeter station to receive food rations. At the same instant, an express train passed in the other direction, and the men were instantly killed. A New Zealand flag hangs from the wall beside the memorial, a gift from High Commissioner Bryce Harland in 1989. www.flickr.com/gp/52219527@N00/YVbG5F9rQh

The late six-sided pulpit is late 17c
The church was restored in 1865 /66 at a cost of £1,800, by E Ashworth of Exeter , with an added vestry to the east end of north chancel chapel behind the organ. At about the same time a fine rood screen with paintings was taken down. ( ! ! ) . parts of which have, with a good deal of added modern work, been made into a belfry screen. www.flickr.com/gp/52219527@N00/MZvwAEeerb . The nave portion of the old screen consisted of three divisions of unusual size, each division about 5 feet wide and containing six tracery lights. Some idea of the original screen can be obtained from the doors in this screen in the tower which formed the doors of the original screen;
In the splay of the westernmost window in the south aisle is a quatrefoiled squint which enabled the priest to see the altar from the porch parvise.

Has a pleasingly period look despite some of the more modern signage. Possibly Stymie Bold Italic font on the side?

José Ferrer (1912- 1992) was an American actor and film director, who was born in Puerto Rico. He won the Academy Award for Best Actor in a Leading Role for his title role in Cyrano de Bergerac (1951). Ferrer was frequently used as a villain in his later film career.
José Ferrer was born José Vicente Ferrer de Otero y Cintrón in San Juan, the capital city of Puerto Rico in 1912. Ferrer's father was Rafael Ferrer, a lawyer, landowner and author who was born and raised in San Juan. Ferrer's mother was María Providencia Cintrón, a native of the coastal town of Yabucoa. Ferrer's paternal grandfather was Dr. Gabriel Ferrer Hernández, who had campaigned for Puerto Rican independence from the Spanish Empire. The Ferrer family moved to New York City in 1914, when José was 2 years old. As a school student, Ferrer was educated abroad at the Institut Le Rosey, a prestigious boarding school located in Rolle, Switzerland. According to the wishes of his father, José should become a concert pianist. Ferrer studied architecture, music and composition at Princeton University. He wrote a dissertation called French Naturalism and Pardo Bazán, about the Spanish naturalist writer Emilia Pardo Bazán. In 1934, Ferrer transferred to Columbia University, where he studied Roman languages. In 1934, while still a college student, Ferrer made his theatrical debut in Long Island-based theatre. In 1935, he was hired as the stage manager at the Suffern Country Playhouse. Later in 1935, Ferrer made his Broadway debut in the comedy play 'A Slight Case of Murder' by Damon Runyon and Howard Lindsay. Ferrer had a major success on Broadway in the play 'Brother Rat' by John Monks Jr. and Fred F. Finklehoffe. The play ran 577 performances from 1936 to 1938. Very successful were also 'Mamba's Daughters (1938) and 'Charley's Aunt' (1940). Even more successful was the 1943 play 'Othello' in which he co-starred as the villainous Iago opposite the Othello of Paul Robeson. 'Othello' was the longest-played Shakespeare play in the United States. The record remains unbroken to this day. In 1946, Ferrer starred in 'Cyrano de Bergerac', his most successful play. He won a Tony Award for his performance. In 1948, Ferrer made his film debut by co-starring with Ingrid Bergman in Joan of Arc (Victor Fleming, 1948). He played the historical monarch Charles VII of France, the ruler who Joan of Arc served during the Hundred Years' War. For his debut role, Ferrer was nominated for an Oscar for Best Male Supporting Actor. Ferrer's success as a film actor, helped him gain more film roles in Hollywood-produced films. He played the smooth-talking hypnotist David Korvo in the Film Noir Whirlpool (Otto Preminger, 1949) with Gene Tierney, and dictator Raoul Farrago in the Film Noir Crisis (Richard Brooks, 1950) starring Cary Grant. In 1950, Ferrer won an Oscar for Best Actor for his role as Cyrano de Bergerac in the film version, Cyrano de Bergerac (Michael Gordon, 1950). He was the first Puerto Rican actor and also the first Hispanic actor to win an Academy Award.
In 1952, José Ferrer won three Tony Awards for directing three plays, namely 'The Shrike', 'Stalag 17' and 'The Fourposter' and he won another Tony for acting in 'The Shrike'. In 1952, Ferrer played the French painter Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec in the historical drama Moulin Rouge (John Huston, 1952). His role earned him an Oscar nomination, but the award was instead won by Gary Cooper. The film also marked a financial success for Ferrer, who received 40% of the film's profits. In 1954, Ferrer took on the role of defence attorney Barney Greenwald in The Caine Mutiny. From 1955 onwards, he also directed a number of films, most of which he also starred in as an actor. First, he directed a film version of The Shrike (José Ferrer, 1955). I Accuse! (José Ferrer, 1958) is a reimagining of the Dreyfus Affair. While still critically well-received, several of these films were box office flops. He took a hiatus from film productions. In 1959, he directed a play called 'The Andersonville Trial', about the consequences of the American Civil War. The play featured George C. Scott. He then took over directing the musical 'Juno'. After sixteen performances, the musical stopped due to a lack of success, which was a setback for Ferrer's directing career. Ferrer attempted a comeback as a film director with the sequel film "Return to Peyton Place" (1961) and the musical film "State Fair" (1962). Both films were box office flops. As an actor, Ferrer appeared as a Turkish Bey in the historical drama Lawrence of Arabia (David Lean, 1962) with Peter O'Toole, as historical monarch Herod Antipas, Tetrarch of Galilee and Perea in the Bible epic The Greatest Story Ever Told (1965) and Ship of Fools (Stanley Kramer, 1965). In television, Ferrer gained a notable role as the narrator in the pilot episode of the hit sitcom Bewitched (1964). In 1968, he featured as a voice actor, playing the villain Ben Haramed in the TV film The Little Drummer Boy. But at this time, he started having legal troubles. The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) accused Ferrer of still owing unpaid taxes since 1962.
José Ferrer had many film roles in the 1970s, but no outstanding highlights. He played one of the many passengers in Voyage of the Damned (Stuart Rosenberg, 1976) with Faye Dunaway, Doctor Vando in Fedora (Billy Wilder, 1978) with William Holden and Marthe Keller and Athos in The Fifth Musketeer (Ken Annakin, 1979), starring Beau Bridges and Sylvia Kristel. In the 1980s, he starred in the popular comedy series Newhart as Julia Duffy's father. In the early 1980s, he also played the role of Reuben Marino in the soap opera Another World. In the cinema, he appeared in A Midsummer Night's Sex Comedy (Woody Allen, 1982), To Be or Not to Be (Mel Brooks, 1983) and Dune (David Lynch, 1984), an adaptation of the 1965 novel 'Dune' by Frank Herbert. This was among the last notable roles of Ferrer's long career. Ferred retired from acting entirely in 1991, due to increasing health problems. His last theatrical performance was a production of the generation-gap drama 'Conversations with My Father'. José Ferrer, who spoke perfect French, Italian and German in addition to Spanish and English, was married a total of four times. His wives were Uta Hagen (1938-1948), actress Phyllis Hill (1948-1953) and the singer and actress Rosemary Clooney (1953-1961 / 1964-1967). From 1977 until his death, he was married to Stella Magee. With Uta Hagen, he had a daughter. With Rosemary Clooney, he had five children born between 1955 and 1960. His oldest son, actor Miguel Ferrer (1955-2017) was known for his role in Medical Examiners. He was followed by Maria Ferrer (1956;) Gabriel Ferrer (1957) married to singer Debby Boone, daughter of Pat Boone; Monsita Ferrer (1958) and Rafael Ferrer (1960). Ferrer was the uncle of actor George Clooney. In 1992, José Ferrer died of colorectal cancer at the age of 80 in Coral Gables, Florida. He was buried in Santa Maria Magdalena de Pazzis Cemetery in Old San Juan in his native Puerto Rico.
