项目摘要

Tents represent a critical part of the architectural canon spanning both centuries and civilizations but are often overlooked in favour of those buildings that have left a longer-lasting mark on their surroundings. In the introduction to his 1979 book, Tents: Architecture of the Nomads, Torvald Faegre wrote that 'In a sense, tents are the truest architecture: our word architect comes from the Greek archi, "one who directs" and tectos, the "weaving"'. The feting of the late Pritzker Prize winning architect Frei Otto, whose 1972 tensile canopy for the Munich Olympic Stadium is still considered one of the landmarks of world architecture and an apogee of tent construction, demonstrates that tents can be some of the most futuristic and sophisticated building types. However, most tents fulfil a much more basic function for, as Faegre's Tents (1979) reminds us, they also have the capacity to serve a primal need for shelter and flexibility of situation. For many casual observers tents are simply resonant of camping holidays but the stereotype that this conjures distracts from the significance of the tent as a structure that is able to embody messages of both libertarianism and authoritarianism in a single object. Accordingly the architecture critic Tom Dyckhoff, summed up his thoughts on the importance of tents in his 2014 BBC documentary Tents: The Beginnings of Architecture by saying, 'stitched into the fabric of all tents is a defiant streak; they are a rebellious force in both architecture and society at large' ('Tents - The Beginning of Architecture', The Culture Show. BBC2. 24 July 2014). This project considers the tent as an important expression of architecture at an earlier point of apogee through a study of the design of the royal tents and associated temporary structures that were built for the sixteenth-century English court by the Office of Tents and Revels. In doing so it responds to all three of the themes cited above - those of sophistication, itinerancy and symbolism - and pushes the boundaries of our current understanding of early modern architecture and, by association, politics. The project is timed to underpin preparations for the 500th anniversary of the Field of Cloth of Gold in 2020, an event that arguably defined the importance of tents and temporary structures as a tool of European monarchy in the period and as an outlet for creativity in architecture and design. However, the project spreads its net wider than that single event to review the role of the royal tent across the whole period from the accession of Henry VIII to the death of Elizabeth I. Supporting the project is a rich vein of evidence that includes paintings and drawings, account books, inventories, chronicles, furniture and surviving fragments said to be from royal tents that has never before been collated and reviewed as a whole. By doing so this project will both highlight the important role played by tents in European diplomacy and will demonstrate that the Office of Tents and Revels employed renowned craftsmen whose work on temporary structures playfully and experimentally pushed the boundaries of architectural and decorative design at a time widely acknowledged as a great period of development in English architectural history. The project will culminate in the construction of a recreated royal tent that will act as a piece of experimental archaeology or practice-based research and a high-impact way of engaging broad audiences with the themes of architecture, power and magnificence at the Tudor courts.
帐篷代表了跨越几个世纪和文明的建筑经典的重要组成部分,但往往被那些在周围留下更持久印记的建筑所忽视。在他1979年出版的书《帐篷:游牧民族的建筑》的引言中,Torvald Faegre写道:“从某种意义上说,帐篷是最真实的建筑:我们的建筑师这个词来自希腊语archi,“指导的人”和tectos,“编织”。”已故的普利兹克奖得主建筑师Frei Otto在1972年为慕尼黑奥林匹克体育场设计的拉伸顶篷仍然被认为是世界建筑的地标之一,也是帐篷建筑的巅峰,这表明帐篷可以是最具未来感和最复杂的建筑类型之一。然而,正如Faegre的《帐篷》(1979)所提醒我们的那样,大多数帐篷都有更基本的功能,它们也有能力满足住所和灵活性的基本需求。对于许多不经意的观察者来说,帐篷只是让人联想到露营度假,但这种刻板印象分散了帐篷作为一种结构的重要性,它能够在一个单一的物体中体现自由主义和威权主义的信息。因此,建筑评论家Tom Dyckhoff在他2014年的BBC纪录片《帐篷:建筑的起源》中总结了他对帐篷重要性的看法,他说:“所有帐篷的织物中都有一种反抗的特质;他们在建筑和整个社会中都是一股反叛力量”(“帐篷-建筑的开端”,The Culture Show)。BBC2。2014年7月24日)。该项目通过研究皇家帐篷和相关临时结构的设计,将帐篷视为早期建筑的重要表达形式,这些帐篷和临时结构是由帐篷和狂欢办公室为16世纪的英国宫廷建造的。在这样做的过程中,它回应了上面提到的所有三个主题——复杂、流动和象征主义——并推动了我们目前对早期现代建筑的理解,以及与政治的联系。该项目的时间安排是为了支持2020年金布场500周年的准备工作,这一事件可以说是定义了帐篷和临时结构作为当时欧洲君主制工具的重要性,以及作为建筑和设计创造力的出口。然而,该项目的范围比这一单一事件更广,它回顾了从亨利八世登基到伊丽莎白一世去世的整个时期皇家帐篷的作用。支持该项目的是丰富的证据,包括绘画和素描、账簿、清单、编年史、家具和据称来自皇家帐篷的幸存碎片,这些碎片以前从未被作为一个整体整理和审查过。通过这样做,该项目既突出了帐篷在欧洲外交中的重要作用,也将证明帐篷和狂欢办公室聘请了著名的工匠,他们在临时结构上的工作有趣而实验性地推动了建筑和装饰设计的界限,这一时期被广泛认为是英国建筑史上的伟大发展时期。该项目最终将建造一个重建的皇家帐篷,它将作为一个实验考古学或基于实践的研究,并以一种高影响力的方式吸引广大观众,让他们了解都铎王朝的建筑、权力和辉煌。
