description There is no history without women as there is no culture without women, and architecture is not an exception to this norm. This research is focused on revealing how official historiographic mechanisms in architecture omitted women architects’ contributions in the twenties, thirties, and forties. It aroused from the verification of the lack of female models existing in the collective imagination of professional and academic groups on an international level. This situation has strengthened the belief that women architects did not belong to modernity and have not been prominent enough to be published, but when they were so considered, it was assumed that they performed a secondary role as the inspiration, contributors, or leaders of minor arts. This setting lacking female models is the main consequence of the identity that architecture has assigned to women in the historiographical records of modern architecture. We must assume a non-narrated history, and a female identity based on exclusionary narratives. In fact, it is not the main objective of this research to develop in depth women’s contribution to modern architecture, it is however to prove how it was concealed by the analysis of those narratives. Therefore, the review of the most influential textbooks in architectural culture of the twenty century is considered through the lens of gender difference. This sexual difference was not addressed through biological features, nor as the feminist theory of difference, but rather from a gender perspective whose distribution has led social and cultural processes resulting in the construction and praise of particular values and ways of representation. As a proposed approach, a theoretical frame from a feminist perspective is suggested, placing socio cultural and professional context as well as, significance and origins of discrimination of women architects in the modern period. Power, language, and assigned spaces according to gender have been, as in other disciplines, the developers of differences and responsible for the identitarian conformation in the profession. Individualist and heroic discourses are still prevailing in the collective imagination of the academic and the masses as the only historiographic version. Traditional mechanisms used in narrative construction are identified, and tools for the deconstruction of the hegemonic discourse are proposed through the consideration of gender as an analytic category. Methodologically, this work clarifies and defines the criteria to make possible the revision of some of the referential texts in theory and history of the modern architecture that scarred the twenty century. The approach is a bibliographical revision of these texts where the narratives of discrimination in contributions of women architects of modernity are explored. For this, a series of categories used as analytical tools are defined: exclusion, invisibility, pseudo inclusion, and inclusion. An open proposal, whose purpose is emphasizing other ways of interpreting and detecting prejudices in order to build an inclusive historiography. This review gives an account of the subtle yet deep inequality in the treatment towards women architects and designers. At the same time, it demonstrates how formal and linguistic narratives have been constituted, organized, and consolidated on the basis of the male supremacy in this profession. The findings of the analysis reinforce the suggested hypothesis, confirming the generalized exclusion of women works as well as their frequent constraint to subordinate or traditionally secondary roles within the profession.

Esta investigación se centra en desvelar como los mecanismos historiográficos oficiales de la arquitectura omitieron las aportaciones de las arquitectas en las décadas del veinte, treinta y cuarenta del pasado siglo. Surge de la constatación de la falta de modelos femeninos en el imaginario del colectivo profesional y académico a nivel internacional. Situación que ha consolidado la creencia de que las arquitectas no formaron parte de la modernidad o de que sus contribuciones no han sido lo suficientemente destacables para ser publicadas; y, en los casos en que sí han sido consideradas, se asume que ocuparon un rol secundario, de inspiradoras, colaboradoras o protagonistas de «artes menores». Este escenario de ausencia de referentes femeninos es consecuencia principal de la identidad que la cultura arquitectónica ha construido para las mujeres en los relatos historiográficos de la arquitectura moderna. Se parte de la premisa de que existe una historia no contada y de que esta identidad relatada para las mujeres arquitectas está basada en narrativas de exclusión. Si bien no es objetivo de este trabajo desarrollar en profundidad los aportes de las arquitectas en la conformación de la modernidad, sí lo es demostrar como se ha producido tal ocultamiento mediante el análisis de dichas narrativas. Así, la relectura de los discursos de los libros de texto más influyentes de la cultura arquitectónica del siglo XX se plantea desde la reflexión de la diferencia sexual. Diferencia sexual no tratada desde los rasgos biológicos ni la teoría feminista de la diferencia, sino desde la perspectiva de género cuyo reparto ha dirigido los procesos sociales y culturales que derivan en la construcción y exaltación de unos determinados valores y modos de representación. Como abordaje se propone un marco teórico que desde la perspectiva feminista sitúe el contexto sociocultural y profesional de las mujeres arquitectas en la época moderna, así como los alcances y los orígenes de la discriminación. El poder, el lenguaje y los espacios asignados por género han sido, como en otras disciplinas, constructores de las diferencias y responsables de la conformación identitaria de la profesión. Los discursos individualistas y heroicos aún hoy permanecen vigentes en el imaginario colectivo académico y de masas como la única versión historiográfica. Se identifican los mecanismos tradicionalmente utilizados en la construcción de narrativas en general y se proponen herramientas para la deconstrucción del discurso hegemónico mediante la utilización del género como categoría analítica. Metodológicamente este trabajo reelabora y define criterios para hacer posible la revisión de algunos de los textos referentes en teoría e historia de la arquitectura moderna que marcaron el siglo XX. En dicha revisión bibliográfica se exploran las formas narrativas de discriminación sobre las aportaciones de arquitectas de la modernidad. Para ello se define una serie de categorías que se emplearán como herramientas de análisis: exclusión, invisibilización, seudoinclusión e inclusión. Una propuesta abierta cuya finalidad es señalar otras formas de leer y detectar prejuicios de cara a construir una historiografía inclusiva. El trabajo da cuenta de la sutil pero profunda desigualdad en el tratamiento hacia las mujeres arquitectas y diseñadoras, a la vez que demuestra de que manera las narrativas formales y lingüísticas se han constituido, organizado y consolidado en base a la supremacía masculina en la profesión.Objectius de Desenvolupament Sostenible::5 - Igualtat de gènereUniversitat Politècnica de CatalunyaMuxí Martínez, Zaida20182018-10-0520182018-10-23doctoral thesishttp://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_db06VoRhttp://purl.org/coar/version/c_970fb48d4fbd8a85info:eu-repo/semantics/doctoralThesisapplication/pdfhttps://hdl.handle.net/2117/123109https://dx.doi.org/10.5821/dissertation-2117-123109reponame:UPCommons.
