Pantalla Pavelló | Architecture in the Family: Concrete Love by Maurizius Staerkle-Drux

With summer comes Pantalla Pavelló, the al fresco cinema cycle at the Mies van der Rohe Pavilion that turns the travertine wall into a big screen. A different cinema accompanied by a presentation and a space for conversation to contextualize each of the films.

This year’s cycle, under the title Architecture in the Family, brings us three films that bring us closer to the family relationships of renowned architects, with a strong and unique personality that inspire their sons and daughters to follow in their creative footsteps. We see how this confronts them with the dual desire to be like the father and to be both critical and independent from him. All three films build the story through buildings, letters and memories, revealing characters and conflicts that speak of universal feelings.

Title: Concrete Love
Director: Maurizius Staerkle-Drux
Year: 2013
Timing: 104′
Place: Switzerland

The son of a master church builder, Gottfried Böhm was the patriarch of a saga of modern architecture who, until the age of 94, continued to contribute daily to the studio’s projects. His sons Stephan, Peter and Paul managed to get out of their father’s shadow but the crisis in the German construction sector, among other things, spurred competition between the brothers. The film draws an intimate and timely portrait of the complexity and inseparability of life, love, faith, art and architecture from the moment when the death of his wife Elisabeth, also an architect and source of inspiration for all the Böhms, it means the breaking of the family’s emotional thread.

Presented by Paul Böhm, arquitect, one of the main characters of the film, son of the arquitect Gottfried Böhm.
