摘要：让·努维尔的“路易斯安那宣言”是他对于当今建筑的思考和想法最为深刻的表达。这篇文章和他的项目与短片，在2005年6月7日－9月18日，于丹麦的路易斯安那现代艺术博物馆展出。它曾以多种文字出版。其哲学的基本原则是，一个建筑是有生命的、唯一的、特殊的，并且要与其周围环境、场所精神和谐共处。该展览是让·努维尔工作室、特约馆长让－路易斯·弗洛门特和路易斯安那博物馆合作举办的。（维雷娜·辛德勒）

2005年，建筑更加倍地在消除地方的特征，把它们变得平庸无奇，蛮横地对待它们。它有时会取代风景，独自创造风景，这不过是另一种抹去风景的方式。但是，相反，路易斯安那是情感的震撼。体现出一个很快被遗忘的真理：建筑具有超越的能力。建筑能够显露地理、历史、色彩、植被、视野、光线。它以桀敖不驯、自然不做作的姿态来到这世界、并活着。它独一无二。它体现了路易斯安那精神。
它是一个小世界，一个气泡。没有任何形象、没有任何言论能够彰显它的深度。你必须身临其境才能体验到这一切，才会相信。建筑是我们世界的延伸，当世界不断在缩小时。当我们用愈来愈快的速度在全球到处跑；当我们聆听和观看相同的全球网络，分享相同的灾难所引起的震动；当我们随着相同的畅销歌曲的节奏跳舞，看着相同的球赛；当全球充斥着相同的影片，明星是全球人物；当一国总统想要统治世界；当我们到克隆商场购物，在同样的幕墙后头上班„„以及，当世界变小理当产生的好处不被列为全球重点课题时„„好比说，为什么教育无法通过相同的全球网络，更快速、确实地消除文盲？为什么能够拯救世界性流行病患者的药品无法及时送达？在这个追求高效率和盈利、配有一整套经济概念的意识形态特征愈来愈明显的世界，面对这些新情况，建筑同样难以幸免。
今天，全球化的影响不断深化，主流建筑旗帜鲜明地主张要“去脉络化”。然而，没有人去讨论这个急剧发展的形势所具有的意义：建筑评论，以建筑学科的界限为由，满足于美学和风格上的笼统论述，缺乏对现实的分析，并且忽略了重要的历史课题，亦即全球性建筑和“因地制宜”的建筑、普通性建筑和特殊性建筑之间日益强烈的对峙和冲突。今天的现代性难道只是直接继承20世纪的现代性、而不带任何批判精神？它难道只是在世界各地散播大量孤立存在的事物？它难道不应该去寻找理由、对应、相同、差异，以提出针对此时此地的特殊性建筑？路易斯安那作为具象征意义的角斗场，被选来进行这场犹如大卫对抗巨人歌利亚、“因地制宜”建筑的拥护者对抗“去脉络化”建筑的受益者的新战斗。毫无疑问，这场对抗比全球与地方之间的对抗更为深沉、复杂。 特殊性与知识的更新有关。建筑知识本质上就是多元多样、与所有文明发生联系的；旅行是建造者的文化素养上一个重要的组成部分。我们熟知希腊、罗马或埃及旅行对建筑师多么重要。路易斯安那则是加州之旅的结晶：在这里，同样是透过对照和汇整距离遥远的不同讯息，构思出能够诠释一个独特情况的建筑方案。
当然，普遍性建筑在20世纪简单化的现代主义意识形态所遗留下来的功能主义这块粪肥上蓬勃发展。《雅典宪章》当初也提倡人文主义精神，然而，狂热人士、犬儒者和腐败者进行大量教条式地歪曲模仿，留给了我们一个灾难性的都市遗产。以生活在这个世界的快乐之名，我们必须抗拒建立在区块、网络、格网基础上的城市主义。这样自动的腐化堕落，让世界各地、不论何种气候形态的城市失去了身份。它以克隆办公大楼、2 武汉科技大学本科毕业设计外文翻译
克隆住家、克隆商场为食。它渴求别人事先想好的想法、别人事先创造的景观，以避免自己去思考和观察。
对于这些普遍性和建筑上的领土整治规则，我们必须用建立在对有生命经验的景观所做的结构性分析的基础上所产生的其他规则来取代它们。没错，建筑！因为建筑存在于各个层次，而城市主义则不存在；那不过是卑屈顺服的建筑在宏观层次上所做的拙劣变装演出，它的发展是为了替大量普遍性建筑的到来铺路。我们必须建立敏感的、诗意的规则：谈论色彩、本质、个性、无拘无束地创造，结合雨、风、海、山相关的特殊性的建筑方向。会谈论时空的连续，会为传承下来的混乱指引转变、修改的方向，会关注我们城市的分形结构中每一个层级的规则。这些敏感的规则不得不去挑战普遍的意识形态；普遍的意识形态有不断扩散霸权主流技术、以产生依赖的趋势，它倾向将所有的交通、能源和卫生体系变得愈来愈巨大，制造出一个庞然大物。
相反地，特殊的意识形态渴望自主，渴望使用当地和不同时候所提供的资源，渴望对非物质的侧重。我们该如何使用当地、而不是别处的资源？我们该如何创造具差异性的建筑，而不落入对刻板印象的夸张模仿？我们该如何进行深化？建筑设计并非从无到有的创造。建筑意味着在现有和已存在的基础上加以改造、转化。建筑意味着激励深藏于场所自身的特质，而由此具有自我创造的倾向。它意味着揭示、指引方向。它意味着延续活的历史以及它过往的轨迹。它意味着倾听一个有生命的地方的呼吸和脉动。它意味着诠释这些律动用于创造。建筑必须被视为对一个物质、原子、生物连续体的改造。 它是在宏观与纳米物理学愈来愈令人头晕目眩之际，对我们这个广大世界里的某个片断的改造。不论转变、场所、建筑的规模是大是小，我们该如何表达一个有生命的断片发生转变时的难以预料？我们是否能够藉由符号、映像、种植来掌握可见的构成部分——云、植物、各种大大小小的生命机体？我们该如何创造出能够召唤隐藏的深度、灵魂的振动？这必然是一项诗意的任务，因为唯有诗懂得如何产生“瞬间的形而上学”：关于所能掌握的极限，关于奥秘、脆弱、自然；关于时间的作用、因年久而生成的色泽、会发生变化；关于不完美，因为不完美显露了我们可以达到的极限。那些扼杀情感的建筑不是具路易斯安那精神的建筑。而是在全球游走的艺术家兼建筑师、那些重复大师的作品，他们对完美、干枯、恒久不变的细节的追求，是情感无能的真实告白！ 重复制作“精通熟练的”细节，体现了他们对世界上建筑该有的本质感觉迟钝。大规模建造被误解！繁重和夸大是建筑上装腔作势的途径！细节就跟整体一样，是发明、移动、丰富世界的机会，是重新构成、重新组合、诱发各种质地、光线、不大可能的技术相遇的机会。然而，普遍性细节和普遍性建筑一样，属于预先制作、不存怀疑、没有危险、离可行的和可感觉的极限有一大段距离的领域；它以到处存在、到处可贩卖、传播一致性、扼杀差异、大量繁殖为使命。我们处在一种简单化思维的领地——系统的、使人放心的领地。我们距离产生吸引力的绝对条件——亦即自然不造作——非常遥远。能够在二元性、在对话当中创造独特性的建筑，能够面对一种情况来创造独特性的建筑，就是具路易斯安那精神的建筑。
这和那些不断重复某种形式、风格——它被视为“艺术家的签名”——的艺术家兼建筑师的态度完全相反。它和可以在任何时候空降到任何地方的建筑完全相反。这个全球现象是强调不属于任何场所、可以被移动位置、专为直接进入美术馆严密精确的白色格子而设计的20世纪艺术的延续。独立存在的建筑和可以孤立存在的艺术作品相反， 3 武汉科技大学本科毕业设计外文翻译
它注定要发生干扰，它的出现犹如荒唐可笑的拼贴、突如其来的喷嚏——不过可惜的是，建筑领域经常缺乏超现实主义的敏感度„„
建筑意味着某些人凭着他们的意志力、渴望和知识，在某个时代对某个地方进行改造。我们从来就不是在单独地建筑。我们总是在某处建筑——当然是为某个人或某些人，但也总是为所有人。我们必须停止将建筑局限在采借一种风格上。我们的时代需要不断怀疑、寻找、不认为自己已经找到答案的建筑师，需要不畏风险、重新发现实证主义价值观、在建造的同时发明建筑、会让自己讶异、会在自己窗户上发现霉菌并知道如何解读的建筑师。让我们将替虚荣的城市化妆的工作，留给那些自认为美容师的建筑师。从今而后，建筑将在不可言喻、含糊模棱和不完美中重新发现它的光环！只有当建筑师摔了跤并改变时，他才知道自己已经尽了最大的努力：从创造到改造；从断言到暗示；从建造到嵌入；从建构到渗透；从放置到迭置；从清晰到含糊；从增加到偏移；从书法到抓痕、涂抹„„
相对于“控制、留下永恒的记号”这些陈旧过时的建筑目标，我们今天要以寻找在某地生活的乐趣为目标。让我们记住，建筑同时也是一种压迫、制约行为的工具。我们永远别让任何人来查禁这个享乐主义式的追求，尤其是在我们身心获得全面发展所不可或缺的熟悉、亲密的领域。让我们表明我们的身份！每个人内心都有一个潜能的世界。我们要意识到自己的潜能，它和每个人的潜能一样，换言之，大多未被发掘，而且经常具有诗意，因此，是令人不安的。
不再有紧身衣，不再有现成的生活！不再有将我们数字化的数字建筑！不再有克隆城市，全球化的办公室，现成的家！我们希望能够继续旅行：聆听即兴演奏的音乐；体验承载着许多生活经验的景观；遇见创造他们文化的男男女女；发现陌生未知的颜色。建筑是变化的容器。建筑是不断遭到生命和事件渗透、更新的永恒。不可更改、从天而降的建筑，与所在地以及居住其中的人没有任何关联。
建筑必须被所在的地方和人所渗透，也要去对他们产生渗透：要具有强烈感受性，也要引起感动；要吸收，也要散发。让我们喜爱那些懂得如何聚焦的建筑：它如同光线一样闪耀；让你领略地形、大地的纹理；让你感受风、天空、土壤、水、火、气味、树、草、花、苔藓„„；记得地方风土人情、同时与我们世界的信息终端相联；还向我们呈现时代变迁以及穿越其间的人们。这样的建筑与它的时代和谐共处。仍在建造20世纪建筑范型的落后者染患了“历时”症、拒绝去感受他们的时代。建筑总是标注着日期。我们知道建筑终有一天会死的、是暂时存在的；我们知道它是有生命的。因此，我们看着它走出黑暗，并想像有一天它会回到那儿。
“因地制宜”、特殊的、具路易斯安那精神的建筑，在过去与未来、矿物与植物、瞬间与永恒、可见与不可见之间建立着一种联系。它们是显现与消失的所在地。它们不时暗示着自己缓慢而悲怆的毁灭。这个时间意识与居住其中的新生命所带来的惊奇，与黎明、黄昏的伟大节奏，以及不可避免的懒散和衰败时光所显露的无关紧要相重叠。具路易斯安那精神的建筑是梦中的建筑，是寂静无声的，既是遗忘之地，也是考古之地。它们成为对引发暖昧矛盾情绪的过去进行重新诠释的借口。
具路易斯安那精神的建筑令我们感动，因为它们被梦想出来，因为它们令人感到不安全、具反抗性；它们偶尔令人绝望、遇到灾难、或遭到扼杀，但从未被遗忘，因为正如凤凰浴火重生般，它们让我们想到用点线构成的永恒„„

具路易斯安那精神的建筑在材料和资源上的不确定性、简易性、甚至简陋性，滋生出这种建筑能够存在于各种经济环境的希望。基于这个原因，它可以渗透到任何地方，甚至包括我们的全球政治应该感到汗颜的贫民窟„„

Jean Nouvel’s LOUISIANA MANIFESTO is the most profound expreion of histhoughts and ideas about architecture today.Together with his projects and shortfilm sequences,the text was part of an exhibition at the Louisiana Museum ofModern Art in Denmark that was shown from June 7th through September 18th,2005.It was published in many languages.Fundamental to his philosophy is anarchitecture that is alive,unique,specific and in harmony with its surroundingsand the spirit of the place.The exhibition was a collaboration between AteliersJean Nouvel,guest curator Jean-Louis Froment and the Louisiana Museum.（Noteby Verena M.Schindler) More than ever before in 2005 architecture is annihilating and violating places,making them banal.Sometimes the landscape is replaced,created in the image of the architectureitself,which is nothing but another way of effacing it.In contrast,however,there is the case of Louisiana,an emotional shock.The living proof of a forgotten truth:architecture has the power to transcend.Architecture can reveal geographies,histories,colours,vegetations,horizons,and qualities of light.Impertinent and natural,architecture is in the world,alive,unique,Louisianan.As a microcosm,a bubble,no image or statement can plumb its depth.You have to be there to experience and believe it.Architecture is an expansion of our world at a time when that world is gettingsmaller.At a time when we rush acro the world faster and faster,when we listen to and watch the same global networks,share feelings aboutthe same disasters;when we dance to the same hits,watch the same matches;when we are flooded with the same films with their global screen stars;when the president of one country wants to rule the whole world;when we shop in cloned shopping centres,work behind the same eternalcurtainwalls...and,when whatever aspects of these factors that might be positive are notpartofglobalpriorities...Why,for instance,shouldn’t education eradicate illiteracy more quickly andsurely?Why doesn’t the medicine that saves the victims of pandemics get to them intime?Architecture is by no means spared of these new conditions of an efficient,profitableworld increasingly marked by an ideology delivered as the baggage of the economy.The global economy is accentuating the effects of the dominant architecture,the type that claims,‘We dont’ need context.’And yet there is no real debate about this galloping frenzy:invoking the limitsof the discipline architectural criticism is content with aesthetic and stylisticreflections devoid of any analysis of the real,ignoring the crucial historical clashthat－more insistently every day－sets global architecture against an architectureof situations,generic architecture against an architecture of specificity.Is our modernity today simply the direct descendant of the modernity of the20th century,devoid of any spirit of criticism?Does it simply consist of parachuting solitary objects onto the face of theplanet?Shouldnt’ it rather be looking for reasons,correspondences,harmonies anddifferences in order to propose an ad hoc architecture here and now?Louisiana is the symbolic arena for this new struggle of David and Goliath,between the partisans of situation architecture and the profiteers of de-contextualised architecture.Undoubtedly this confrontation runs deeper and is more complex than theiue of local against global.Specificity is linked to the actualization of knowledge.Architectural knowledgeis by nature diverse,given its links with all civilizations.Travel is an eentialelement in the cultivation of any builder.We are familiar with how journeys to Egypt,Greece and Rome are

importanttoarchitects.Louisiana is the result of a journey to California:the fruit of the graftingof information gathered from afar onto the interpretation of a uniquelocation.Generic architecture is certainly thriving on the compost,the Functionalistdroppings of the simplistic modern ideology of the 20th century.The AthensCharter set out to be humanist,but the equally dogmatic caricatures realized bythe submiive or the corrupt have left us with an oppreive urban heritage.In the name of the pleasure of living on this earth we must resist theurbanism of zones,networks and grids.Such developments are the automaticrot that is obliterating the identity of cities on all continents in all climates.These strategies feed on cloned offices,cloned dwellings and cloned shops.They thirst for what has already been thought and seen in order to avoidthinking and seeing.We must replace these generic rules,territorially and architecturally,withother rules based on the structural analysis of the lived landscape.Yes,architecturally!For architecture exists on all scales and urbanism does notUrbanism is nothing but the mocked-up travesty of a servile architecture on themacro-scale,advancing to prepare the way for the myriad of generic architectures.We must establish sensitive and poetic rules:approaches that speak of colours,eences,characters and the anomalies of the act of creation and the specificitiesof rain,wind,sea and mountains.Rules that speak of the temporal and spatial continuum that will turn the tidetowards a mutation modifying the inherited chaos and taking account of all thefractal scales of our cities.These sensitive rules cannot but defy the generic ideology that leads to theproliferation of hegemonic,dominant technologies.Creating dependencies andaimed for th‘ebottom line’,such a proliferation results in the hypertrophy of allour transportation,energy and hygiene systems.In contrast,the ideology of the specific aspires to autonomy,using theresources of actual place and time and such an ideology also privileges the non-material.How can we use what is here and nowhere else?How can we differentiate without caricaturing?How can we achieve depth?Architectural design on the large scale does not mean inventing ex nihilo.Architecture means transformation,organizing the mutations of what is alreadythere.Architecture means encouraging the embedding in the landscape of places thatanyway have a tendency to invent themselves.It means to reveal,to give direction.It means prolonging living history and its traces of past lives.It means listening to the breathing and pulsations of a living place.It means interpreting its rhythms in order to create.Architecture should be seen as the modification of a physical,atomic andbiological continuum.As the modification of a fragment situated at the heart of our immenseuniverse amidst the dizzying discoveries made by macro-and nanophysics.Whatever the scale of the transformation of a site or place,how can wecommunicate the unpredictability of the mutation of a living fragment?Can we domesticate the visible components－clouds,plant-life and livingorganisms of every size－with signs,reflections and new plantings?How does one create a vibration that evokes a hidden depth,a soul?This is surely a task for poetry since only poetry can produce‘the metaphysicsof the instant’:to work at the limits of the achievable with the mysterious,fragile and natural;to anticipate the weathering of time,i.e.,the resulting patina as materialschange and age with character;andto work with imperfection as a revelation of the limits of the acceible.These architectures that kill emotion are not Louisianan.They are the

work of globetrotting artist-architects,princes of repetition,specialists in the perfect,dry and perennial detail that are the true confeion ofemotional impotence! The repetition of the‘controlled’detail is proof of their insensitivity to thepoible nature of an architecture in the world.Ma construction is used as misconstruction!Weight and emphasis are understood as vectors of architectural pedantry!The detail－like the totality－is an opportunity to invent,dislocate,enrichthe world,recompose,reaemble and provoke confrontations of textures,lightand unlikely techniques.But generic detail,like generic architecture,manifests the prefabricated.Itrepresents an absence of doubt that takes no risks and holds back as far as poiblefrom the limits of the feasible and sensitive.Its vocation is to exist and sell itselfeverywhere,spreading uniformity and killing differences in order to proliferate.We are in the domain of simplistic thinking－of the systemic,the reauring.We are far from the sine qua non of seduction:the natural.An architecture that creates singularity in duality and is invented through theconfrontation with a situation is Louisianan.It opposes the attitudes of these artist-architects who follow a recipe ofrepeating a kind of formal order paed off as the‘signature of the artist’.Itopposes what can be dropped down on the landscape on any occasion in any place.This global phenomenon perpetuates an artistic tradition of the 20th centuryart that is in eence unsituated,dislocated and designed to take its place amongthe mathematical white boxes of the museums.Unlike these works of art that can function in isolation,autonomousarchitectures are doomed to the status of static interference,absurd collages andsudden sneezes that disturb their surroundings;and unfortunately Surrealistsensibility is rarely part of the mix...Architecture means the adaptation of the conditions of a place to a given timeby the willpower,desire and knowledge of certain human beings.We never do this alone.We always do it somewhere－certainly for some person or persons,butalways also for everyone.It is time we stop limiting architecture to the appropriation of a style.Our times need architects who doubt,who seek without thinking they havealready found,who put themselves at risk,who rediscover the values of empiricism,who invent architecture as they design it,who surprise themselves,who notice themildew on their windows and who know how to interpret it.Lets’ leave the cosmetics of vain cities to the architects who think of themselvesas aesthetes.From now on let architecture rediscover its aura in the inexpreible,thecloudy and imperfection of what is invented!The architect is not aware of having come to the end of his work until he slipsand shiftsfrom creation to modification,from aertion to allusion,from building-up to filling-in,from construction to infiltration,from positioning to super-positioning,from clearne to the nebulousne,from addition to deviation,from calligraphy to etching,to erasure...Instead of the archaic architectural goal of domination,i.e.,making a permanentmark,today we should prefer to seek the pleasure of living somewhere.Let us remember that architecture can also be an instrument of oppreion,atool for conditioning behaviour.Let us never permit anyone to censure this pursuit of pleasure especially in thedomain of the familiar and intimate that is so neceary to our wellbeing.Let us identify ourselves.Everyone bears a potential world within himself or herself.Let us be aware of our potential,which is equal to that of any human being－largely unexplored,often poetic and therefore disquieting.

No more corsets,no more ready-to-wear lives!No more architecture-by-numbers that turns us into numbers!No more cloned cities,global offices,pre-occupied homes!We want to be able to keep on travelling:to listen to spontaneous music,to live in landscapes as inhabited as a personalityto meet men and women who invent their own culture,to discover unknown colours.Architecture is the vehicle for variations.Architecture is permanence changed by life and events.Unchangeable architecture is not involved with the place and those who livethere.Architecture has to be impregnated and to impregnate in order:to be impreionable and impre andto absorb and emit.Let us love architecture that knows how to focus,that:shineslikealight;can let you read the topography,the lay of the land;can let you feel the wind,sky,soil,water,fire,flavours,trees,gra,flowers,mo...remembers the usages and customs of the place and at the same timeinterfaces with the information terminals of our world;and,shows us the historical ages and those who have journeyed through them.Such an architecture is built up in harmony with its time.The stragglers whoare still constructing the archetypes of the 20th century are diachronically ill,refusingtolivetheirlives.Architecture is dated.We know it to be mortal and endangered as sure as weknow it is alive.And so we watch it emerging from the darkne and imagine that it will returnthere one day.The architectures of situation,of the specific,the Louisianan architecturesweave bonds between the past and the future,the mineral and the vegetal,theinstantaneous and eternity,and the visible and the invisible.They are the loci of emergence and disappearance.They distil the eence of their own slow,poignant ruin.This consciousne of time overlays the surprises of the new lives lived in theplace,the great rhythms of dawn and twilight,the indifference of the inevitablehours of idlene and decay...Louisianan architectures are dreamed architectures,full of silences－notonly places of forgetfulne but also of archaeology.They become the cue for reinterpretations of an ambivalent past.Louisianan architectures move us because they have been dreamed into life,insecurity,resistance and sometimes despair;ruined or aainated,but neverforgotten because like the Phoenix disappearing in the flames only to be rebornthey make us dream of eternally recurring points of light...The uncertainty,simplicity and even the modesty of the Louisianan materialsand resources hold out the hope that Louisianan architecture can continue toexist in any economic condition even filtering through to the shameful shantytownsofourglobalpolitics...
