| الوصف: | The Mission’s main objectives for the 2018-2019 period have not changed, however, the locations for surveys and field research and the goals which primarily involve university dissemination have expanded significantly; that is, our goals have changed in space and time. Major project efforts are reported chronologically below, but not in a diary-entry format. In 2018 we took significant steps to present Fathy's architectural achievements from a fresh perspective, which is our primary long-term goal. We contacted the Digital Library of the American University in Cairo's Rare Books and Special Collections to gain insight into the rich Fathy collection of archival plans and photos. Most of the known publications use some of the designs and photos in the collections, but the abundance of the materials reviewed exceeded our expectations. In other words, the designs, sketches and photos which appear in the publications are drawn from a small pool of materials, often repeating themselves and representing the same “point of view.” This may be because authors, even if they are familiar with the venues, are more influenced by earlier publications than by the interconnections observed on site. One of the basic goals of our mission has been to observe and document exactly what happened, then to compare the buildings with Fathy's plans and original ideas. This is probably the reason why, while studying the AUC -RBSCL archives, we felt that many of the details in the collection are more important to us than the works of those academics who offer a less critical insight into Fathy’s works. The archive holds thousands of drawings, plans, sketches, and notes as well as photos, which are invaluable treasures that serve as very important sources for achieving our goals. A visit to the collection led to the conclusion of a Cooperation Agreement, which we signed at the beginning of the following year. |
