Andrés Jaque (born 1971 in Madrid) is an architect. His work explores the role architecture plays in the making of societies. He has been considered one of the most challenging contemporary European architects.〔Democracy in Space. A10. Mayo 2008.〕 In 2003 he founded the Office for Political Innovation,〔(Official website )〕 a trandisciplinary agency engaged with the making of an ordinary urbanism out of the association of heterogeneous architectural fragments.〔"Architecture as Rendered Socitety. Andrés Jaque in conversation with Ignacio González Galán" (Volume #33 Interiors. Rotterdam 2012) ()〕 In 2014 he won the Silver Lion to the Best Research Project at the 14th Venice Biennale directed by Rem Koolhaas. ==Life and career== In 2004, he completed the construction of ''Casa Sacerdotal Diocesana de Plasencia''. An interactive building designed to promote the public emergence of controversies among their users, mainly elder Catholic priests. What Jaque called a Parliamentary Architecture.〔Arquitectura Parlamento (Arquitectura COAM, Madrid 2007)〕 In 2005, he developed the ''12 Actions to Make Peter Eisenman Transparent''.〔"12 acciones para transparentar la Cidade da Cultura de Galicia de Peter Eisenman”. Pp.26-29 Pasajes de arquitectura y crítica. n.66 Madrid. Marzo〕 A project to make visible, and easy to understand for general public, the political implications of the construction of the singular building site Cidade da Cultura in Santiago de Compostela. A series of actions described by Bruno Latour as a «''beautiful mixture of art, politics and building-site''».〔12 acciones para trasparentar la ciudad de la cultura de Peter Eisenman” Pp.124-137 UR Arquitectura. Buenos Aires, 2007〕 TUPPER HOME, a system of tiny and colourful plastic dwellings, developed with the support of Tupperware, has been the smallest architectural project ever included as finalist for the European Union Prize for Contemporary Architecture Mies van der Rohe Award.〔European union Prize for Contemporary Architecture, Mies van der Rohe Award. Actar.Barcelona. 2009〕 In 2012 he was invited to intervene the Mies van der Rohe Barcelona Pavilion, following previous invitations to artist and architects like Ai Weiwei and Kazuyo Sejima. His intervention ‘PHANTOM. Mies as Rendered Society’ 〔(Barahona, Ethel. "The Value of the Infraordinary" (Domus. Milano 2013) )〕 made visible all the processes involved in the daily fabrication of the pavilion as an ordinary reality. Buckets, flags, chairs, old faded curtains, the salt that keeps the ponds pristine or the result of failed experiments carried out at the pavilion, were kept at the so far unnoticed basement. The intervention consisted on moving all those elements onto the upper floor. Works like ‘IKEA Disobedients’, or ‘PHANTOM, Mies as Rendered Society’ has presented a novel way of engaging architectural practices with research and for architecture as a discipline to gain political agency. He is also the author of other works like Teddy House (Vigo, 2003, 2005), Mousse City, (Stavanger, 2003), Peace Foam City (Ceuta, 2005), Skin Gardens (Barcelona, 2006), the Museo Postal de Bogotá (Bogotá, 2007), Rolling House for the Rolling Society (Barcelona, 2009), the House in Never Never Land (Ibiza, 2009), the ESCARAVOX, (Madrid, 2012), Hänsel and Gretel's Arenas (Madrid, 2013), Shading Devices and Gathering Space for Masdar in Abu Dhabi, Weizmann Square in Holon and Cosmo PS1 in New York. His work 'IKEA Disobedients' (Madrid, New York 2012) was the first architectural performance to be included in the MoMA's collection.〔IKEA Disobedients.
