Mirko Zardini (born 1955) is the current Director and a member of the Board of Trustees of the Canadian Centre for Architecture (CCA) in Montreal, Canada.〔(“Mirko Zardini Appointed as New Director of the CCA” ) ''Canadian Architect'' (Toronto, Canada), 31 May 2005. Retrieved 21 July 2015.〕 He is an architect who teaches, curates exhibitions, and writes about contemporary architecture and urban issues.〔(ICAM News )〕 Zardini is an active member and former trustee of the Association of Art Museum Directors (AAMD), is on the Executive Committee of the International Confederation of Architectural Museums (ICAM),〔(ICAM Executive Committee )〕 and a member of the Canadian Art Museum Directors Organization (CAMDO). ==Canadian Centre for Architecture (CCA)== Zardini was Senior Consulting Curator of the Canadian Centre for Architecture (CCA) from 2003-2005 and was appointed Director and Chief Curator in 2005. He has shaped the institution's collection, research, exhibitions, programs and publications to emphasize the CCA’s role as a venue for critical discourse about contemporary culture and the relationship of architecture to politics and society.〔Andrade, Sérgio C. (“Entrevista Mirko Zardini” ) ''Público'' (Lisbon, Portugal), 6 November 2014. Retrieved 21 July 2015.〕 His thematic approach often juxtaposes contradictory ideas to highlight the complexity of social and urban issues.〔Makovsky, Paul. (“2012 Game Changers: Mirko Zardini” ), ''Metropolis Magazine'' (New York, NY), January 2012. Retrieved 21 July 2015.〕 The CCA’s collection of international architectural archives received significant additions during Zardini’s ongoing tenure, most notably those of Pritzker-prize-winner Álvaro Siza Vieira,〔(“Álvaro Siza’s Archive” )〕 Abalos & Herreros〔(“Out of the Box: Ábalos & Herreros” )〕 and Foreign Office Architects. A research project on the early application of digital tools in architectural design developed in collaboration with architect Greg Lynn resulted in the exhibition series "Archaeology of the Digital"〔(“Archaeology of the Digital” )〕〔(“Archaeology of the Digital: Media and Machines” )〕 and also led to the acquisition of digital project archives by the featured architects including Chuck Hoberman, Shoei Yoh, and others. The exhibition program developed under Zardini has been recognized internationally. ''Design Observer'' named “Imperfect Health: The Medicalization of Architecture” the best exhibition of 2012〔Lange, Alexandra and Lamster, Mark. (“Lunch With The Critics: Third-Annual Year-End Awards” ) ''Design Observer'', 10 December 2012. Retrieved on 21 July 2015〕 and published a review stating “it is worth noting that this show is just the latest in a series of inventive exhibitions that engage in social themes (energy consumption, proactive urbanism, war) undertaken by the CCA under Zardini, shows that together reassert that institution’s place as a center of architectural culture.”〔Lamster, Mark. (“Life Support: Can Architecture Make Us Healthy?” ) ''Design Observer'', 6 January 2012. Retrieved on 21 July 2015.〕 About the exhibition “Architecture in Uniform: Designing and Building for the Second World War”, ''The New York Times'' architecture critic Nicolai Ouroussoff wrote “Simply put, it’s one of the most important architecture exhibitions I’ve seen in years.”〔Ouroussoff, Nicolai. (“Wartime Architects: Creating Amid Chaos” ) ''The New York Times'', 1 June 2011. Retrieved on 21 July 2015.〕 Zardini is an advocate for online access and the need to strengthen long-distance research tools and collaborative digital projects for a global audience. In his 2012 text “A Project for Two Buildings”, Zardini outlines his vision for an institution with “two buildings: the physical one, anchored to a specific place, and the digital, accessed online from any place at any time.”〔Zardini, Mirko. “A Project for Two Buildings”. (''icamprint 04'' ), p.30. International Confederation of Architectural Museums (Vienna, Austria), 2012 . Retrieved 14 July 2015.〕 He launched the CCA's digital book publishing initiative with an electronic version of the exhibition catalogue for "Imperfect Health: The Medicalization of Architecture” and then created a digital-only epub series featuring individual projects from the "Archeology of the Digital" exhibitions.〔(Canadian Centre for Architecture on iBooks )〕 The series was designed and developed by the New York-based graphic design studio Linked by Air and features technical innovations such as interactive slideshows and responsive design within the standard formats of reflowable e-books.〔(“Linked by Air on Archaeology of the Digital” ) Retrieved 15 July 2015.〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Mirko Zardini」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
