No references found | Located in the centre of Jerez's old town in an area bounded by the old Almohad rampart and two quarters, San Miguel and Santiago (both historic crucibles of flamenco art), the site and programme presented two main challenges: to insert a large new volume into a dense urban matrix of modestly scaled buildings and labyrinthine streets, and to interpret in the folkloric traditions of flamenco in a cultivated, contemporary way. Restoration work has been carried out on the Almohad Mosque at Tin Mal, the Koutoubia Mosque in Marrakesh and the vibrant Rue Nejjarine, a major artery in the old medina in Fez, but many later structures have either been altered, abandoned or demolished. Almohad, forcefully ridden from the front by apprentice Paul Doe, was another appropriate winner in the conditions as the gelding is owned by Janet and Tony Mudd. |
