Gammage Auditorium

Grady Gammage Memorial Auditorium, cunoscut mai ales sub numele prescurtat de Gammage Auditorium și adesea numit afecționat doar Gammage, este o sală de concerte polivalentă de pe campusul universitar al Arizona State University (ASU), din orașul Tempe, Arizona, parte a aglomerării urbane a zonei metropolitane Phoenix. Ultimul proiect desemnat a fi construit al arhitectului american Frank Lloyd Wright, Gammage Auditorium, numit după Grady Gammage, președintele ASU între 1953 și 1959, este atât unul din proiectele de deplină maturitate artistică ale lui Wright, cât și rezultatul efortului extraordinar a lui Gammage de a convinge pe absolut toată lumea (în ciuda adversităților întâmpinate de la legislatorii statului până la proprii săi colegii) că proiectul marelui arhitect american, creator al arhitecturii organice, este unicul care trebuie luat în considerare și finalizat. Rezultatul, o clădire deosebită cu o sală cu o acustică excelentă, care a fost un prilej de mândrie pentru toți încă de la inaugurarea sa. Ceremonia de începere a construcției a fost pe ziua de 23 mai 1962, iar structura, care s-a încadrat atât în timp cât și în buget, a fost terminată după 25 de luni. Ceremonia oficială de deschidere a fost încheiată de un concert simfonic susținut de Philadelphia Orchestra dirijată de Eugene Ormandy. Din păcate, nici Frank Lloyd Wright și nici Grady Gammage nu au putut vedea cu ochii lor rezultatul final al efortului lor comun. Amândoi au murit în 1959. Pentru ambii, 1964 a fost mult prea prea târziu. Structura Structura, de formă generală clar conturată, aidoma tuturor operelor lui Frankl Lloyd Wright, prezentând culorile deșertului Sonora, nisipiu, ocru, cărămiziu, maro-roșcat și ocazional alb, contrastând puternic cu diferitele nuanțe de verde ale vegetației, respectiv cu albastrul cerului, are aproximativ 93 de m lungime, 77 de m lățime și 25 de m înălțime. Cincizeci de coloane de beton armat, formând o elipsă cu excentricitate redusă, aproape circulară, ale căror capitolii se termină în două arcade semicirculare florale, susțin întreaga greutate a acoperișului, atât în afara clădirii cât și în interiorul acesteia. Două rampe prelungi de circa 65 de m, care constau din două plane înclinate, ce unesc nivelele al treilea și al doilea ale clădirii cu nivelul întăi, care este la nivelul parcării, sunt atașate clădirii în părțile de nord, respectiv de est-sud-est ale acesteia aidoma a două aripi ale unei păsări aflate în zbor. Sala de spectacole propriu-zisă a clădirii, având o acustică foarte bună, poate oferi maximum 3.017 locuri, dintre care 2.929 sunt fixe și 88 mobile, la cele trei nivele ale sale, parter, mezanin și balcon. Scena concepută a fi polifuncțională, poate găzdui spectacole de grand opera, operetă, Broadway musical, teatru, concerte simfonice, recitaluri de orgă, lecturări, muzică pop, rock, etc. Legături externe ASU Gammage Arhivat în 5 decembrie 2006, la Wayback Machine.

Templo de Gilbert

El Templo de Gilbert, Arizona, es uno de los templos construidos y operados por la Iglesia de Jesucristo de los Santos de los Últimos Días, el número 142 construido por la iglesia y el tercer templo construido en el estado de Arizona, ubicado en el pueblo de Gilbert, que es parte del Área metropolitana de Phoenix. El segundo templo de Arizona fue el templo de Snowflake, dedicado en 2002 por Gordon B. Hinckley. En abril de 2008, el presidente de la iglesia SUD, Thomas S. Monson anunció la construcción de dos templos en Arizona, uno a ser ubicado en Gilbert y el Templo del valle del Gila al este del estado, en Gila Valley.​ Luego en abril de 2008, Monson y la Primera Presidencia anunciaron los planes para la construcción de un quinto templo en el oeste del área Metropolitana de Phoenix.​ Los tres últimos templos de Arizona constituyen los primeros templos anunciados por Monson en su función de presidente de la iglesia SUD.​​​ El templo está ubicado en la intersección de las avenidas Pecos y Greenfield, una zona de rápido crecimiento urbano al sureste de Phoenix. Historia El templo de Gilbert, Arizona, fue aprobado en vista del incremento en fieles SUD en la zona y dar así alivio a los requerimientos impuestos al Templo de Mesa. La iglesia anunció los planes de construir un templo en Arizona en el año 2008, poco después de que Thomas S Monson asumiese el puesto de presidente de la Iglesia SUD. Fue uno de los tres templos anunciados ese año en Arizona. Siguiendo la tradición originada en la construcción de los templos previos al de Gilbert, se construyó el edificio en el centro de una comunidad de fieles que vivía en la región.​ Construcción El consejo legislativo de Gilbert aprobó unánimemente la construcción del nuevo templo. En vista de que los códigos de la ciudad no limitan la altura de pináculos, el templo no requería de permisos adicionales para extender su pináculo a 180 pies (54,9 m). La altura máxima permitida para construcciones en Gilbert es de 45 pies (13,7 m), por lo que la ciudad debió otorgar aprobación para la construcción planificada de 85 pies (25,9 m) de altura para del templo.​ Seguido el anuncio público, la iglesia en Gilbert buscó un terreno adecuado, de unas 8 hectáreas. El terreno fue dedicado poco después y la ceremonia de la primera palada tuvo lugar el 13 de noviembre de 2010 presidida por Claudio R. M. Costa.​​​ El edificio fue construido de concreto armado, con un diseño neoclásico de un solo pináculo y consta de tres salones para las ordenanzas SUD y siete salones para sellamientos matrimoniales. El templo tiene un total de 7.700 metros cuadrados de construcción. Dedicación El templo SUD de la ciudad de Gilbert fue dedicado para sus actividades eclesiásticas el 2 de marzo de 2014, por Henry B. Eyring.​ Con anterioridad a ello, la iglesia permitió un recorrido público de las instalaciones y del interior del templo al que asistieron más de 200.000 visitantes. Referencias
