Resumo

This work is the result of a research and analysis of life paths, artistic construction and experiences in theatre and architecture by Edward Gordon Craig (1872 - 1966), actor, director, designer, printmaker, costume designer and British set designer and architect, draftsman, French-Swiss painter and sculptor Charles-Edouard Jeanneret-Gris (1887 - 1965), known as Le Corbusier. It comprises a reading about the transformation of the theatrical and architectural space, based on the consequences of the social and cultural transformations of their times, with the observation of personal and professional particularities that have shown them as symbols in modern staging and architecture. Gordon Craig, for the rupture he built in front of the realistic and naturalistic theatre, constituted a new thought for the staging and for the modern theatre. Le Corbusier was guided artistically and technically, by the social, cultural and industrial changes that took place after the First and Second World War in Europe, in face of the machinations of the architectural production of that time. I discuss their new proposals to new spatialities in staging and architecture, based on the observation and analysis of some aspects that relate architecture to theatre, constituting, in this sense, a staging architecture. I highlight Gordon Craig's experience in Hamlet for the Moscow Art Theatre in 1912, with his Screens project and Le Corbusier's in symbolizing the human being by the Modulor, the measurement system he created. I still talk about Craig’s and Corbusier’s spaces as spaces in performance, full of symbolic meanings, memorial and historical potentials. Finally, the observation of the possible methods and concepts used by Gordon Craig and Le Corbusier in the planning and production of their spaces, under the perspective that they are potentially didactic and pedagogical for a new perception in the teaching of space in theatre and architecture.
