RESUMO

The city and the landscape are built, throughout the time, from the interactions between transformations and continuities. In a registered historic site, questions linked to the preservation of the memory and the identity give especial rules to this game: continuities seem to gain advantage over transformations. In this context, as the year of 2007 represents not only the 50th anniversary of the Pilot Plan for the New Capital, but at the same time the 20th anniversary of its inclusion in the UNESCOs list as a world patrimony and the 100th anniversary of Niemeyer, Brasilia reveals itself an important point of analysis. Therefore, we define the intent of this dissertation observing this city in a critic way, and more specifically, its Monumental Axis (from the Three Powers Square till the Bus Terminal Platform): discuss the identity by means of the continuities and transformations but at the same time we do have the urban void as a construction element derived from the modernist identity to be preserved like a tool of research. Our study has three parts. Firstly, we discuss the identity and its relation with the patrimony, modernity and urbanism. Consecutively, our text reveals the urban void as a construction tool through some readings of the brazilian urbanistic field. At last, we analyze the identity which appeared as a result of continuities and transformations by means of the study of the void in 3 moments: 1957, 1987 and 2007. At last, our final considerations enable a better understanding of the Monumental Axis, which works with the urban voids as a research tool. If the city planning field requires a permanent movement, this dissertation seeks to contribute in this way since we explore theoretical heritages and we superpose temporalities and spacealities.
