Our contribution registers in a reasoned mode, the line and relationship between the city of Tel Aviv and the sea, they are 16 km of a rapid sequence of events in a period of only 70 years, a "pastoral" beach that has been transformed into a metropolis and the first interests for an wxtension of the city towards the sea are sprouting on the horizon through the creation of artificial islands. In our pavilion we will want to acceot this challenge and propose concepts and ideas, a reference platform for these future projects. For these utopistic, but not overly so, projects we thought it would be interesting to call upon some of the former Radicals and with them verify the metamorphosis of the city of Tel Aviv at the same time the metamorphosis of utopias and their roles in architecture and not lastly, the metamorphosis of the architect and his language. No longer having established groups, we cannot proceed with summoning the historical entity of the group, but we believe it valid to adopt a representative system.
