Healthcare buildings and the construction of Modernity. The IPO Complex

Ana Tostões, Daniela Arnaut

Resumo


The Portuguese Institute of Oncology (IPO), built between 1927 and 1948, with additions until 1966, is the result of public health policies undertaken in Portugal for the study and treatment of cancer. He composes the Portuguese repertoire of modern constructions for health, and presents himself as a reference in relation to the social, urban and architectural innovations of his time. In order to explore and value its cultural value, this article aims to discuss the public and institutional importance of the IPO, as well as the concerns about its intense daily use and its adaptations to a future that is sustainable.
