Chipperfield. The genesis and characteristics of the urban context shaping the consolidated city related to the project are analyzed. The nineteenth-century urban plan as well as the dynamics and transformations that take place in a context influenced by a constantly changing tourism model are particularly addressed. Chipperfield's approach to the expansion of the MAN is explored regarding the compositional strategies through which both scale relationships and meaning variations of the context’s features are regulated, i.e., just as they are configured in the contemporary city. These strategies are continuously compared with the Neues Museum in Berlin which has also been designed by D. Chipperfield. Finally, the text reflects on the role of the contemporary museum as not only a complex organism but also an integral part of the urban fabric by means of strategies which -taking into account the specific Athenian condition- seem to prelude a contextualist minimalism. El texto estudia el trasfondo e implicaciones teóricas del proyecto de ampliación del Museo Arqueológico Nacional de Atenas (MAN), ideado por el arquitecto D. Chipperfield. Se analizan los orígenes y características del contexto urbano que constituye la ciudad consolidada, a la cual el proyecto se relaciona, con particular referencia al diseño urbano del siglo XIX, así como también a las dinámicas y transformaciones que tienen lugar en dicho contexto bajo la influencia de un modelo turístico en constante transformación. Se examina asimismo la aproximación de D. Chipperfield al proyecto de ampliación, indagando las estrategias compositivas a través de las cuales se regulan las relaciones de escala y las variaciones de significado, a las que están sometidos los elementos del contexto, tal como se configuran en la ciudad contemporánea. Estas estrategias se estudian además a través de una constante comparación con el Neues Museum de Berlín, diseñado por el mismo D. Chipperfield. Finalmente, el texto reflexiona sobre el rol del museo contemporáneo como organismo complejo y como parte integrante del tejido urbano, a través de estrategias que, en la específica condición ateniense, parecen preludiar un minimalismo contextualista.
