Download or read book Art Books written by Wolfgang M. Freitag and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-10-28 with total page 550 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1997. For this second edition of Art Books: A Basic Bibliography of Monographs on Artists, the vast number of new books published since 1985 was surveyed and evaluated. This has resulted in the selection of 3,395 additional titles. These selections, reflective of the increase in the monographic literature on artists during the last ten years, are evidence of the activities of a larger number of art historians in more countries worldwide, of the increasingly diverse and ambitious exhibition programs of museums whose number has also increased dramatically, and also of a lively international art market and the attendant gallery activities. The selections of the first edition have been reviewed, errors have been corrected and important new editions and reprints have been noted. The second edition contains 278 names of artists not represented in the first edition.

Download or read book Modern Architectural Theory written by Harry Francis Mallgrave and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2009-07-13 with total page 584 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Modern Architectural Theory is the first book to provide a comprehensive survey of architectural theory, primarily in Europe and the United States, during three centuries of development. In this synthetic overview, Harry Mallgrave examines architectural discourse within its social and political context. He explores the philosophical and conceptual evolution of its ideas, discusses the relation of theory to the practice of building, and, most importantly, considers the words of the architects themselves, as they contentiously shaped Western architecture. He also examines the compelling currents of French rationalist and British empiricist thought, radical reformation of the theory during the Enlightenment, the intellectual ambitions and historicist debates of the nineteenth century, and the distinctive varieties of modern theory in the twentieth century up to the profound social upheaval of the 1960s. Modern Architectural Theory challenges many assumptions about architectural modernism and uncovers many new dimensions of the debates about modernism.
Download or read book Bauten und Projekte written by Heinz Mohl and published by Edition Axel Menges. This book was released on 1994 with total page 298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Friedrich Weinbrenner and Heinrich Hubsch made Karlsruhe into a centre of European architecture even in the early nineteenth century. The Karlsruhe School still has an outstanding reputation today, deriving not least from Egon Eiermann's educational influence after the Second World War.Like his teacher Eiermann in his day, Heinz Mohl has for several decades been one of the most prominent architects in the German-speaking countries. Whether he is working on green field sites or in historically demanding contexts, Mohl's buildings always show a typological stringence and formal rigour that are rare even by international standards. Mohl's CEuvre is as richly faceted as it is noteworthy in terms of architectural theory, and his recherche typologique can be named in the same breath as the intellectual approach taken by architects like Oswald Mathias Ungers, Karljosef Schattner or Josef Paul Kleihues. A thorough and critical appreciation of Mohl is thus long overdue.This survey of the work anddevelopment of the Karlsruhe architect and academy teacher is intended to fill this gap with a wealth of material, some of it familiar, but a great deal that is largely unknown. Beyond this it is intended as an impressive demonstration of the outstanding significance of Mohl's architectural theory and practice precisely in times of ever more rapidly changing fashions and isms, as it vividly reflects the way in which a vigorous master builder is addressing the gradual disappearance of high-quality architectural creation from our everyday life.Frank R. Werner held the chair of building history and architectural theory at the Kunstakademie in Stuttgart from 1990 to 1993, since 1993he has been Director of the Institut fur Architekturgeschichte und Architekturtheorie at the Bergische

Download or read book Digital Modernism Heritage Lexicon written by Cristiana Bartolomei and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-08-11 with total page 1385 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book investigates the theme of Modernism (1920-1960 and its epigones) as an integral part of tangible and intangible cultural heritage which contains the result of a whole range of disciplines whose aim is to identify, document and preserve the memory of the past and the value of the future. Including several chapters, it contains research results relating to cultural heritage, more specifically Modernism, and current digital technologies. This makes it possible to record and evaluate the changes that both undergo: the first one, from a material point of view, the second one from the research point of view, which integrates the traditional approach with an innovative one. The purpose of the publication is to show the most recent studies on the modernist lexicon 100 years after its birth, moving through different fields of cultural heritage: from different forms of art to architecture, from design to engineering, from literature to history, representation and restoration. The book appeals to scholars and professionals who are involved in the process of understanding, reading and comprehension the transformation that the places have undergone within the period under examination. It will certainly foster the international exchange of knowledge that characterized Modernism
