C'est ce qui est arrivé à la modernité architecturale, bien connue pour ses héros, ses icônes, ses manifestes et ses intentions sociales généreuses. Mais comment l'architecture, art de l'utilitas, aurait-elle pu se délier des contraintes du XXe siècle? Elle est bien la fille des mythes, des contradictions, des aspirations et plus encore, des rapports de force en transformation du siècle passé"--

Book excerpt: Trois ensembles composent le volume : Théorie de la réception et réception de l'architecture ; Distance, temps et lieux de la réception ; Les instruments de la réception de l'architecture. La diversité des approches proposées, et leur enrichissement mutuel, élargit le champ de la question délicate de la réception de l’architecture. Au-delà de l’intérêt scientifique des différentes contributions, le volume trouve aussi sa légitimité dans le fait que l’examen de la réception s’impose comme une condition de la connaissance des projets et de la préservation physique des édifices.

Book excerpt: Depuis sa première édition en langue anglaise, en 2002, L'Architecture moderne d'Alan Colquhoun a été traduit en plusieurs langues. Le lecteur francophone peut enfin découvrir cet ouvrage qui fait déjà partie des textes majeurs sur l'histoire de l'architecture du XXe siècle. Cette étude sonde les motivations complexes à l'origine de la modernité. Elle évalue les victoires et les échecs de ce mouvement révolutionnaire. Alan Colquhoun réexamine le travail des principaux architectes de la période - Frank Lloyd Wright, Adolf Loos, Le Corbusier, Mies van der Rohe... - fournissant au lecteur un nouvel éclairage sur leur rôle de maîtres reconnus. Il explore l'évolution du mouvement moderne, de l'Art nouveau des années 1890 aux mégastructures des années 1960. Il révèle les exigences souvent contradictoires entre forme, fonction, engagement social, modernité et tradition
Download or read book Arieh Sharon and Modern Architecture in Israel written by Eran Neuman and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-11-30 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Arieh Sharon and Modern Architecture in Israel: Building Social Pragmatism offers the first comprehensive survey of the work of Arieh Sharon and analyzes and discusses his designs and plans in relation to the emergence of the State of Israel. A graduate of the Bauhaus, Sharon worked for a few years at the office of Hannes Mayer before returning to Mandatory Palestine. There, he established his office which was occupied in its first years in planning kibbutzim and residential buildings in Tel Aviv. After the establishment of the State of Israel in 1948, Arieh Sharon became the director and chief architect of the National Planning Department, where he was asked to devise the young country’s first national masterplan. Known as the Sharon Plan, it was instrumental in shaping the development of the new nation. During the 1950s and 1960s, Sharon designed many of Israel’s institutions, including hospitals and buildings on university campuses. This book presents Sharon’s exceptionally wide range of work and examines his perception of architecture in both socialist and pragmatist terms. It also explores Sharon’s modernist approach to architecture and his subsequent shift to Brutalist architecture, when he partnered with Benjamin Idelson in the 1950s and when his son, Eldar Sharon, joined the office in 1964. Thus, the book contributes a missing chapter in the historiography of Israeli architecture in particular and of modern architecture overall. This book will be of interest to researchers in architecture, modern architecture, Israel studies, Middle Eastern studies and migration of knowledge.
Download or read book The Challenge of Change Dealing with the Legacy of the Modern Movement written by D. van den Heuvel and published by IOS Press. This book was released on 2008-09-11 with total page 568 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Conservation of architecture - and the conversation of Modern architecture in particular – has assumed new challenges. Rather than attempting to return a Modern building to its resumed original state, the challenge of these proceedings is to revalue the essence of the manifold manifestations of Modern architecture and redefine its meanings in a rapidly changing world of digital revolution, worldwide mobility and environmental awareness. This volume aims to provide a variety of platforms for the exchange of ideas and experience. A large, international group of architects, historians, scholars, preservationists and other parties involved in the processes of preserving, renovating and transforming Modern buildings has been invited to investigate the paradox of the Modern monument, and to reflect on the manifold dilemmas of change and continuity. The general theme is elaborated through five sub-themes. The sub-theme ‘Change and Continuity’ addresses the tensions between change and continuity from a historical-theoretical perspective. ‘Restructuring Cities and Landscapes’ focuses on the larger scale of city and landscape, while ‘Shifts in Programme and Flexibility’ draws attention to the scale of the building or building complex, and questions limits of re-use and flexibility. The fourth sub-theme deals with education and the fifth sub-theme ‘Progress, Technology and Sustainability’ considers specific issues of techniques and materials.
Download or read book The Challenge of Change written by Dirk van den Heuvel and published by IOS Press. This book was released on 2008 with total page 568 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The legacy of the Modern Movement has gained legendary status, largely as a result of the appreciation of the masterworks and the visionary architectural concepts. In the reality of everyday life, however, it has been difficult to maintain the architectural creations of the Modern Movement in such a way that they still reflect the original intentions of their designers. Many buildings and ensembles of the Modern Movement have already been saved; the icons amongst these have even become so precious that they are treated like pieces of art rather than as buildings in everyday use. But despite the successes that have been achieved, many buildings and ensembles are still at risk of demolition or maltreatment. The bi-annul international conference is one means by which it is possible to continue furthering the aims of Docomomo. Knowing that many modern architects aimed at functionality and changeability, the challenge for today is how to deal with the modern heritage in relation to its continuously changing context, including physical, economic and functional changes, as well as socio-cultural, political and scientific ones. It is with this in mind that conservation in general, and the conservation of modern architecture in particular, has become a new challenge. Rather than attempting to return a modern building to its presumed original state, our challenge is to revalue the essence of the manifold manifestations of modern architecture and redefine its meanings in our changing world of digital revolution, worldwide mobility and environmental awareness."--Jacket.

Download or read book Sport and Violence Rethinking Elias written by Dominique Bodin and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-07-26 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The aim of this book, in discussing Elias’s theory, is not to refute it. Tendentiously, the theory works with its weaknesses and strong points and it has been enriched by a number of authors over time. The objective of this volume is to discuss the blind spots and, more simply, what is too often taken for granted: namely the obvious pacifying effect of sports and/or produced by sports. This analysis has been guided by two perspectives: the sociological one which questions the "naturalization" of sport which is also the naturalization of the "wildlings" which have to be civilized, and the other which comes from philosophical anthropology and attempts to comprehend the long term characteristics of this union – or disunion – of sport and violence.
Download or read book Photography Reconstruction and the Cultural History of the Postwar European City written by Tom Allbeson and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-11-16 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Examining imagery of urban space in Britain, France and West Germany up to the early 1960s, this book reveals how photography shaped individual architectural projects and national rebuilding efforts alike. Exploring the impact of urban photography at a pivotal moment in contemporary European architecture and culture, this book addresses case studies spanning the destruction of the war to the modernizing reconfiguration of city spaces, including ruin photobooks about bombed cities, architectural photography of housing projects and imagery of urban life from popular photomagazines, as well as internationally renowned projects like UNESCO’s Paris Headquarters, Coventry Cathedral and Berlin’s Gedächtniskirche. This book reveals that the ways of seeing shaped in the postwar years by urban photography were a vital aspect of not only discourses on the postwar city but also debates central to popular culture, from commemoration and modernization to democratization and Europeanization. This book will be a fascinating read for researchers in the fields of photography and visual studies, architectural and urban history, and cultural memory and contemporary European history.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: C'est en mars 1926 que se tint à Nancy, à l'initiative du jeune Comité Nancy-Paris, une grande exposition d'art contemporain qui se voulait la présentation au grand public des " pièces du procès moderne ". La section d'architecture, initiée par André Lurçat, est depuis lors considérée comme la première manifestation internationale du Mouvement moderne. Dans le prolongement de l'exposition reconstituée en 2006 à Nancy, s'est déroulé, sous l'égide de Catherine Coley et Danièle Pauly (ENSA-Nancy / LHAC), le colloque intitulé Nancy 1926, le printemps du Mouvement moderne, quand l'architecture internationale s'exposait ; ce colloque s'est donné comme ambition de reconsidérer la place de l'événement nancéien de 1926 et plus largement d'évoquer les modes de diffusion de l'architecture des années 20, notamment les nouveaux outils de transmission. Partant de l'analyse du contexte local et national, les communications évoquent la scène internationale et précisent l'engagement de certains pays - et de leurs représentants - dans cette dynamique de groupe, où certaines individualités apparaissent aussi importantes que les réseaux relationnels. Les actes du colloque sont complétés par une étude inédite rassemblant et présentant toutes les expositions tenues en Europe et aux Etats-Unis entre 1922 et 1932, et qui ont servi la diffusion internationale de l'avant-garde architecturale européenne.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cet essai veut apporter une contribution à l'analyse de la modernité. Ce texte la décrit comme une double rupture avec l'intériorité : la modernité effectue une coupure souvent violente avec la tradition, et elle veut amener l'homme à une nouvelle manière d'être au monde. L'architecture phénomène central de la modernité, vise à réformer le monde vécu afin de rendre possible une existence nouvelle, un Esprit Nouveau. Les textes et les œuvres de Le Corbusier expriment une telle volonté de briser les habitudes anciennes par la transformation de l'espace architectural et par la création d'une poésie nouvelle.
