Mapiranje prostorov modernističnih mest v kontekstu načel CIAM-ove Atenske listine

Zbornik prinaša prispevke mednarodne konference, ki je rezultat aplikativnega projekta Mapiranje urbanih prostorov slovenskih mest v zgodovinskem okviru: Nova Gorica in njeni konteksti (L6-8262), ki ga financirajo ARRS, Mestna občina Nova Gorica in SAZU. Prispevki v zborniku na primerih mest, ki so bila v 20. stoletju na novo zgrajena na področju Sovjetske zveze, Nemčije, Italije, Baltskih držav, Irana in Slovenije, kritično presojajo Atensko listino, ki je na 4. kongresu CIAM-a (Congrès internationaux d'architecture moderne) leta 1933 utemeljila načela funkcionalističnega mesta, v ospredje razmislekov pa zbornik postavlja Novo Gorico. Prispevki so razvrščeni v sedem tematskih sklopov, ki naslavljajo vrsto do sedaj redko tematiziranih vidikov: nastanek in utemeljitev funkcionalističnega mesta, središče funkcionalističnih novih mest in identiteta mesta, enoličnost ali raznolikost modernistične stanovanjske arhitekture, pozabljena in propadajoča industrijska dediščina, sakralna arhitektura v novih funkcionalističnih mestih, spomeniki v javnem prostoru modernističnih mest, mapiranje in vizualizacija mestnega prostora.

Art and its Responses to Changes in Society

  • Categories: Art

Art and its Responses to Changes in Society brings together studies of young researchers dealing with the topics of decline, transformation, and rebirth from various points of view, characteristic of several different fields of the humanities and social sciences, in order to yield new insights into the analyzed subjects. The topics discussed here are diverse: on the one hand, several chapters deal with the metamorphosis of particular pictorial or architectural motifs and concepts, while on the other, studies are included that are dedicated to the analysis of the opera of individual artists, to various periods in architecture and landscape architecture, and to national and state commissions in art, as well as representations of WW2 atrocities in Yugoslavia and attempts to artistically reaffirm Christian symbolism after the end of socialism. As such, the book entails diverse scientific perceptions of art and society, from antiquity to modernity, from architecture to moving picture, from the USA to Yugoslavia, and from research on an object to observations on a concept.

Architectural Drawings as Investigating Devices

Architectural Drawings as Investigating Devices explores how the changing modes of representation in architecture and urbanism relate to the transformation of how the addressees of architecture and urbanism are conceived. The book diagnoses the dominant epistemological debates in architecture and urbanism during the 20th and 21st centuries. It traces their transformations, paying special attention to Le Corbusier and Ludwig Mies van der Rohe’s preference for perspective representation, to the diagrams of Team 10 architects, to the critiques of functionalism, and the upgrade of the artefactual value of architectural drawings in Aldo Rossi, John Hejduk, Peter Eisenman, and Oswald Mathias Ung...

Drawing and Experiencing Architecture

How were the concepts of the observer and user in architecture and urban planning transformed throughout the 20th and 21st centuries? Marianna Charitonidou explores how the mutations of the means of representation in architecture and urban planning relate to the significance of city's inhabitants. She investigates Le Corbusier and Ludwig Mies van der Rohe's fascination with perspective, Team Ten's interest in the humanisation of architecture and urbanism, Constantinos Doxiadis and Adriano Olivetti's role in reshaping the relationship between politics and urban planning during the postwar years, Giancarlo De Carlo's architecture of participation, Aldo Rossi's design methods, Denise Scott Brown's active socioplactics and Bernard Tschumi's conception praxis.

State Construction and Art in East Central Europe, 1918-2018

  • Categories: Art

This volume offers a comprehensive perspective on the relationship between the art scene and agencies of the state in countries of the region, throughout four consecutive yet highly diverse historical periods: from the period of state integration after World War I, through the communist era post 1945 and the time of political transformation after 1989, to the present-day globalisation (including counter-reactions to westernisation and cultural homogenisation). With twenty-three theoretically and/or empirically oriented articles by authors from sixteen countries (East Central Europe and beyond, including the United States and Australia), the book discusses interconnections between state polic...

Transfer of Cultural Objects in the Alpe Adria Region in the 20th Century

  • Categories: Art

Transfer, displacement, confiscation, seizure, looting and theft of cultural objects characterize historical and current conflicts of ownership - also in the Alpe Adria region. In an unprecedented transnational, collaborative and transdisciplinary way, the motion of objects across space and time - and their role as symbolic capital - was investigated in a project funded by the EU in the HERA program. Comprehensive studies analyze competing (national) claims, occupation regimes, the mechanics of dispossession and the politics of "safeguarding" objects. Acknowleding diverse views, including the narratives that attribute(d) meaning to gains and losses of cultural assets, the volume presents key examples of coming to terms with the past. Contributions from Austria, Croatia, Germany, Italy, and Slovenia are combined with explorations of the broader context of translocations e.g. in the Czech Republic, providing a more nuanced understanding of unresolved issues of patrimony.
