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.

Architecture and Armed Conflict is the first multi-authored scholarly book to address this theme from a comparative, interdisciplinary perspective. By bringing together specialists from a range of relevant fields, and with knowledge of case studies across time and space, it provides the first synthetic body of research on the complex, multifaceted subject of architectural destruction in the context of conflict. The book addresses several specific research questions: How has the destruction of buildings and landscapes figured in recent historical conflicts, and how have people and states responded to it? How has the destruction of architecture been represented in different historical periods, and to what ends? What are the relationships between the destruction of architecture and the destruction of art, particularly iconoclasm? If architectural destruction is a salient feature of many armed conflicts, how does it feature in post-conflict environments? What are the relationships between architectural destruction and processes of restoration, recreation or replacement? Considering multiple conflicts, multiple time periods, and multiple locations allows this international cohort of authors to provide an essential primer for this crucial topic.

This edited volume, Modern Architecture and the Sacred, presents a timely reappraisal of the manifold engagements that modern architecture has had with 'the sacred'. It comprises fourteen individual chapters arranged in three thematic sections – Beginnings and Transformations of the Modern Sacred; Buildings for Modern Worship; and Semi-Sacred Settings in the Cultural Topography of Modernity. The first interprets the intellectual and artistic roots of modern ideas of the sacred in the post-Enlightenment period and tracks the transformation of these in architecture over time. The second studies the ways in which organized religion responded to the challenges of the new modern self-understanding, and then the third investigates the ways that abstract modern notions of the sacred have been embodied in the ersatz sacred contexts of theatres, galleries, memorials and museums. While centring on Western architecture during the decisive period of the first half of the 20th century – a time that takes in the early musings on spirituality by some of the avant-garde in defiance of Sachlichkeit and the machine aesthetic – the volume also considers the many-varied appropriations of sacrality that architects have made up to the present day, and also in social and cultural contexts beyond the West.

In his landmark volume Space, Time and Architecture, Sigfried Giedion paired images of two iconic spirals: Tatlin’s Monument to the Third International and Borromini’s dome for Sant’Ivo alla Sapienza. The values shared between the baroque age and the modern were thus encapsulated on a single page spread. As Giedion put it, writing of Sant’Ivo, Borromini accomplished 'the movement of the whole pattern [...] from the ground to the lantern, without entirely ending even there.' And yet he merely 'groped' towards that which could 'be completely effected' in modern architecture-achieving 'the transition between inner and outer space.' The intellectual debt of modern architecture to modernist historians who were ostensibly preoccupied with the art and architecture of earlier epochs is now widely acknowledged. This volume extends this work by contributing to the dual projects of the intellectual history of modern architecture and the history of architectural historiography. It considers the varied ways that historians of art and architecture have historicized modern architecture through its interaction with the baroque: a term of contested historical and conceptual significance that has often seemed to shadow a greater contest over the historicity of modernism. Presenting research by an international community of scholars, this book explores through a series of cross sections the traffic of ideas between practice and history that has shaped modern architecture and the academic discipline of architectural history across the long twentieth century. The editors use the historiography of the baroque as a lens through which to follow the path of modern ideas that draw authority from history. In doing so, the volume defines a role for the baroque in the history of architectural historiography and in the history of modern architectural culture.

In the era of cybernetics, architects suddenly encountered entirely new ways of operating technical systems: buildings could be calculated using circuit diagrams, creativity and imagination were confronted with the technical intelligence of thinking machines. Architects found themselves in the crosshairs of cybernetics. At stake was nothing less than the continued existence of the architect’s inventive intelligence in a techno-scientific world. Today, we see computing machines, once so heavy, losing weight while gaining power. Computers are fully colonizing the human environment, creating their own digital ecosystems, and giving rise to forms of society and ways of being that cannot even be explained without big data. Available for the first time in English as a new edition.

After World War II, West Germans and West Berliners found ways of communicating both their recent sufferings and aspirations for stable communities through buildings that fused the ruins of historicist structures with new constructions rooted in the modernism of the 1910s and ‘20s. As Modernism as Memory illustrates, these postwar practices undergird the approaches later taken in influential structures created or renovated in Berlin following the fall of the Wall, including the Jewish Museum and the Reichstag, the New Museum and the Topography of Terror. While others have characterized contemporary Berlin’s museums and memorials as postmodern, Kathleen James-Chakraborty argues that these environments are examples of an “architecture of modern memory” that is much older, more complex, and historically contingent. She reveals that churches and museums repaired and designed before 1989 in Düren, Hanover, Munich, Neviges, Pforzheim, Stuttgart, and Weil am Rhein contributed to a modernist precedent for the relationship between German identity and the past developed since then in the Ruhr region and in Berlin. Modernism as Memory demonstrates that how one remembers can be detached from what one remembers, contrasting ruins with recollections of modernism to commemorate German suffering, the Holocaust, and the industrial revolution, as well as new spaces for Islam in the country.

Bringing together approaches from cultural and urban history, as well as German studies and political theory, Clare Copley's probing study reflects on post-unification responses to iconic Nazi architecture to reveal insights into power, legitimacy and memory politics in the Berlin Republic. Analysing public debates, physical interventions into the buildings and the structuring of the memory landscapes around them, the book demonstrates that the politics of memory impact not just upon the built environment of the post-dictatorship city, but upon the way decisions about it are made. In doing so, Nazi Buildings, Cold War Traces and Governmentality in Post-Unification Berlin makes the case for conceiving of a specifically 'post-authoritarian' governmentality and uses the responses to constructions like Goering's Aviation Ministry, Tempelhof Airport and the Olympic complex to explore its features.

Architektur des 20. Jahrhunderts Baugeschichte in Deutschland ist ein widerspruchsvolles Thema, wie die deutsche Geschichte überhaupt. Das Land hat Pioniere der Architekturmoderne, etwa Walter Gropius, Ludwig Mies von der Rohe und Erich Mendelsohn, hervorgebracht, aber sie auch ins Exil getrieben. Dekaden waren vom Streit zwischen denen geprägt, die das Neue anstrebten, und denen, die das Alte bewahren wollten und Zweifel an den Glücksversprechen der neuen Zeit hatten. Die Architektur hat die Nähe zur Macht gesucht, des Kapitals wie der Diktatur. Doch sie hat auch der Demokratie ihre Häuser gebaut: der Weimarer Republik, der Bundesrepublik. Von diesem widersprüchlichen Gang der Dinge erzählt das Buch. Wer sich heute an eine Darstellung von über hundert Jahren Architektur wagt, vom Glanz und Elend der Kaiserzeit bis zum Pluralismus der globalisierten Gegenwart, müßte eine Enzyklopädie verfassen. Oder er muß, wie es hier geschieht, auswählen, konzentrieren, zusammenfassen, plausible Handlungsstränge finden, mit dem sprechenden Detail arbeiten. So entsteht ein spannendes Buch, das sich nicht nur an den Kenner wendet, sondern auch Leser erreicht, denen jenseits des Spezialistentums gebaute Geschichte und Gegenwart am Herzen liegen. Zugleich erleichtern umfassendes Literaturverzeichnis, Zeittabelle und biografischer Anhang die weitere Beschäftigung mit dem Thema.- Das Standardwerk: Deutsche Baugeschichte von 1900 bis heute Wolfgang Pehnt ist einer der führenden Architekturhistoriker in Deutschland Deutsche Architektur seit 1900 entsteht in enger Zusammenarbeit mit der Wüstenrot Stiftung Inhaltsverzeichnis:Vorwort der Wüstenrot Stiftung Vorwort des Autors 1900 bis 1918 Ein Jahrhundert beginnt Darmstädter Tempelkunst Fortschritt auf neuen Bahnen Villa und Landhaus Wege der Reform Zyklopenstil Modernisierung der Städte Veredelung der Arbeit 1918 bis 1933 Mangel an Obdach Wenn Hoffnungen bauen Bis in die Wolken hinauf Bauhaus und andere Wir lernen Esperanto Befreites Wohnen Weltstadt Berlin Variationen der Moderne Architektur in der Krise1933 bis 1945 Aufruf der Kulturschaffenden Germanische Tektonik NSModerne Festung Europa Architekten im Exil1945 bis 1970 Keine Stunde Null Umgang mit Ruinen Strategien des Wiederaufbaus Blick nach draußen Reise nach Moskau Happy Fifties Wettstreit der Systeme Das Seiende und das Wesende Bauen für die große Zahl Gerüste des Lebens Starke Signale1970 bis 1989 Der Mensch braucht eine andere Stadt Technische Gestalt Rückkehr in die Städte Postmoderne Spiele HochhausCity 1989 bis heute Wieder vereinigt Hauptstadt der Deutsche Import und Export Einfach oder schwierig S, M, L, XL Ökologisch Bauen Was bleibt und was sich ändertAnhang Zeittafel Kurzbiografien deutscher Architekten und Planer Literatur in Auswahl Register: Namen Orte Bildnachweis
