This book, edited by David Chipperfield, documents his most important project to date: the Neues Museum, the centrepiece of the Berlin Museumsinsel. Here he connects the old and the new in a completely novel way. As he says himself, he “proceeded like a painter, who painstakingly considers every dab of paint”. Photographs by Candida Höfer show the rooms after their completion and before they were furnished. As Höfer avoided using artificial light, the rooms are bathed in a soft natural light. These critical moments are perfectly reproduced in the book as matt colour plates. The photographer is inspired by the empty rooms and grandiose corridors of space to then dedicate her attention to the architect’s interventions. This artistic-photographic documentation is complimented by texts from well-known architects, architectural historians, art historians and conservation architects. They highlight the fundamental principles of the project of conservation and complementation. Kenneth Frampton discusses the almost historical endeavour to restore such a building and responds to Chipperfield’s architectural interventions, purely abstract forms that avoid any trace of kitsch. Joseph Rykwert describes the fragmented history “of which this building is evidence, thanks to its manifold layers”. An interview with David Chipperfield by Wolfgang Wolters imparts insights into the problems and questions that the restoration posed and in his contribution, Thomas Weski takes a closer look at Candida Höfer’s photography. In addition, a chronology offers an overview of the history of the building, the request for proposals for its reconstruction and the restoration itself.

Unter dem ungewissen Erwartungshorizont spätmoderner Gesellschaften treten verschiedene Vorstellungen kollektiver Identität in Konflikt. Jochen Kibel zeigt: Im Streit um das Neue Museum in Berlin und das Militärhistorische Museum in Dresden artikulierten sich unterschiedliche Kollektivierungsdiskurse, in denen die Vergangenheit nach den Anforderungen der Gegenwart umgeformt wurde. Der retrospektive Blick gewährt damit immer auch die prospektive Hoffnung auf eine bessere Vergangenheit. Die dynamischen Verhältnisse der Gegenwart bringen schließlich eine Form reflexiver Identitätsbildung hervor, in der auch die Fähigkeit anhaltender Selbstkritik in der Vergangenheit ›wiedergefunden‹ wird. Die Vorstellung einer wandlungsfähigen Identität gewährleistet dann ein Gleichbleiben im Strom der Zeit, durch beständige Kurskorrekturen.
