Abstract

In this volume are gathered together the most important buildings and projects realized by the architect Max Dudler since 1986. The compact overview reveals how consistently Dudler has systematically developed his conceptual approach out of the history of architecture. The son of a Swiss stonemason and a student of Oswald Mathias Ungers, Dudler's continuous engagement with the European city has assured him a standing as one of the most distinctive and independent of the German-speaking architects. His many projects are each illustrated here on two to six pages of images, drawings, historical references and model views, with accompanying explanatory texts. Among the featured works are the Federal Ministry of Transport, Building and Urban Development (Berlin), Museum Ritter (Waldenbuch), the celebrated Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm Center (Berlin), and the new concert hall in Reutlingen.

Abstract

It is impossible to imagine Austrian architecture and contemporary history without Karl Schwanzer, who would have marked his hundredth birthday in 2018. His buildings, like the BMW administration building in Munich, caused quite a furor domestically and abroad; his institute at the Technical University of Vienna influenced offices like Coop Himmelb(l)au, Haus-Rucker-Co, Missing Link and ZÜND-UP. Posthumously, Schwanzer rose to cult status among his staff, students and clients, conferred especially for his passionate way of working, sparing no effort or expense, and for his relentless search for the optimum solution. In every sense, his life and work were unconventional. The idea to relate them in the form of a graphic novel is also quite unconventional, but certainly a logical consequence! Karl Schwanzer, der 2018 einhundert Jahre alt geworden wäre, ist aus der Architekturgeschichte Österreichs nicht wegzudenken. Seine Bauten, etwa das BMW Gebäude in München, haben im In- und Ausland für Aufsehen gesorgt; sein Institut an der TU Wien hat Büros wie Coop Himmelb(l)au hervorgebracht. Seine Mitarbeiter, Studenten und Bauherren verliehen ihm posthum einen Kultstatus, der insbesondere durch seine leidenschaftliche Arbeitsweise, bei der er nichts und niemanden verschonte, und seine unerbittliche Suche nach der optimalen Lösung begründet ist. Seine Arbeitsweise war in jeder Hinsicht radikal und unkonventionell. Dass nun sein Leben in Form eines Graphic Novel erzählt wird, ist sicher auch unkonventionell, aber durchaus folgerichtig!

Abstract

Glas ist eines der faszinierendsten und vielseitigsten Baumaterialien der Architekturgeschichte. Die hier versammelten neuen Forschungsergebnisse thematisieren Glas an den Schnittstellen von Produktion, Konstruktionstechnologie und Baukultur. Sie untersuchen die zentrale Rolle von Flachglas in der Architektur, insbesondere seit dem 18. Jahrhundert, und diskutieren die In-situ-Restaurierung historischer Fenster und Glasfassaden sowie die Herausforderungen, dieses fragile Erbe zu bewahren. Die Themen reichen von der Flachglasherstellung in vorindustrieller Zeit bis zu den Möglichkeiten der Reparatur und der Wiederverwendbarkeit von Isolierverglasungen. Die Beiträge aus unterschiedlichsten Disziplinen schlagen Brücken zwischen den Natur- und Geisteswissenschaften und der Konservierung und Restaurierung von Kulturgut. Mit Beiträgen in englischer, deutscher und französischer Sprache Multidisziplinärer Exkurs in die Geschichte der Herstellung und Verwendung von Flachglas Von der Römerzeit bis heute Neue Perspektiven auf Flachglas als Baumaterial und Kulturerbe Glass is one of the most fascinating and versatile building materials in architectural history. The new insights into glass in architecture are the result of research at the intersection of glass production, construction technology and building culture. Coming from a variety of disciplines, the contributions bridge the divide between natural sciences, humanities and the preservation and restoration of cultural heritage. They explore the crucial role of flat glass in shaping architecture, particularly since the 18th century, and discuss the in-situ restoration of historic windows and glass façades and the importance of preserving this fragile heritage. The topics range from the manufacture of sheet glass in pre-industrial times to the possibilities of repair and reusability of insulating glazing. With contributions in English, German and French A multi-disciplinary survey of the history of the production and use of flat glass From the Roman times to the present day New insights on sheet glass as building material and cultural heritage
