Abstract

An unusual journey between Breslau and Dessau, from the World Cultural Heritage of the Centennial Hall (1913) to the World Cultural Heritage of Bauhaus dating from the twenties: and there are many highpoints of modern architecture in-between—in Görlitz, Dresden-Hellerau, Leipzig or Chemnitz, for example. Almost all the great modernist architects ar gathered together here, from Hans Poelzig and Henry van de Velde to Heinrich Tessenow, Richard Riemerschmid, Hans Scharoun, Erich Mendelsohn and even Walter Gropius. But the focus is also on the cities themselves; at a very early date, their progressive building councillors thought hard about European urban development—about buildings ranging from striking tower blocks to top-quality mass housing. This publication illustrates an important chapter of our architectural history in an original, condensed-format travel guide.

Abstract

"Architecture, Europe, and twentieth century. These are the three terms that define the scope of this book. The century is extended to a hundred-and-twenty years, the architecture is limited to the cultural portion of the production, and Europe is the entire continent, from the North Pole to the Mediterranean Sea, from Iceland to the Urals"--Pref.

Abstract

L'ouvrage propose des essais illustrés revendiquant la spécificité des projets mis en oeuvre dans les pays du sud de l'europe et dans les autres continents. Cette réflexion sur le présent et le futur immédiat revendique des paramètres différents de ceux de l'architecture dominante nord américaine ou hollandaise. Les projets présentés sont pour la plupart d'Eduard Bru et concernent, pour la plupart, Barcelone mais aussi des exemples à Bucharest ( Roumanie), Beirut ( Liban), Mar Bella (Esapgne), Alicante (Esapagne), Grenade (Espagne), Athènes (Grèce)

Abstract

The story of modernist architects in East Central Europe. The first half of the twentieth century witnessed the rise of modernist architects. Brokers of Modernity reveals how East Central Europe turned into one of the pre-eminent testing grounds of the new belief system of modernism. By combining the internationalism of the CIAM organization and the modernising aspirations of the new states built after 1918, the reach of modernist architects extended far beyond their established fields. Yet, these architects paid a price when Europe's age of extremes intensified. Mainly drawing on Polish, but also wider Central and Eastern European cases, this book delivers a pioneering study of the dynamics of modernist architects as a group, including how they became qualified, how they organized, communicated and attempted to live the modernist lifestyle themselves. In doing so, Brokers of Modernity raises questions concerning collective work in general and also invites us to examine the social role of architects today.
