Abstract

Bilingual edition (English/German) / Zweisprachige Ausgabe (deutsch/englisch) Whoever builds is inevitably confronted with a jungle of different positions, all with one thing in common: they are all the views of professionals. As a discipline, architecture occupies a special role. It is a profession itself, and one which relates to numerous other professions and integrates them into its practice of planning and building. GAM 19 interrogates the complex constellations and various semantic meanings of professionalism in architecture. How have the professional foundations of the discipline shifted over time due to economic, ecological, or societal changes, and how do today’s architects engage with them? What is there to be learned from all the hybrid forms in which professional procedures are circumvented by unprofessional processes in order to produce hitherto unknown results? GAM 19 takes on the task of analyzing and re-evaluating architecture’s occupational profile, providing a platform for a diverse range of players to reflect on the concept of professionalism in the context of their architectural practice and to identify its contemporary manifestations. With contributions by Grayson Bailey, Alexander Bartscher, Klara Bindl, Ivica Brnić, Peggy Deamer, Anne Femmer, Andri Gerber, Andreas Lechner, Alex Lehnerer, Yeoryia Manolopoulou, Jan Meier, Julian Müller, Victoria Steiner, Florian Summa, Juergen Teller, and Lena Unger Zweisprachige Ausgabe (deutsch/englisch) / Bilingual edition (English/German) Wer baut, sieht sich mit einem Dickicht von Positionen konfrontiert, die vor allem eins sind: Stimmen von Profis. Die Architektur nimmt dabei als Disziplin eine Sonderrolle ein, da sie seit jeher eine Profession bildet, die sich auf andere Professionen bezieht und diese in ihre Praxis des Planens und Bauens integriert. GAM 19 fragt nach den komplexen Konstellationen und unterschiedlichen Bedeutungsebenen von Professionalität in der Architektur: Wie haben sich die professionellen Fundamente der Disziplin aufgrund ökonomischer, ökologischer oder gesellschaftlicher Veränderungen im Wandel der Zeit verschoben und wie gehen Architekt*innen heute damit um? Was lässt sich von den Mischformen lernen, bei denen professionelle Abläufe von unprofessionellen Verfahren hintergangen werden, um bisher unbekannte Resultate zu erzeugen? GAM 19 nimmt sich der Analyse und Neubewertung des Berufsbilds der Architektur an und lässt unterschiedliche Akteur*innen zu Wort kommen, die den Begriff des Professionalismus im Kontext ihrer architektonischen Praxis reflektieren und seinen gegenwärtigen Ausprägungen nachspüren. Mit Beiträgen von Grayson Bailey, Alexander Bartscher, Klara Bindl, Ivica Brnić, Peggy Deamer, Anne Femmer, Andri Gerber, Andreas Lechner, Alex Lehnerer, Yeoryia Manolopoulou, Jan Meier, Julian Müller, Victoria Steiner, Florian Summa, Juergen Teller und Lena Unger

Abstract

How do the writings of Verlaine, Baudelaire, and Mallarmé speak to our time? Why should we continue to read these poets today? How might a contemporary reading of their poetry differ from readings delivered in previous centuries? Twenty-First-Century Symbolism argues that Verlaine, Baudelaire, and Mallarmé prefigure a view of human subjectivity that is appropriate for our times: we cannot be separated from the worlds in which we live and evolve; human beings both mediate and are mediations of the environments we traverse and that traverse us, whether these are natural, urban, linguistic, or technological environments. The ambition of the book is therefore twofold: on the one hand, it aims to offer new readings of the three poets, demonstrating their continued relevance for contemporary debates, putting them into dialogue with a philosophical corpus that has not yet played a role in the study of nineteenth century French poetry; on the other, the book relies on the three poets to establish an understanding of human subjectivity that is in tune with our twenty-first century concerns.
