Panel:Shaping Postmodern Architecture: The Medium is the Message
As recent scholarship has pointed out "the history of the architectural
media is much more than a footnote to the history of architecture".
Ever since the late 18th century, architectural exhibitions and
periodicals played an essential role in the dissemination of
architectural culture. Emphasizing the work of certain architects, and
belittling that of others, they introduced movements and constructed
new tendencies, while theoretically and critically shaping
architectural discourse. If a number of scholars reconsidered the role
of these media in the modern era, their significance for the postmodern
decades has only just been opened up.
Relying heavily on the circulation of images, postmodernism has always
been intertwined with the media. In their critique of the Modern
Movement, and in their exploration of a new spatial and visual culture,
architectural exhibitions and periodicals played an essential role in
critically shaping postmodern architecture. As hypothetical spaces
these media contributed to the development of new architectural
approaches, providing an alternative to the built project. As
discursive platforms they enhanced transatlantic or paneurean
encounters. As critical practices they extended the role of the
architect beyond its traditional boundaries, functioning as vehicles
for research-based design.
This session welcomes presentations that address postmodern
architectural exhibitions and periodicals as forms of discourse. How
did exhibitions and magazines prompted transatlantic exchanges and
cultural transfers? How did these media influence the discursive
frameworks in which architectural theory took shape? To what extend
were postmodern exhibitions and periodicals a response to the end of
the "grand narratives"? And how did these media enhance the role of
history and historiography in the postmodern era?
