13 propositions of Post-Modernism by Charles JencksAnshuman Mishra
This presentation contains the 13 propositions that Charles Jencks had prepared, as a summary, to introduce his students at UCLA, to the topic of Post-Modernism. The Slides were prepared by-Shanya Gupta, Nitin Sahu, Anshuman Abhisek Mishra : 4th sem B. Arch students at SPA, Bhopal.
This document discusses postmodern architecture and its relationship to modernism. It provides background on the emergence of postmodernism in the 1960s as a reaction against modern architecture. Postmodernism incorporated historical details and ornamentation rather than strict modernist styles. The document also discusses debates around postmodernism and how its philosophy was applied in different contexts and time periods. It examines questions around defining and distinguishing modern, postmodern and contemporary architectural styles.
The document discusses the evolution of postmodern architectural history and theory. It provides 11 key points about postmodernism according to Charles Jencks, including that it embraces pluralism, ambiguity, and uses irony to juxtapose opposites. Jencks also notes that postmodernism incorporates the modern, and represents a culture with a sense of departure but no clear direction. The document explores themes of postmodern architecture like historicism, eclecticism, and reconciling old and new generations.
Postmodern architecture emerged in the 1950s as an international style that rejected the minimalism and functionalism of modernism in favor of ornamentation, stylistic eclecticism, and references to historical elements. It became a movement in the late 1970s that continues to influence today's architecture. Postmodern buildings feature diverse aesthetics where styles collide and forms are adopted for their own visual interest over strict functionality. Key figures like Robert Venturi promoted this approach through works like the Vanna Venturi House, which challenged modernist orthodoxy through its manipulated scale and symbolic elements. Experimental groups like Archigram proposed futuristic visions through hypothetical mega-structures and mobile cities that embraced technology and consumerism.
This document provides an overview of modernism and introduces some key concepts related to modernity. It discusses how modernism emerged from the late 19th century with the rise of industrialization, capitalism, secularization, and urbanization. Modernism rejected tradition and was inspired by science and technology. The document introduces ideas from Frederick Taylor on scientific management and Henry Ford on assembly line production. It provides some examples of modernist art and film. The document then begins to introduce postmodernism and some differences from modernism, such as a shift to new information technologies and globalization.
This document discusses the use of semiotics in legislative architecture through analyzing two case studies. It aims to understand how meanings are formed in these buildings' designs. The scope is limited to semiotic analysis through literature. It discusses how architecture represents ideas and different semiotic models. The case studies are the Manitoba Legislative Building, which depicts ancient ideology through symbolic elements, and the Australian Parliament House, whose forms reference that nation's history and aspire to represent unity. Both buildings effectively communicate intentional meanings through symbolic design elements despite having different specific messages. The conclusion is that meaning formation in architecture results from a social consensus interpreting design symbols.
Jean Baudrillard was a French philosopher known for his ideas around simulations and simulacra in a postmodern environment. Some of his most important works that explored these concepts included "Simulacra and Simulations" and "Utopia Deferred." He believed that with advances in media and technology, simulated versions of reality could become indistinguishable from actual reality, resulting in a "hyperreality." Baudrillard used Disneyland as an example of how an imaginary space aims to mask the fact that reality is no longer real through heightened simulations. His work has been influential in understanding the effects of postmodernism and how it can alter perceptions of media and the world.

Minimalism describes art movements that strip works down to their most fundamental forms. Minimalist art from the 1960s-1970s uses simple geometric shapes, industrial materials, and is purged of metaphor. Key minimalist artists include Donald Judd, Agnes Martin, Frank Stella, Carl Andre, and Robert Morris, who were influenced by composers John Cage and LaMonte Young. Donald Judd's sculptures used simple cubes and planes to explore space, while Agnes Martin's grid paintings combined spirituality and minimalism.
This document provides an introduction to the historical development of architectural theory. It discusses Vitruvius's De Architectura as the earliest known treatise on architectural theory from antiquity. While Vitruvius's work was intermittently read throughout the Middle Ages, no other major treatises on architectural theory emerged during that time period. The tradition was revived during the Italian Renaissance due to the rediscovery of Vitruvius's text and the cultural desire to revive classical architecture. The document outlines the major developments in architectural theory from antiquity through the Renaissance and sets the stage for the subsequent chapters.
Symbolic architecture emerged in the late 19th century as architects sought to express personal visions and escape from reality through simplified styles infused with mysticism and cultural references. It uses symbols linked to history and society to convey particular meanings without a direct causal relationship. Examples include the Aceh Tsunami Museum, designed to commemorate tsunami victims through a corridor mimicking the disaster and a roof resembling waves, and the Notre Dame du Haut Chapel, creating a space of prayer through its curved shape embracing visitors while seeming to reach skyward.
This document discusses organic design in architecture through several examples. It explores works by Frank Lloyd Wright like Fallingwater which was designed to blend with nature. Other architects featured include Alvar Aalto and his organic Savoy Vase as well as Charles and Ray Eames' flowing La Chaise chair. Frank Gehry's Guggenheim Museum is described as resembling fish scales. Jorn Utzon captured the essence of nature in the Sydney Opera House's shell-like roof design. Eero Saarinen's TWA Terminal emulates flight through curving forms. Overall, the document shows how these designers found inspiration in nature and incorporated natural, organic elements and shapes into their works.
Minimalism emerged in the 1960s as a reaction against abstract expressionism. Minimalist artists aimed to eliminate composition from their work and create purely visual, non-representational pieces. Key minimalist artists included Frank Stella, Sol LeWitt, Donald Judd, and Dan Flavin. They used industrial materials and geometric forms to create ordered and simplistic sculptures and installations. Their goal was for the works to be seen as literal objects rather than symbolic representations.
Postmodernism in architecture emerged in the 1950s-1970s as a rejection of modernism's strict formalism and functionalism. It emphasized ornamentation, contextuality, and eclecticism by incorporating historical elements and references. Some key characteristics included hybridity, contradiction, ambiguity, and inclusion of historical styles. Prominent postmodern architects included Robert Venturi, Philip Johnson, Charles Moore, and Michael Graves, whose works featured classical references and symbolic ornamentation. Postmodernism remains influential today through its emphasis on diversity and contextual design.

This presentation aims at providing a better understanding of the role, origin and evolution of participation in contemporary art with a specific focus on technology and participation. It will also provide an overview of participative art models developed in the last decade and the trend they created.
Minimalism originated in the 1960s as a reaction to abstract expressionism. It emphasizes simplicity, absence of emotion and ornamentation. Key artists include Donald Judd, Frank Stella and Agnes Martin. Minimalist architecture by designers like Tadao Ando focuses on essential materials and relationships with nature. Minimalist design applies clean lines, neutral colors and open spaces to interiors, furniture and products. Photography strives for simplicity while retaining significance, and minimalist music uses repetition and gradual transformation.
Postmodern architecture emerged in the late 1970s as a response to the perceived inadequacies of modernism. It incorporated eclectic design elements, ornamentation, and references to historical architectural styles that had been rejected by modernism. Notable postmodernist architects included Robert Venturi, Charles Moore, Philip Johnson, and Hafiz Contractor. They reintroduced decorative elements like colors, columns, and ornamentation to building facades. Postmodernism also emphasized context, symbolism, and playful references over the functionalism and minimalism of modern architecture.

Minimalism was an art movement that emphasized simplicity and industrial materials. It opposed the emotional expression of abstract expressionism and focused on basic geometric forms and repetition. Key artists included Frank Stella, Sol LeWitt, Dan Flavin, Donald Judd, and Carl Andre. Their work used materials like steel, concrete, and light to create simple sculptures and installations. Minimalist music also featured repetition and long durations. The movement sparked criticism for being too simple but influenced later art and design.

Minimalism emerged in the 1960s as an reaction against Abstract Expressionism. It emphasized geometric forms, industrial materials, hard edges, and a reduced palette of solid colors. Key influences included the Bauhaus, De Stijl, and Russian Constructivism movements. Notable minimalist artists included Carl Andre, Robert Morris, Sol LeWitt, Frank Stella, Dan Flavin, and Donald Judd, who created sculptures and installations focusing on the essence of materials and forms.
Postmodern architecture emerged in the late 1970s as a rejection of the strict functionalism of modernism. It is characterized by (1) a return to decorative ornamentation and references to historical architectural styles, (2) a emphasis on contextualism and addressing the materials and forms of surrounding buildings, and (3) a rejection of modernism's doctrine that "less is more." Influential postmodern architects like Robert Venturi, Philip Johnson, and Michael Graves designed buildings that incorporated historical references and ornamentation in new ways.
Skara Brae is an ancient Neolithic village located in Scotland. The PowerPoint contains multiple photos of Skara Brae credited to various photographers under creative commons licenses. The photos provide views of the stone structures and artifacts that have been excavated at the Skara Brae archaeological site.
Skara Brae is an ancient Neolithic village located in Scotland's Orkney Islands. It was inhabited between 3200 BC and 2200 BC. The village is exceptionally well-preserved, with eight interconnected stone houses still intact below ground level. Each house had a central fireplace, beds, storage areas and even basic plumbing. The village was abandoned around 2200 BC for unknown reasons, but was only discovered in 1850 after a storm eroded the sand above the site. It provides valuable insights into Neolithic life in northern Scotland over 5000 years ago.

The document summarizes key developments in architecture and culture from the Paleolithic to Neolithic periods. During the Paleolithic, humans lived in caves and constructed basic huts, developed stone tools, and created cave paintings. The Mesolithic saw the introduction of villages and more sophisticated tools. In the Neolithic, permanent settlements emerged along with agriculture, domestication of animals, and pottery and weaving. Dwellings became more substantial as timber framed houses and structures like Skara Brae were constructed. Megalithic sites including passage graves and Stonehenge also began to be built.
The document summarizes the decline of English language use in England following the Norman invasion in 1066 and the rise of French as the dominant language among the nobility until the late 14th century. It describes how English was relegated to lower social classes and absorbed French vocabulary. It was not until the loss of English holdings in France in 1204 and the Black Death in 1348 that saw a resurgence in the use of English and its emergence as the dominant language by the late 14th century.

This document provides an overview of prehistoric architecture from the Paleolithic to Iron Age periods. It describes the evolution of dwellings from simple cave structures to stone and timber framed houses. Key dwelling types discussed include huts, lean-tos, tents, pit houses, longhouses, and brochs. Defensive structures like hill forts, palisades, and stone towers are also summarized. The document outlines changes in settlement patterns, construction materials, and the emergence of megalithic monuments and burial mounds over prehistoric times.
The document provides an overview of literature during the Medieval period in England. It discusses the three main languages used - Latin, French, and English. Major genres included troubadour poetry, Arthurian legends, epic romances, religious poetry, and fabliaux. Characteristics of Medieval literature included themes of heroism, presentations of idealized behavior like loyalty and chivalry, and the use of poetic devices like kennings. The ideal of courtly love and the knightly quest were also important concepts in Medieval literature.
The document discusses the architectural styles found in Malaysia that have been influenced by colonialism. During the colonial period, the British adopted architectural styles from Britain and India that incorporated local Malay traditions. These colonial styles blended with Chinese, Indian, and local influences. Significant colonial buildings mentioned include the Sultan Abdul Samad Building and Fort Cornwallis. Post-colonially, local architects were influenced by British styles in public works. Traditional Malaysian houses and various religious structures from different ethnic groups are also discussed.
The document summarizes Charles Correa's incremental housing project in CBD Belapur, India. It describes the project's low-cost housing typologies designed around communal courtyards. Housing was organized into clusters of 7-12 pairs of freestanding homes arranged around shared spaces. This allowed residents to independently modify their own homes over time. While many original structures have been replaced, the hierarchy of community spaces remains intact decades later. The project demonstrated high-density affordable housing built at a human scale with simple materials. However, maintaining common spaces and adapting to changing aspirations have presented challenges over time.

The document traces the evolution of postmodernism and its rejection of universal styles in favor of multiple approaches.
80th ICREA Colloquium "Archaeology and Colonialism: multiple perspectives" by...ICREA
This document summarizes Margarita Díaz-Andreu's talk on archaeology and colonialism from multiple perspectives. She discusses how nationalism and colonialism influenced the development of archaeology as a discipline in the 19th century. Colonialism shaped the organization of archaeological knowledge through discourses, hierarchies between colonial powers and subaltern groups, and the infrastructure developed like museums, universities, and heritage administration. However, patterns of institutionalization varied across colonies. She also examines informal and internal colonialism and how nationalism replaced imperialism after decolonization. While archaeology aims to interpret the past objectively, its knowledge is still culturally interpreted and subject to historical biases.

Comparative Essay On Traditional Architecture Vs. Modern...Kristin Oliver
Both Villa Mairea and Baker House were designed by renowned modernist architect Alvar Aalto. They were both completed in the late 1940s and represent seminal works of Aalto's early organic modernist style. Both houses incorporated Aalto's signature use of wood and curved, flowing forms that were meant to blend seamlessly with their natural surroundings. They also featured many of Aalto's innovations like the use of brick walls and double-curved glass to frame views of the landscape.
Art As Idea, The Roots Of Conceptual ArtJames Clegg
This document provides an introduction to conceptual art and its roots in earlier avant-garde movements like Dada, Situationism, and Happenings. It discusses how artists like Yves Klein, Piero Manzoni, and Robert Rauschenberg began treating ideas as works of art.

While self-taught, he has received many awards and works internationally, though remains rooted in his home city of Osaka, Japan.
The document discusses urban design theories and the metabolist movement in Japan. Some key points:
- The metabolist movement emerged in post-war Japan to address the need for efficient residential and urban housing. Metabolists rejected traditional architecture and envisioned cities with large, flexible structures that facilitate organic growth.
- Notable metabolist projects included Kisho Kurokawa's capsule tower and Kenzo Tange's plans for redeveloping cities like Tokyo that integrated the sea and sky into urban habitats.
- The metabolist movement was influenced by teams like Team X and sought to situate futuristic concepts in the context of Japan's reconstruction and rapid economic growth in the 1960s.

Piet Mondrian's 1911 painting Gray Tree, housed at the Gemeente Museum in Den Haag, depicts a ghostly tree using thick layers of oil paint applied with quick brush strokes, taking weeks or months to complete despite the rapid-looking style. The painting has an eerie quality that intrigues and slightly scares viewers, perhaps hinting at a story behind the tree or something emerging from behind it. Analysis of the painting finds it releases a ghostly essence while making viewers feel both scared and intrigued by what might come out from behind the tree.
- Ruskin introduced the concept of stewardship for architectural conservation, saying buildings belong to past and future generations, not just the present. He opposed "restoration" that replaced original materials.
- Viollet-le-Duc advocated "stylistic restoration", adding elements to sustain structures, though altering the historical record.
- The Indian concept of Jiirnnoddharana in ancient texts had aspects of both conservation and restoration, aiming to prolong life and revive usefulness of structures through natural processes of creation, existence, and rebirth. It emphasized respecting life and materials over strict material authenticity.
This document provides a summary of the history of architectural theory from antiquity to the present. It begins with Vitruvius in the 1st century BCE and his work "De Architectura", which defined classical orders and proposed the Vitruvian triad of firmness, commodity, and delight. During the Renaissance, thinkers like Alberti built upon Vitruvius. The Enlightenment saw renewed interest in classical architecture. In the 19th century, theorists like Pugin and Ruskin reacted against neoclassicism. Modernism in the 20th century was shaped by thinkers like Sullivan, the International Style architects, and Wright. Contemporary theory grapples with issues of globalization, technology, and the digital realm.

“There cannot be such a thing as a Pre-Modern, for it would mean that modernism has
become the Archimedean point of understanding history backward into all of time and
space.”
“We live in a globalized world, and architecture students should know the range of
issues associated with their discipline as they encounter that world.”
“My definition of modernism is purposefully simple: Modernism is a condition of
rupture.”

Cours de linguistique générale (1916)
"Language is no longer regarded as peripheral to our grasp of the world we live in, but as central to it.
Words are not mere vocal labels or communicational adjuncts superimposed upon an already given
order of things. They are collective products of social interaction, essential instruments through which
human beings constitute and articulate their world. This typically twentieth-century view of language
has profoundly influenced developments throughout the whole range of human sciences. It is
particularly marked in linguistics, philosophy, psychology, sociology and anthropology".

Patterns of Culture (1934)
A culture, like an individual, is a more or less consistent pattern of thought and action. Each culture chooses from "the
great arc of human potentialities" only a few characteristics which become the leading personality traits of the persons
living in that culture. These traits comprise an interdependent constellation of aesthetics and values in each culture which
together add up to a unique gestalt.
