Developing cultural heritage in a more sustainable way. New approaches and examples from practice.

This book introduces in a clear and systematic manner the results of the EU-funded OpenHeritage project, which examined best practices in different European countries. It focuses on the idea of inclusive heritage management based on community-driven processes. It is designed to act as a guide for anyone involved in planning, researching, and deciding on the further development and use of cultural heritage. Systematic presentation of the results of the EU-funded project OpenHeritage A collection of different approaches to assessing the social impact of bottom-up cultural heritage reuse projects Presentation of numerous methods derived from OpenHeritage case studies and other European initiatives Kulturerbe zukunftsfähig weiterentwickeln. Neue Ansätze und Beispiele aus der Praxis. "Open Heritage" gründet auf der dringenden Forderung, dass eine zukunftsfähige Weiterentwicklung von unserem Kulturerbe in Zeiten des Klimawandels, sozialer Ungleichheit und Pluralität der Gesellschaft nur möglich ist, wenn wir die Definition von Kulturerbe, von Planungsprozessen sowie davon, wer an der Pflege beteiligt sein kann, öffnen. Dieses Buch präsentiert auf anschauliche und systematische Weise die Ergebnisse des EU-geförderten Projekts OpenHeritage, in dem zahlreiche von der Gemeinschaft gesteuerte europäische Fallbeispiele untersucht wurden. Dabei stellt es die Idee eines integrativen Managements in den Mittelpunkt. Dieser anleitende Überblick dient allen involvierten, planenden, forschenden und entscheidenden Akteur:innen für die zeitgemäße Weiterentwicklung und Nutzung von Kulturerbe. Systematische Darstellung der Ergebnisse des EU-Projekts OpenHeritage Sammlung verschiedener Ansätze zur Abschätzung der sozialen Auswirkungen von Bottom-up-Projekten bei der Wiederverwendung von Kulturerbe Darstellung zahlreicher Methoden aus Fallstudien von OpenHeritage sowie aus Initiativen in Europa

Grenoble a connu un développement économique et touristique exceptionnel dès la fin du XIXe siècle. Son paysage urbain reflète les nouvelles ambitions de la capitale des Alpes, qui se transforme radicalement en quelques décennies. Les nombreuses réalisations architecturales remarquables héritées de cette période constituent la ville d'aujourd'hui, qui a reçu en 2017 le label Ville d'art et d'histoire. Ce premier volume plonge le lecteur dans l'analyse des transformations urbaines de la ville, apportant l'éclairage scientifique d'une quinzaine d'auteurs architectes et spécialistes du patrimoine. Il donne ainsi les clés de compréhension des grandes étapes de l'histoire architecturale et urbaine de Grenoble au XXe siècle, depuis les premières constructions en ciment moulé jusqu'aux jeux olympiques de 1968 et aux grandes réalisations des années 1980. Illustré de nombreux documents et photographies d'archives, il apporte une mine d'informations passionnantes qui changent radicalement le regard sur les constructions qui forment le paysage urbain de la cité grenobloise.

"The fine arts are traditionally seen to have intrinsic value: that is, they are valuable in themselves. But this poses a problem for architecture: its works are designed to serve our purposes, and therefore it is classed as functional. Carving out a new space, Edward Winters argues why architecture is a fine art and finds a place for the fine art of architecture in the cultural environment in which we structure our lives. Winters reconciles intrinsic value, as a fine art, with extrinsic value, as shelter, security and comfort, without collapsing into the modernist conception of Functionalism. He draws on the Apollonian and the Dionysian to resolve the apparent conflict between the two values: the former requiring contemplative, detached reflection, the latter an engaged, embodied entanglement with the festive mood inspired by the immediate situation. Architecture, Winters claims, is to be regarded as functional; but this functionality is subsumed under the intrinsic aesthetic value of living well. Introducing the main positions in the philosophy of architecture through the lens of the timeless argument about what constitutes art, Winters lays out a humanistic view of the medium and extends our understanding of aesthetics and the everyday" --

The urban attentions of Pritzker Laureate Sverre Fehn (1924-2009) are extensive, but as yet virtually unexplored. This book examines ten select projects to illuminate Fehn's approach to the city, the embodiment of that thinking in his designs, and the broader lessons those efforts offer for better understanding the relationship between architecture and urban life, with unignorable implications for emergent urban architecture and its address of sociological and ecological crises. Wary of large-scale planning proposals or the erasure of existing urban patterns, Fehn offered an uncommon and profoundly vibrant approach to urbanism at the scale of the single architectural project. His writings, constructed buildings, competition entries, and lectures suggest opportunities for reinvigorating architecture's engagement with the city, and provoke a rethinking of concepts foundational to its theorization. What is the nature of urbanity? What is the relationship of urbanity to the natural world? What is the role of architecture in the provision and sustenance of urban life? While exploring this territory will expand our knowledge of an architect central to key developments of late modernism, the range of the book and the arguments developed therein delineate far broader aims: a fuller understanding of architecture's urban promise.
