Abstract

Arieh Sharon and Modern Architecture in Israel: Building Social Pragmatism offers the first comprehensive survey of the work of Arieh Sharon and analyzes and discusses his designs and plans in relation to the emergence of the State of Israel. A graduate of the Bauhaus, Sharon worked for a few years at the office of Hannes Mayer before returning to Mandatory Palestine. There, he established his office which was occupied in its first years in planning kibbutzim and residential buildings in Tel Aviv. After the establishment of the state of Israel in 1948, Arieh Sharon became the director and chief architect of the National Planning Department, where he was asked to devise the young country's first national masterplan. Known as the Sharon Plan, it was instrumental in shaping the development of the new nation. During the 1950s and '60s, Sharon designed many of Israel's institutions, including hospitals and buildings on university campuses. This book presents Sharon's exceptionally wide range of work, and examines his perception of architecture in both socialist and pragmatist terms. It also explores Sharon's modernist approach to architecture and his subsequent shift to Brutalist architecture, when he partnered with Benjamin Idelson in the 1950s and when his son, Eldar Sharon, joined the office in 1964. Thus, the book contributes a missing chapter in the historiography of Israeli architecture in particular, and of modern architecture overall. This book will be of interest to researchers in architecture, modern architecture, Israel studies, Middle Eastern studies, and migration of knowledge.

Abstract

L'ouvrage de Carmen Popescu se situe dans la lignée de recherches consacrées à la question identitaire en architecture, lignée qui constitue un domaine montant en puissance dans les études architecturales. Conçu à partir d'une thèse de doctorat, le livre analyse la création et l'évolution d'une expression architecturale aux velléités identitaires dans la Roumanie moderne. Son découpage chronologique, qui correspond à la durée d'existence du Royaume roumain, met en évidence les relations étroites établies entre l'invention et l'épanouisement de cette architecture et l'idéologie de l'Etat-nation. Pour mieux rendre la complexité du sujet, l'auteur a croisé les références faisant revivre le riche contexte historique et culturel de l'époque. Expression de la spécificité roumaine dans le concert européen, le "style national" roumain était, en même temps, le reflet d'un vaste phénomène architectural qui s'est manifesté à la même époque partout sur le continent, voire au-delà de ses frontières. Au long de son évolution, le "style national" a entretenu un contact étroit avec le milieu français, autant directement par la formation de la plupart de ses protagonistes à l'Ecole des Beaux-arts, que de manière indirecte, par l'influence de la pensée et de la culture française en général.

Abstract

Moving beyond reductive notions of identity, myths of authenticity, fetishized traditionalism, or the constructed opposition of tradition and modernity, this book engages contemporary architectural and urban production in the Middle East. Taking the "Arab City" and "Islamic Architecture" as sites of investigation rather than given categories, this book reframes the region's buildings, cities, and landscapes and broadens its architectural and urban canons. Arab cities are multifaceted places and sites of layered historical imaginaries; defined by regional and territorial economies, they bridge scales of production and political engagement. The essays collected here investigate cultural representation, the evolution of historical cities, contemporary architectural practices, emerging urban conditions, and responsive urban imaginaries in the Arab World.
