Abstract

Fragments presents one hundred and ten entries- from Acheiropoieton to Zwischenraum- that explore new insights and observations for research and criticism in art history, iconology and cultural anthropology. It offers a unique anthology of Barbara Baert's oeuvre. Each lemma bears the stamp of the author's personality and work, sometimes in the form of an encompassing explanation, sometimes a brief experimental musing, illustratied by iconic artefacts. This extraordinary glossary leverages the power of interdisciplinary research in art and human sciences, and invites the reader to consider the beauty of these disciplines by embracing multiple genres. Fragments is Barbara Baert's response to her being awarded the Belgian Francqui Prize Human Sciences 2016. This celebration book within the series Studies in Iconology is a token of gratitude and a sign of encouragement towards the desire of a deeper understanding of our artistic environments.

Abstract

What was it like to grow up in a Modernist residence? Did these radical environments shape the way that children looked at architecture later in life? The oral history in this book paint a uniquely intimate portrait of Modernism.The authors conducted interviews with people, who spent their childhood in radical Modernist domestic spaces, uncovering both serene and poignant memories. The recollections range from the ambivalence of philosopher Ernst Tugendhat, now 90 years old, who lived in the famous Mies van der Rohe house in Brno (1930) to the fond reminiscing of the youngest daughter of the Schminke family, who still dreams of her Scharoun-designed ship-like villa in Löbau (1933). The book offers a unique, private and often refreshing perspective on these icons of the avant-garde. Wie war die Erfahrung, in einem Bau der Moderne aufzuwachsen? Wie hat diese radikal andere Umgebung die Kinder und späteren Erwachsenen geprägt? Dieses Buch zeichnet ein intimes und ungewöhnliches Porträt der Architektur der Avantgarde.Die Autoren haben "Oral History"-Interviews mit ehemaligen Bewohnern geführt und dabei heitere wie auch ergreifende Erinnerungen aufgezeichnet. Oft dauerte das glückliche Familienleben in diesen Häusern nur kurze Zeit - der Philosoph Ernst Tugendhat, heute 90 Jahre alt, musste mit acht Jahren das berühmte Haus Tugendhat von Mies van der Rohe (1930) verlassen und die von Scharoun entworfene, schiffsartige Villa Schminke (1933) wurde von der Familie nur ein Jahr lang zusammen bewohnt. Das Buch bietet eine einzigartige und erfrischende Perspektive auf Ikonen der modernen Architektur.
