SOS Brutalism is a distress signal. Since the 1950s, eminent architects around the world have realised buildings expressing an uncompromising attitude. Predominantly, yet not exclusively, they used exposed concrete, or béton brut (hence the term 'brutalism'), for their construction. Today, many of these always-controversial buildings are in danger of demolition or, at least, of reconstruction that often may change their appearance beyond recognition. In recent years, an initiative to protect and preserve this significant global heritage of 20th-century architecture has gained momentum, mainly through the internet. Using the hashtag #SOSBrutalism, the Deutsches Architekturmuseum (DAM, German Museum of Architecture) in Frankfurt on the Main and the Wüstenrot Foundation participate in this campaign, and have developed a vast collaborative research project.The result of this research to date is a global survey of brutalist architecture of the 1950s, 1960s and 1970s, presented in an exhibition at DAM in Autumn 2017 and a coinciding and uniquely comprehensive book. Some 100 contributors document around 120 key buildings from this period, including many previously unpublished discoveries that are in acute danger of loss through neglect or intended demolition. Moreover, the book features overviews of brutalism in architecture in twelve regions around the world. Case studies of hotspots such as the Macedonian capital Skopje or New Haven, Connecticut, and essays on the history and theory of brutalism round out this lavishly illustrated book. The supplement collects papers of an international symposium on brutalism in architecture held in Berlin in 2012.

Protestbewegungen prägen den öffentlichen Raum nicht nur durch ihre Botschaften, sondern in vielen Fällen auch durch ihre – meist temporären – Bauten. Dieser These gehen das Deutsche Architekturmuseum DAM in Frankfurt und das MAK – Museum für angewandte Kunst in Wien in einem Ausstellungsprojekt nach, das von der deutschen Kulturstiftung des Bundes gefördert wird. Verhandelt wird das Thema anhand zahlreicher Beispiele aus den letzten rund 170 Jahren. Erstmals werden hierbei verschiedene Protestformen aus baulicher Perspektive systematisch miteinander verglichen, u. a. die Barrikaden der Revolution von 1848, die Pfahlbauten der Anti-Atomkraft- Bewegung in Gorleben (1980), die Zeltstädte des Arabischen Frühlings (2011), die Baumhäuser im Hambacher und im Dannenröder Forst (2018/19) oder auch die fluiden, Laser-basierten Lichträume der Demonstrierenden in Hongkong (2019). Protestarchitektur, konzipiert als Lexikon mit 176 Einträgen und 13 auführlicheren Fallbeispielen, ist die erstmalige internationale Bestandsaufnahme zur Architektur des Protests und präsentiert diese in all ihrer Vielseitigkeit und bisweilen auch Ambivalenz. Die vorangestellte Chronologie porträtiert 68 Protestbewegungen und ihre architektonischen Manifestationen auf je einer Seite und mit einer Abbildung. Protest movements shape public space not only through their messages, but in many cases also through their - mostly temporary - buildings. The German Architecture Museum DAM in Frankfurt and the MAK – Museum of Applied Arts in Vienna are pursuing this thesis in an exhibition project funded by the German Federal Cultural Foundation. The topic is discussed using numerous examples from the last 170 years. For the first time, various forms of protest are systematically compared from a structural perspective, including the barricades of the 1848 revolution, the stilt houses of the anti-nuclear power movement in Gorleben (1980), the tent cities of the Arab Spring (2011), and the tree houses in Hambacher and Dannenröder Forst (2018/19) or the fluid, laser-based light spaces of the demonstrators in Hong Kong (2019). Protest Architecture, designed as a lexicon with 176 entries and 13 detailed case studies, is the first international inventory of the architecture of protest and presents it in all its diversity and sometimes ambivalence. The preceding chronology portrays 68 protest movements and their architectural manifestations on one page each and with one illustration.
