Architecture Unbound: A Century of the Disruptive Avant-Garde

This book talk by Joseph Giovannini will review his work by tracing our current architecture landscape to the disruptive scientific advances and transgressive art movements that took place in Europe before and after World War I. It will reflect on the movements across disciplines and social systems as they contributed to architecture and challenged the status quo. This journey involves the work of influential agents such as Frank Gehry, Zaha Hadid and Rem Koolhaas. It is certainly a great opportunity to explore the ways in which socio political events affect our built environment and our perspective.

‘The Gesamtkunstwerk Movement, Part I: Architecture As Art’ Webinar

Gesamtkunstwerk means “total work of art” in German, and it refers to a design movement which attempted to synthesize all the parts of a building into an artistic whole. As the 19th Century progressed towards the Industrial Age, new forms of architectural expression evolved in this direction. This talk will analyze the movement, its main agents, the main buildings that were developed during this era and the influences on current design. The three-part series will start this month with an exploration by David V. Griffin of Landmark Branding of the early attempts by architects to potentialize the artistic qualities of designs.
