Aufbrüche zur Abstraktion in der europäischen Architektur der Moderne
What part did processes of abstraction play in modern architecture in the context of cultural, technical and social developments? Anselm Treichler explores this question by analysing and re-evaluating modernist designs and buildings. His reflections focus on the close links between, on the one hand, new materials and constructions made of iron, steel, concrete and glass, and on the other hand, between technical innovations and design concepts. Amidst such changes came the exciting emergence of a new architectural language, which is presented on the basis of selected works by Schinkel, Berlage, Loos, Gropius, Mies van der Rohe and Le Corbusier.
- Comprehensive analysis and re-assessment of abstraction processes in European architecture
- Critical perspectives on aesthetic, technical and social developments
- A fresh perspective on key works of modern architecture
