Bauten – Bilder – Geschichten. Kunsthistorische Perspektiven auf Architektur: Festschrift für Christian Freigang
What defines an art historical approach to architecture? What intellectual pursuits does it engage in, and what knowledge can it ultimately produce? This Festschrift, honouring Christian Freigang on his 65th birthday, assembles fifteen contributions from his esteemed colleagues. The essays explore various buildings, images, and narratives spanning from the Middle Ages to the present, providing insights into these fundamental questions. Reflecting the diverse range of Freigang's research interests, the contributions have been thoughtfully curated by the editors to foster a scholarly dialogue.
Konzept Campus: Transformationen des universitären Feldes
The spaces in which academic research and teaching take place are often considered a minor matter. For the most part, they only receive attention when drastic changes are made. It then becomes clear that the campus has always offered space for very different designs.he contributions in this volume address historical and contemporary transformations of the campus. Distinctive architectural examples from Germany, but also from the Anglo-Saxon and French contexts are discussed. Political programs, ideological charges and critical perceptions of modern university spaces are made visible. The medial dimension of the built environment is also discussed. What is the role of artistic research and intervention in this? Can they uncover, subvert or even break the dominant logics of the campus and thus open it up for new appropriations?
