Alltägliches Erben
When considering historical cities, monuments and architectural heritage, a large part of the building stock is left out – marginalized as too ordinary or mundane. It often seems as if only “the highlights" make it into the art historical and preservationist canon. The conference volume ALLTÄGLICHES ERBEN therefore deals with fundamental questions about the perception, appreciation and value of “everyday architecture”. In different perspectives, international, historical, and theoretical backgrounds of the everyday are illuminated, building tasks and challenges of monument preservation are discussed.
