1 Postmodernism and the Rest of the World
1 Postmodernism and the Rest of the World I want to begin with a gloss on my title. In yoking together “postmodernism” and “the rest of the world” my purpose is to suggest both a connection and a disjunction: in other words, an uneven relationship, or a relationship struc- tured in asymmetry. Postmodernism is no more idiosyncratic or singular than the world is general or normal. Nor is it the case that there are two entirely hermetic worlds: the one postmodern, and the other “non-postmodern.”There is lots of travel and traffic among locations and what they represent; and post- modernism, for whatever reason, has taken on the imprimatur of the avant- garde; particularly when it comes to questions of theory and epistemology. At the same time, as postmodernism travels from its metropolitan “Western” origins to other sites and occasions, or is appropriated differentially by the minorities and feminists even within the West, its truth claims get “multi- historicized” and relativized with reference to “the Rest.” My title attempts to engage this overdetermined binarity between “the West” and “the Rest,” and in the process think through and (if possible) beyond it. The entire book is an attempt to critically “theorize” the unevenness of the global situation from a postcolonial perspective. In other words, “postality” is a condition that has to be contested and negotiated between the elite avant-garde and the sub- altern. It is all a matter for a “double-conscious” but agential and perspectival signification. For one thing, I am interested in delineating postcoloniality as a form of double consciousness, and not as an act of secession from the metropolitan regime. -

The fact that architects were also for inviting me to develop this argument further. painters, sculptors, decorators, and designers of festivals and entries, as well I am also grateful to David Kim, Maria Loh, and as makers of a multitude of objects from luxury items to machines, clocks, the anonymous reviewers who offered very useful measuring and lifting instruments, in many different materials has also comments to an earlier draft. dropped out of attention.

Problems of the Baroque in 1975
T HESAVRVS BOLETÍN DEL INSTITUTO CARO Y CUERVO TOMO XXX Mayo-Agosto 1975 NÚMERO 2 PROBLEMS OF THE BAROQUE IN 1975 The following article does not try to continué the "Cri- tical survey of the Baroque theories" which I presented in this periodical IV (1948), 461-491, since this survey actually was continued in my book Estudios sobre el Barroco (Madrid, Gre- dos 1966, second edition 1973). Today I am rather interested in actual problems generally recognized as central, and in the attempt at their Solutions. There is agreement now on the fact that the transition from Renaissance to Baroque is such a slow process that it filis a whole period (roughly 1520 to 1600) which art historians cali Mannerism. One tried there- fore first to find criteria for the distinction of these two histo- rical phaenomena, Mannerism and Baroque, and to explain their fundamental differences and their possible overlappings. The second problem was, how the thus chronologically new- ly fixed Baroque fades out into something new which some believe to be the Classicism (particularly in France), which others, like the art historians, believe to be the Rococó. The latter still very debated concept supposes in retrospect a kind of coincidence between Classicism and Baroque. Furthermore, envisioning all this from a European and comparative view- point supposes time lags between the domination of a style trend in different countries, supposes the concept of dying and 210 HELMUT HATZFELD BICC, XXX, 1975 upcoming literatures, supposes the reckoning with the un- settled question of originis, and most of all, the importance of the psychological and sociological background which can- not be everywhere the same. -
Barcelona and the Paradox of the Baroque by Jorge Luis Marzo1
Barcelona and the Paradox of the Baroque By Jorge Luis Marzo1 Translation by Mara Goldwyn Catalan historiography constructed, even from its very beginnings, the idea that Catalunya was not Baroque; that is, Baroque is something not very "proper" to Catalunya. The 17th and 18th centuries represent the dark Baroque age, in contrast with a magnificent Medieval and Renaissance era, during which the kingdom of Catalunya and Aragón played an important international role in a large part of the Mediterranean. The interpretation suggests that Catalunya was Baroque despite itself; a reading that, from the 19th century on - when it is decided that all negative content about Baroque should be struck from the record in order to transform it into a consciously commercial and urban logo - makes implicit that any reflection on such content or Baroque itself will be schizophrenic and paradoxical. Right up to this day. Though the (always Late-) Baroque style was present in buildings, embellishments and paintings, it however did not have an official environment in which to expand and legitimate itself, nor urban spaces in which to extend its setup (although in Tortosa, Girona, and other cities there were important Baroque features). The Baroque style was especially evident in rural churches, but as a result of the occupation of principle Catalan plazas - particularly by the Bourbon crown of Castile - principal architectonic realizations were castles and military forts, like the castle of Montjuic or the military Citadel in Barcelona. Public Baroque buildings hardly existed: The Gothic ones were already present and there was little necessity for new ones. At the same time, there was more money in the private sphere than in the public for building, so Baroque programs were more subject to family representation than to the strictly political. -
Art Nouveau Ukrainian Architecture in a Global Context
Art Nouveau Ukrainian Architecture in a Global Context Author(s): Nelia Romaniuk Source: Kyiv-Mohyla Humanities Journal 6 (2019): 137–148 Published by: National University of Kyiv-Mohyla Academy http://kmhj.ukma.edu.ua/ Art Nouveau Ukrainian Architecture in a Global Context Nelia Romaniuk Zhytomyr National Agroecological University, Department of History Abstract The article is dedicated to Ukrainian Art Nouveau architecture, which became a unique phenomenon in the development of late nineteenth and early twentieth-century architecture. Along with the reality that architecture in Ukraine evolved as a component of the European artistic movement, a distinctive architectural style was formed, based on the development of the traditions of folk architecture and ornamentation. This style produced much innovation in the shaping, decor, and ornamentation of buildings. Significant contributions to the development of architectural modernism in Ukraine were made by Opanas Slastion, Vasyl Krychevskyi, Yevhen Serdiuk, Oleksandr Verbytskyi, Serhii Tymoshenko, Oleksandr Lushpynskyi, Ivan Levynskyi, Dmytro Diachenko, and others. Ukrainian Art Nouveau architecture was represented by five main architectural styles: modernist, folkloric, rationalist, neo-baroque, and Vienna Secession. Due to an attainment of the possibilities embodied in the constructions, developed techniques, and in the design of interior space and external features — such as walls, roofs, doors and windows, columns and balustrades — this style formed its own expressive system, which included a significant number of socially significant types of buildings (dwellings, schools, hospitals, warehouses, government buildings, places of worship). The styles of Ukrainian architectural modernism have not exhausted their potential and may yet have a continuation in contemporary architecture and that of the future. -

Modernism Without Modernity: The Rise of Modernist Architecture in Mexico, Brazil, and Argentina, 1890-1940 Abstract : Why did machine-age modernist architecture diffuse to Latin America so quickly after its rise in Continental Europe during the 1910s and 1920s? Why was it a more successful movement in relatively backward Brazil and Mexico than in more affluent and industrialized Argentina? After reviewing the historical development of architectural modernism in these three countries, several explanations are tested against the comparative evidence. Standards of living, industrialization, sociopolitical upheaval, and the absence of working-class consumerism are found to be limited as explanations. As in Europe, Modernism -
Renaissance Architecture History of Architecture
Renaissance Architecture History of Architecture No’man Bayaty Introduction • The Renaissance movement was a grand scale movement in art, literature sculpture and architecture. • The time in which it spread between 15th century and 17th century, was a time of movement in philosophy, science and other ideas. • At this time Europe was made of many small states united or trying to get united under larger kingdoms. • The Italian cities were independent, each with its special culture. • The Holy Roman Empire was quite weak, and the so were the Popes. • Local cultures were rising, so were local national states. • Europe lost Constantinople in 1453 A. D. but got all of Spain back. Introduction • Scientific achievements were getting more realistic, getting away from the mystical and superstitious ideas of the medieval ages. • The Christian reformation led by Martin Luther in 1517 A.D. added more division to the already divided Europe. • Galileo (1564 – 1642 A. D.) proved the earth was not the center of the universe, but a small dot in a grand solar system. • Three inventions had a great influence, gunpowder, printing and the marine compass. Introduction Introduction • Renaissance started in Italy. • The Gothic architecture never got a firm hold in Italy. • Many things aided the Italians to start the Renaissance, the resentment to Gothic, the discovery of new classical ruins and the presence of great Roman structures. • The movement in art and sculpture started a century before architecture. • The movement was not a gradual development from the Gothic, like the Gothic did from Romanesque, but was a bit more sudden and more like a conscious choice by artists and architects. -
