    41. PLT Theater, Burgemeester Van Grunsvenplein 145 bouwjaar 1961 architect Frits Peutz/Bernard Bijvoet stijl Modernisme De voormalige Stadsschouwburg Heerlen draagt nu de naam Theater Heerlen en maakt deel uit van de Parkstad Limburg Theaters. Het gebouw beschikt over drie zalen een theatercafé́ en een foyer waar kan worden opgetreden. De grote zaal is, met een capaciteit van 1.057 zitplaatsen, de grootste theaterzaal van Limburg. In de vrije, strakke architectuur van de buitenkant overheerst het verticale, als tegenwicht voor de horizontale lijnen van de omliggende flats. De inspringende, donker gehouden onderbouw is hier medeverantwoordelijk voor. De rekwisieten- en decortoren is in de theater-architectuur vaak dominant aanwezig maar is hier een nauwelijks opvallend element. Uitnodigend is de grote raam- en vensterpartij in het front, gemaakt van aluminium en in beton gevat. Het wat bonkige gebouw verwijst met zijn ondoorzichtige vliesgevels en door het ontbreken van uitbundige versieringen naar de industriële architectuur in de ‘mijntijd’ Ir. Bijvoet was verantwoordelijk voor de inrichting van de grote zaal. Verschillende andere schouwburgen in Nederland waren in die jaren van zijn hand. Slijtage en het niet meer voldoen aan de huidige wet- en regelgeving maakten een ingrijpende restauratie en renovatie van de schouwburg noodzakelijk. Het gerenoveerde theater is in 2013 opgeleverd. 42.

He is married and has two children. Arets' work is generally characterized by a minimalistgeometric and austere approach that responds to local contingencies in a flexible way, with Arets explaining:. Subsequently, Arets organized the first European exhibition of Tadao Ando's work. With the decline of industry the city lost most of its status as an industrial area in Limburg and Frits Peutz faded from architectural prominence. As a student Arets undertook extensive research in the archives of Peutz's office, eventually producing the monograph 'F. J Peutz Architekt ' and an accompanying traveling exhibition. While in Japan Arets visited and interviewed several prominent architects including Fumihiko MakiKazuo ShinoharaItsuko Hasegawa and Tadao Andolater publishing these interviews and articles in the Dutch architecture magazine de Architect. All of this was achieved without abandoning for the moment the minimalist expression of an architecture degree zero, derived in part from Sol LeWitt and in part from Tadao Ando. In Arets completed the library of Utrecht Universitysituated in the Uithof area of the campus designed by OMA which dictated a strict orthogonal requirement for all buildings.

  • PRESS RELEASE the Heerlen Rooftop Project: an Ambitious Architecture Competition
    PRESS RELEASE Heerlen, 18 July 2019 The Heerlen Rooftop Project: an ambitious architecture competition. SCHUNCK announces an international urban design idea competition for an urban rooftop project in the heart of the city of Heerlen (NL). The city centre of Heerlen is characterized by a dense and diverse urban rooftop landscape. Large grey and sterile roof surfaces dominate the view from above. SCHUNCK and Heerlen aim to explore this unused surface potential for gardening, arts, farming, cultural festivals, music, cinema, coffee houses, sports, tiny housing and much more. Rooftop projects in cities across the globe prove that gardens, art, recreation and/or business activity can turn ugly sterile spaces into something special. To start a transformation, SCHUNCK invites architects, urban planners, landscape architects and designers to participate in this international competition. The participants are asked to submit their design ideas for the city-centre rooftops in Heerlen to make these rooftops accessible and sustainable. More competition information on: https://schunck.nl/en/rooftop-competition/ The deadline for registration is: 25 August 2019 About The Heerlen Rooftop Project The concept for The Heerlen Rooftop Project has two principal action lines: • stimulate owners in the city centre of Heerlen to make their own rooftops accessible and sustainable. • initiate and co-organize recurring Rooftop Festivals with the municipality of Heerlen and multiple, cultural partners to encourage (local) stakeholders, participants, entrepreneurs

Inleiding Mozaïek van eilandjes Na de ondertunneling van de A2 en de komst van de Groene Loper is de studie Stad en Spoor een volgende stap om het stadsdeel Maastricht- Oost een nieuwe toekomst te geven, met een volwaardiger plek in de stad Maastricht. Een toekomst begint echter nooit vanaf nul. Ze bouwt voort of reageert op wat in het verleden is ontstaan. Ze maakt gebruik van de kansen die het verleden presenteert of herstelt de tekortkomingen die daarin zijn gegroeid. Om dit in het studiegebied van Stad en Spoor goed te kunnen doen, moeten we dat verleden leren kennen. Dit document biedt daarvan een impressie. Geen doorwrochte en allesomvattende historische studie, maar een sfeertekening van waarom de oostelijke spoorzone in fysiek/ruimtelijk opzicht zo is geworden zoals ze nu is. Door de oogharen kijkend, zien we een gebied dat nog het best valt te omschrijven als een ‘mozaïek van eilandjes’, van buurtjes die door allerlei historisch te verklaren oorzaken nogal in zichzelf zijn gekeerd.

  • X-Screens: Röntgen Architecture
    When Wilhelm Conrad Rntgen first published his very recent discovery of the X-ray in December of 1895 in an article entitled “On a New Kind of Rays, a Preliminary Communication,” he wrote about a new form of transparency in which “bodies behave to the X- rays as turbid media to light.”1 The invisible rays 01/13 are described as a “medium” that penetrates objects and is revealed on screens. A floating technical surface acts as the most intimate witness of the otherwise hidden interior. An architecture is established that inverts the classical relationship between inside and outside, an architecture we still live in today, with our countless screens monitoring endless Beatriz Colomina invisible flows. Architects, historians, and theorists quickly absorbed the new paradigm – developing an entire logic of the invisible in the X-Screens: early decades of the twentieth century that remains largely in place. New medical screens Rntgen are today creating new forms of architecture as the relationship between inside and outside Architecture passes through another twist. New forms of intimacy are emerging. ÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊEven before he mentions X-rays, Rntgen describes in the second paragraph of his paper a new concept of transparency closely linked to the idea of a “screen.” The screen is actually made of a piece of paper coated with a thin layer of “barium platinum cyanide” that glows fluorescent when exposed to the rays. He marvels at the fact that paper itself is very transparent when seen through such a a “fluorescent screen,” so the screen is really just n i m the thin layer of barium platinum cyanide.

    2030 – The Post-Academy in a World in Transition Jan van Eyck Academie Policy Plan 2021–2024 Introduction: a letter 3 Where do we stand now? 5 Vision and departure points 7 Pillar I: Participants 9 Pillar II: Departments 14 Pillar III: Public Programme 16 Organization 18 Conclusion 22 3 Introduction: a letter When I was appointed director of the Jan van Eyck Academie in October 2018, I realized that the future vision I were to develop with the team and participants must correspond to today’s most pressing societal demands: increasing inclusivity and accessibility; narrowing the gulf between the rich and the poor; confronting the impact of globalization and the climate urgency. The latter being perhaps the greatest undertaking of all. It is a threat that impinges on many fronts, all the while affecting those in the regions with the lowest levels of CO2 emissions the hardest. These are fundamental challenges. How should we, as a post-academic art institute, face up to them? What are the practical and moral consequences of climate change for art practices? And how can the arts contribute in various ways to the complex questions of this era? We aim to research such issues together with the participants, the labs, the different departments of the academy, the partners, and the public. The Jan van Eyck is ideally placed to put these themes on the agenda, for we are an interdisciplinary community for imaginative and critical thinking, reinvigorated year after year by the arrival of new participants. By unravelling complexity, sharp perception, and analysis, unconventional viewpoints and perspectives can emerge.

    Nummer 2 Historisch tijdschrift voor Parkstad Limburg Foto omslag: Vensteromlijsting in de topgevel van Pancratiusplein 48 te Heerlen. Inhoud Oostenrijkse woningen in de mijnstreek 49 Door Paul Borger Tussen kopie en gevoel - Grafmonumenten en profane bouwwerken 75 Door Holger A. Dux Aangestipt 89 Door Roelof Braad en Wim Nolten Oostenrijkse woningen in de mijnstreek Door Paul Borger* Bijna iedereen kent de Oostenrijkse woningen in Nederland. Deze mooie, houten, alleenstaande huizen zijn meestal zwart van kleur. Ze staan vaak in groepjes bij elkaar op idyllische plekjes tussen veel groen op een behoor- lijke lap grond. Hoe komen zulke woningen in Nederland en een flink aantal in de Mijnstreek? Wanneer en waar kwamen ze vandaan en wie heeft er voor gezorgd dat deze woningen hier terecht kwamen? Welke aannemers heb- ben ze gebouwd? Woningnood in Nederland In de oorlogsjaren werden bijna geen nieuwe woningen in Nederland ge- bouwd. In de jaren voor de oorlog bouwde Nederland ongeveer 35.000 wo- ningen per jaar. Daardoor was er een tekort aan woningen ontstaan. Dat tekort was fors groter geworden door de verwoestingen van het oorlogsgeweld. Liefst 82.600 woningen waren vernietigd of afgebroken en 40.700 woningen waren zwaar beschadigd. De 38.600 licht beschadigde woningen en het grootste deel van de zwaar beschadigde woningen werden in de eerste jaren na de oorlog hersteld, maar in 1949 was er nog altijd een tekort van 250.000 woningen. 1 Om het woningprobleem op te lossen zocht het Ministerie van Wederopbouw in 1946 naar niet al te dure huizen, die snel te bouwen waren. Die vond men in Oostenrijk bij de firma Thermobaugesellschaft GmbH uit Wenen.
