By Ruth Palmon Submitted to the Department of Architecture on May 23, 2002 in Partial Fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Architecture Studies ABSTRACT The objective of this thesis is to explore the relationship between the self and the house. In approaching the subject, my assumptions were that the basic condition of the house-self relationship is of tension and animosity and that architectural design, following a psychoanalytical tendency to reduce tension, is used to improve this condition. When great amounts of energy and care are invested in this process, the narrative of tension and its resolution is brought to the surface through architectural drawings.

  • Raimund Abraham: Rund Um Den Nullpunkt
    Falter, Wien. Nr. 13 / 1986 Raimund Abraham: Rund um den Nullpunkt Ein Falter-Gespräch mit Raimund Abraham (New York - Wien), anfang der sechziger Jahre mit Hans Hollein und Walter Pichler Mitbegründer des ‚Austrian Phenomen’ einer neuen experimentellen Architektur und heute einer der führenden theoretischen Köpfe der Avantgarde für eine Architektur nach der Postmoderne. Der Anlaß: Seine Ausstellung ‚Stadtfragmente' im Otto Wagner-Archiv in Wien. Seine Gesprächspartner: Dietmar Steiner und Christian Reder, beide tätig an der Hochschule für angewandte Kunst in Wien. +++ Steiner: Was uns ‚Hinterbliebene' immer interessiert: Warum weg aus Wien, warum solange New York, warum nicht zurück. warum nicht woanders hin? Abraham: Das ist einfach zu beantworten. Ich fühlte mich plötzlich eingeengt, es gab da so einen Stillstand. Mein Studienkollege und zeitweiliger Arbeitspartner Friedrich St. Florian, der schon an der Rhode Island School of Design tätig war, hat mich dann, 1964, für eine kleine Ausstellung und ein Seminar eingeladen und dort hat man mir eben eine Professur angeboten und so bin ich geblieben. Zuerst war ich ein paar Monate in New York, dort habe ich Frederick Kiesler kennengelernt und er hat mir sein Atelier zur Verfügung gestellt, weil er krank war, und so habe ich zum ersten Mal diese Stadt erfahren. Das war wie eine Erlösung. Und in den zwanzig Jahren seither habe ich gelernt, wie der Abstand zur eigenen Kultur Sensibilitäten hervorruft, z.B. in Bezug auf die Muttersprache, die man ohne ihn nicht findet. Inzwischen hat sich New York wie jede andere internationale Stadt auch dem Innentourismus geopfert . Die Leute verlieren ihr Gesicht, die Stadt wird anonym.

  • AIANY Announces 2020 Presidential Theme at Board Inaugural: Charting NYC 2020
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Press Contact: Camila Schaulsohn 212.358.6114, [email protected] AIANY Announces 2020 Presidential Theme at Board Inaugural: Charting NYC 2020 Incoming AIANY President Kim Yao, AIA, invites members to help map a course for the future as we usher in a new decade. New York City, December 11, 2019 – On Tuesday, December 10, 2019, the AIA New York welcomed its 2020 Board of Directors at the Board Inaugural. Incoming 2020 President Kim Yao, AIA, discussed her presidential theme, “Charting NYC 2020,” which invites members and professionals to map a course for the future. 2020 PRESIDENTIAL THEME – CHARTING NYC 2020 After accepting the gavel from AIANY 2019 President Hayes Slade, AIA, and thanking former Chapter presidents for their leadership, guidance, and support, Yao outlined the goals of her presidential theme for 2020. To Yao, this moment, as the second decade of the 21st century draws to a close, provides an opportunity for AIA New York to pause, look back, and reflect. As we enter a decade defined by extremes, with accelerating ecological, economic, and political crises, Yao invited members and professionals to face these challenges together. A key component of this work will be assessing progress made – or not made – since 2000, encouraging architects to look back in order to look forward. Yao’s theme will be engaged through diverse programming over the course of the year, including a major fall exhibition developed in partnership with MIT’s Civic Data Design Lab. Exhibition content development will kick off in early 2020 by gathering input and ideas for research directly from AIANY’s membership.

  • Radical Austria Press Release Website 20210119
    Radical Austria: Everything is Architecture In Radical Austria – Everything is Architecture, you will discover the mind-expanding, boundary-shifting and socially critical work of the Austrian avant-garde in the 1960s and 70s. Members of this group did not allow themselves to be hemmed in by traditional design disciplines, preferring instead to create buildings, environments, objects, fashion, performances, furniture and even experiences. Radical Austria – Everything is Architecture focuses on recent history with works that are even more topical and relevant today. The exhibition offers the first opportunity ever to experience the specific character of Austria’s contribution to the international post-war avant-garde in this way. It includes work by Coop Himmelblau, Haus-Rucker-Co, Zünd-Up, Walter Pichler, Valie Export, Hans Hollein, Angela Hareiter and Raimund Abraham. Cover of the magazine ‘Bau’ 4/1968. Model with ‘Austrian Glasses’. Austriennale - Austria at the 14th Triennale di Milano, 1968. Copyright: Private archive Hollein ‘Everything is architecture’ The worKs, performances, installations, interventions, clothes, furniture, environments and architecture of groups liKe Coop Himmelblau, Haus-RucKer-Co and Zünd-Up, and of individual designers and artists such as Walter Pichler (1936-2012), Hans Hollein (1934- 2014), Raimund Abraham (1933-2010) and Valie Export (1940), are responses to societal and technological developments. Whether optimistically and playfully or ominously and critically, they teased out the consequences of these developments for the future – the one in which we now live. What makes the Austrian avant-garde unique is its fascination for the body and the way its designs often extended beyond the drawing board: almost everything was actually executed and can be seen in the exhibition.
