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. -

Sacred Architecture in the Area of Historical Volhynia
E3S Web of Conferences 217, 01007 (2020) https://doi.org/10.1051/e3sconf/202021701007 ERSME-2020 Sacred architecture in the area of historical Volhynia Liliia Gnatiuk1,* 1National Aviation University, Interior Design Department, Faculty of architecture, construction and design, Kyiv, Ukraine Abstract. This article discusses the genesis and historical development of the sacred complexes of historic Volhyn. Based on historical and architectural analysis, it is presented that sacred complexes of historic Volhynia were built according to the canons of temple architecture, and at the same time they have their own characteristics, related to national traditions and regional features which appeared as a result of the process of forming Christianity as a religion associated with national development in the specific study territory. The results of a comprehensive analysis of historical and archival documents found in the archives of Ukraine, Poland and Russia, as well as field research are presented. Results of system and theoretical research of significant retrospective analysis of canonical, historical and political prerequisites of sacral complexes were generalized. The concept of sacred complex structures throughout ХІ-ХІХ th centuries is suggested in correlation with the change of religious identity formation and differentiation according to religious requirements. Existence of autochthonous traditions and genuine vector of the Volhynia’s sacred complex development, considering the specific geopolitical location between East and West in the area where two different cultures collide with each other has been proved. The work is shifting statements concerning direct borrowing of architectural and stylistic components of architectural and planning structure and certain decorative elements. 1 Introduction Architecture more than other forms of art reflects the state of society, its political level, the degree of economic development, aesthetic tastes and preferences. -

Following the political, religious and intellectual activity of two expatriates and close friends, Alexander Sturdza and Konstantinos Oikonomos, it explores how the idea of Europe was visited and how these two intellectuals and politicians negotiated and renegotiated to what extent their respective communities (Russian and Greek) were part of Europe, with religion as the central axis and the notions of the Orthodox world and Orthodox East in the arsenal of both. The first decades of the nineteenth century brought Russia and the Greeks to the forefront of the European scene. -

Assoc. Prof. Dr. Rafooneh Mokhtarshahi Sani Supervisor Examining Committee 1. Prof. Dr. Hifsiye Pulhan 2. Assoc. Prof. Dr. Rafooneh Mokhtarshahi Sani 3. Asst. Prof. Dr. Nazife Özay ABSTRACT Mosques are considered as one of the essential buildings in the Islamic architecture. They indicate the significance and value of Islamic architecture. In addition, mosques are not only the places for praying, but also they play the fundamental role in replying human’s social, political, economical and even mental needs. This means that, the relation between human and mosques can represent the dignity and magnitude of these Islamic center communities. Therefore, the spiritual concepts and divine meanings of this building should convey to human. One way to display these concepts is to use color in symbolic ways which can be as a tool to communication between human and mosques. This thesis focuses on to find the symbolic meanings of color in traditional mosques, by limiting the study to Safavid and Ottoman periods as well as Central Asian mosques. -

The great churches of Kievan Rus', built after the adoption of christianity in 988, were the first examples of monumental architecture in the East Slavic region. The architectural style of the Kievan state, which quickly established itself, was strongly influenced by Byzantine architecture. Early Eastern Orthodox churches were mainly built from wood, with their simplest form known as a cell church. Major cathedrals often featured many small domes, which has led some art historians to infer how the pagan Slavic temples may have appeared.
