2.1. Royal Ontario Museum
The Icing on the Cake: Large-Scale Museum Extensions to Historic Buildings AR 597: Dissertation Kent School of Architecture University of Kent March 2015 IOANNIS MEXIS Supervisors: Dr. Manolo Guerci, Dr Timothy Brittain- Catlin. Word Count: 8789 ACKNOWLEGMENTS I would like to express my gratitude to Dr. Manolo Guerci and Dr. Timothy Brittain- Catlin for the valuable assistance in writing this essay. ABSTRACT This dissertation investigates how historic buildings are conserved and revitalized by extension projects. More specifically, it is about large scale contemporary museum extensions to historic compositions. The investigation of the topic is achieved through a series of case studies based on three different types of extension projects: “Juxtaposing free- standing extensions”, “Weaving extensions” and “Homogenous free-standing extensions”. Through the first category we will investigate: the Royal Ontario Museum by Daniel Libeskind (2007), MAXXI Museum by Zaha Hadid (2010) and Stedelijk Museum by Benthem Crouwel Architects (2012). All three of these extensions, are examples of bold interventions that contrasts both the historic building and their context and have become landmarks in the cities they are located in. In the second category, we will examine: the Neues Museum by David Chipperfield (2009) and Tate Modern by Herzog and de Meuron (2000). Both extensions are in direct relation with the existing building. The architects’ interventions are respectful towards the existing composites, giving the existing building a refreshed appearance. In the last category we will explore: the second extension project to Tate Modern by Herzog and de Meuron (2016) and the James Simon Gallery by David Chipperfield (2017). Both of these free standing extensions are cases of interventions that respect the existing building and their context but still manage to stand out of their context on a deferential manner. -

Museum Architecture As Spatial-Storytelling - a Case Study of the Ionic Frieze in Two Parthenon Galleries
Medium, Mediation and Interpretation: Museum Architecture as Spatial-Storytelling - A Case Study of the Ionic Frieze in Two Parthenon Galleries Fangqing Lu, BArch, MArch, Thesis submitted to the University of Nottingham for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy August 2012 Abstract In order to convey the meanings contained within artefacts, museums commonly communicate with the general public primarily through the mediation of an audiovisual interpretative framework. In addition to audiovisual mediation, this thesis demonstrates the idea that museum architecture itself can make a significant contribution to various meanings communicated by artefacts. Drawn from a comparative case-study of the detailed interpretive frameworks of two museums, the thesis investigates the extent to which museum architecture itself should be considered as a medium of spatial-storytelling, providing a rich sensory context for the process of mediation and interpretation. This idea contributes towards a more meaningful embodied experience to the general public in order to support the process of ‘self-learning’, as well as passing on intangible culture through both tangible and intangible media. Through an initial survey and conceptual mapping of 130 museums around the world, two examples were selected effectively that offered a unique opportunity for comparative study as they are effectively exhibiting the ‘same’ material in different ways - the Ionic Frieze at the Parthenon Galleries in the British Museum and the recently opened New Acropolis Museum in Athens. Besides this survey of museums, other research methods included a literature review, interviews architectural analysis and observation of visitor behaviour, as the key data collection tools employed in this research, in order to evaluate the effectiveness of museum architecture as a medium. -

PROGRAM BOOK ARTICULATING ARCHITECTURE'S CORE IN THE POST-DIGITAL ERA MARCH 28-30, 2019 PITTSBURGH, PA ABOUT THE CONFERENCE Co-chairs Host School Jeremy Ficca, Carnegie Mellon University Carnegie Mellon University Amy Kulper, Rhode Island School of Design Grace La, Harvard University In his final essay, written while on life-support and published posthumously, the prolific architectural critic, Reyner Banham, attempted to draw a distinction between architecture and other modes of design. Banham’s essay likened the discipline of architecture to a black box – a device known only through its inputs and outputs, but never through its content. The elusive and absolute quality of architecture that Banham wanted to articulate resided, for him, in the how rather than the what, in the performance of architecture rather than its meaning. For Banham, the trope of the black box alludes to an absolute quality of architecture, a disciplinary core, but one senses in the unfolding of his argument, a similar dilemma to the one Chief Justice Stewart Potter encountered in his refusal to define pornography, and his defiant claim that he knows it when he sees it. In the nearly thirty years since the essay ’s publication, we find ourselves in a post digital world in which architecture has continued to broaden its arsenal of techniques and operate across an increasingly expanded field. The driving questions for this conference are: Has this unprecedented proliferation and migration distanced architecture from its disciplinary core or helped to transform and reinstate it? And what impact do these radical transformations in architecture’s cultural production have on the discipline? If Banham’s ruminations migrate towards architecture’s core, then at the opposite extreme Jane Rendell, architect and critic, conceptualizes architecture as a subject encompassing a number of disciplinary approaches. -
