Expanded Architecture - Temporal Spatial Practises is devoted to Australian architectural icons of modernism by Harry Seidler, casting current artistic perspectives on Bauhaus ideas and its advocates. Expanded Architecture comprises more than 20 international architects and artists who explore diverse notions of an expanded architecture through spatio-temporal installations, performances, and sound projects. The projects are contextualised in three buildings in Sydney designed by Harry Seidler, who studied under Walter Gropius at Harvard University. Following the Bauhaus tradition, Seidler is also well known for his extensive collaborations with artists such as Josef Albers, Alexander Calder, Frank Stella, Lin Utzon, and Sol LeWitt. Expanded Architecture presents an account of how Seidler's buildings have been used as a charged setting for a series of experimental encounters, here combined with a collection of essays by contemporary thinkers and critics with the aim of reflecting on new approaches in the relation between art and architecture. Expanded Architecture is published in cooperation with Bauhaus Dessau as Bauhaus Edition 47
Particularly after its move to Dessau in 1925, the Bauhaus set out to standardize architecture and design, promising that this would foster a better quality of life for the masses. Taking the design school's engagement with standardization as a starting point, Bauhaus No. 10: Standard looks at the idea of the "standard" from a historical and contemporary perspective.
Wohnen ist mehr als ein funktionales Dach über dem Kopf. Mit der "Charter of Habitat" forderten junge Architekt*innen beim CIAM-Kongress 1953 eine radikale Wende: weg vom Dogma des Funktionalismus und Universalismus. Informelles Bauen, Wohnen als soziale Praxis, Architektur als gemeinschaftsstiftende Gestaltung. Im Begriff "Habitat" bündeln sich die Debatten der Nachkriegsmoderne zur Neujustierung von Architektur und Städtebau. Er steht für eine ganzheitliche Betrachtung von Behausung, Mensch und Umwelt. Bauhaus #12 widmet sich deshalb dem "Habitat" sowohl aus historischer als auch zeitgenössischer Perspektive, weil gerade die Wohnungsfrage und die Klimakrise uns als globale Gemeinschaft heute herausfordern. Die Zeitschrift begibt sich auf die Suche nach Alternativen zur funktionalistischen Wohnmaschine in den 1920er Jahren am Bauhaus und anderswo, in der Nachkriegsmoderne und heute.Dwelling is more than just having a functional roof over your head. At the CIAM Congress in 1953, a group of young architects produced a Charter of Habitat calling for a radical shift away from the dogma of functionalism and universalism: informal building, dwelling as a social practice, architecture as a mode of design that generates community. The term "habitat" constitutes a pooling of the post-war modernist debates on recalibrating architecture and urban planning. It embodies a holistic view of housing, human beings, and the environment. With this in mind, Bauhaus #12 focuses on "Habitat" from both a historical and a contemporary perspective, because housing and the climate crisis are the very issues that challenge our global community today. The magazine goes in search of alternatives to the functionalist housing machine that was evident in the 1920s at the Bauhaus and elsewhere and which continued as part of the post-war modernist movement and is still prevalent today.
