Within this is a re-discovery of the historical trace and its power as a polemical tool in the construction of images and their dissemination. This paper investigates the role of the objet trouvé within the activities of the avant-garde, with an emphasis on the theoretical discourse that was attached to surrealism in the 1970s. The objet trouvé—literally “found object”—became a fascination for both Dada and surrealism in the 1920s. Both movements used the discovery of objects (and the associated psychological displacement) to challenge bourgeois conventions of the art object and contemporary expectations of lived experience. In the 1970s there was, for the first time, a dedicated discourse on avant-garde practice which set out to diagnose the specific practices of the historical avant-garde and the philosophical motivations underpinning them. If modernism was characterised by the autonomy of the artistic object in this discourse, avant-garde practices in this period were defined by the conflation of art and life in artistic production and the rejection of aesthetic categories more generally. In this sense, the avant-garde can be seen as a distinct trajectory from modernism: a fact that has been made explicit in the theoretical positions of both Hilde Heynen (1999) and Andreas Huyssen (1986), amongst others.]]> Wed 11 Apr 2018 14:54:20 AEST ]]> Fortifying Sisyphus, or the architectural machinery of modern punishment (1820-1870) https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/

motivation for his journey is clear. Lucian writes: "[o]nce upon a time […] I went a-voyaging. The motive and purpose of my journey lay in my intellectual activity and desire for adventure […]. On this account I put aboard a good store of provisions, stowed water enough […] and put my boat […] in trim for a long and difficult voyage." This passage evokes both the mythopoetic conventions of classic utopian fiction and of the early Twentieth Century modernist utopia. In this latter tradition, images of transport and escape were used to support the argument for a new technological rationalism. It is not accidental then, that the first pages of Le Corbusier’s City of Tomorrow where interleaved with images of passenger ships, aircrafts in flight or other technological advances in transport.]]> Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:00:40 AEDT ]]> Mediocracy https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:16662 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:59:40 AEDT ]]> (De)compositions: intersections of architecture and music in the abstract films of Hans Richter and Viking Eggeling https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:17626 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:57:16 AEDT ]]> Bloody fingerprints: Tschumi and the avant-garde https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:16129 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:55:19 AEDT ]]> Slicing life: collage and its role as a neo-avant-garde strategy in architectural representation https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:19731 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:53:47 AEDT ]]> 74 Memorial Drive https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:16681 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:52:56 AEDT ]]> Magical mirrors: reflections on the industrial subject in Mechanization Takes Command https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:21543 Mechanization Takes Command, investigating further its architectural motivations and legacy. The writing of Mechanization Takes Command coincided with a turning point in Giedion’s thinking which began to question the role of technology within society as well as the moral implications this had for human experience (and the body). In rejecting a number of founding principles of modernism (and CIAM), the paper will demonstrate how the work intersects with broader concerns of the historical avant-garde, as well as dramatising the subject of architectural history in an original and methodical way. This exposition of a new historical subject, glimpsed through the ‘magical mirror’ of history, is of ongoing significance (and concern) to the concrete histories of modernism in architecture. As will be argued, Giedion presents this subject in crisis—divided and invaded by the path of mechanisation in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. The paper makes a case that, through this realisation, Mechanization Takes Command has an affiliation with the primary concerns of the historical avantgarde, and can be tied to the theories that supported them.]]> Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:50:26 AEDT ]]> Strategies against architecture: spatial tensions in Einsturzende Neubauten https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:5838 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:49:50 AEDT ]]> Residue: architecture as a condition of loss https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:5764 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:47:23 AEDT ]]> Against the wall: ideology and form in Mies van der Rohe's monument to Rosa Luxemburg and Karl Liebknecht https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:30703 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:35:08 AEDT ]]> Innovation and Marxism: architectural production within late capitalism https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:25301 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:30:19 AEDT ]]> The fort https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:3697 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:23:05 AEDT ]]> Architecture, music and the crowd in the Pink Floyd's The Wall https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:4088 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:22:16 AEDT ]]> Strategies against architecture: traces of deconstruction in the spatial interrogations of Einsturzende Neubauten https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:4087 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:22:16 AEDT ]]> Architecture and Hermaphroditism: gender ambiguity and the forbidden antecedents of architectural form https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:3920 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:20:04 AEDT ]]> Homosexuality and the Star Hotel: exploring the traces of queer space in Newcastle in the 1970s https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:4017 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:19:37 AEDT ]]> Architecture and ethnography: reflections on the structure and organisation of architectural practice https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:24755 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:14:04 AEDT ]]> Dividing lines: space and image as strategies of the avant-garde https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:23146 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:10:35 AEDT ]]> Parallax Projections: Decay, Entropy and Obsolescence at Wangi Power Station https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:49689 Mon 29 May 2023 11:29:51 AEST ]]> Sympathetic World-making: Drawing-out Ecological-Empathy https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:50058 Fri 30 Jun 2023 10:10:29 AEST ]]> The Archive of Power: Drawings and Wangi Power Station https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:47278 Fri 13 Jan 2023 10:24:43 AEDT ]]>
