Call for Papers
Studientag Augsburg
In the view of the successful initiative for a DFG-"Netzwerk Bauforschung
Jüngere Baubestände 1945+ (www.nbjb1945.de)" , which was founded in
2018 by a group of scholars from various disciplines including architecture,
historic preservation, art history and civil engineering, it is worthwhile to
take stock of the current state of research on young building heritage in
international contexts. The focus of the DFG network's planned study day in
the fall of 2022 will be on large-scale buildings of politics, education,
culture and sports, including city halls, city and convention halls, theater
buildings, opera houses, museums, schools, sports stadiums, swimming
pools and scientific laboratories. As solitairy buildings in the urban fabric,
they represented a bulk of cultural experience for the myth of open
(educational) societies in East and West. At the same time, these large
buildings are under great pressure to change in the course of current
transformation processes.
For the study day in the 2012 renovated Congress Hall in
Augsburg/Germany (today: Congress am Park), we request contributions
that touch on the following questions:
- In view of the sheer abundance of buildings - most of which were
expressions of far-reaching utopias and ideals after 1945 - is it now
necessary to research more "mass instead of class"?
- How can the inventory, the constructions, the building materials
used be recorded, how can they be interpreted and evaluated?
- Do new evaluation criteria relevant to building history necessarily
have to be found?
- And are new (network-oriented) methods to be developed for the
research of the inventory?
- Or can building history, building research and monument
preservation fall back on the familiar instruments for "building in
the existing fabric"?
- What is the significance of ecological and economic questions?
What perspectives are opened up by digitization?
- What are the advantages of participatory design in young cultural
heritage?
Für den Studientag in der Augsburger Kongresshalle (heute: Kongress am
Park) erbitten wir Beiträge zu folgenden Fragen:
- Muss man angesichts der schier unübersehbaren Fülle an Bauten –
die nach 1945 zumeist Ausdruck weitgespannter Utopien und Ideale
waren – nun mehr „Masse statt Klasse“ erforschen?
- Wie lassen sich die Bestände, die Konstruktionen, die verwendeten
Baumaterialien erfassen, wie lassen sie sich deuten und bewerten?
- Müssen zwangläufig neue bauhistorisch relevante
Bewertungskriterien gefunden werden?
- Und sind neue (netzwerkorientierte) Methoden für die Erforschung
des Bestandes zu entwickeln?
- Oder können Baugeschichte, Bauforschung und Denkmalpflege auf
das bekannte Instrumentarium für ein „Bauen im Bestand“
zurückgreifen?
- Welche Bedeutung haben dabei ökologischen und ökonomischen
Fragen?
- Was für Perspektiven eröffnen sich durch die Digitalisierung?
- Welche Vorteile bringt ein partizipatives Entwerfen im Bestand des
jungen Kulturerbes?

One-day-symposion / Forum Building Research Modernism II
"1972/2022 MONUMENTS FOR FUTURE IN PRACTICE" - On dealing with
young monuments of modernism
In the course of current questions about social justice and climate change
the resource of architecture, i.e. the building stock, is increasingly
becoming the focus of broadly conducted sustainability debates. When
discussing cycle assessment, CO2 emissions and operational efficiency, the
most frequently criticized examples of architecture are those, dating from
the 1960s and 1970s, the so called “Post-War-Modernism”.
Despite an immense wealth of research approaches on the various
tendencies of modernism between "International Style" and "Brutalism",
there has been a lack of knowledge so far above all about the concrete
foundations of modern building after 1945+, in particular about
constructions, materials and building methods. This addresses
methodological core competencies of building research to be able to
develop binding renovation and preservation strategies for practice in the
first place.

- series and scale: systemic issues of historic preservation (in climate
change)
