Item type:Publication, Architecting Nature: The Pastoral Genre in Art Museum Design(Institute of History Slovak Academy of Sciences, 2023-07-17)Meri Batakoja, Karin ŠermanHow often do we get conscious of the fact that the function of art in general, and in relation to architectural space in particular, was dramatically changing throughout the course of history? And how is the consciousness of this historical transformative process relevant for the cultural and architectural discourse on museums and their architecture today? These are the main questions addressed in this paper, approached through a focus on the notion of leisure as a philosophy of good, or rather, healthy way of living and how it was embedded within the Renaissance spatial concept of diaeta, as a decisive element of the pastoral genre. Yet, as opposed to the pastoral genre in art and literature, where it was fully assessed and researched as a set of formal and operational means for expressing that particular philosophy, pastoral genre in architecture has not been sufficiently theorised. This paper provides a theoretical and historical inquiry into the pastoral genre as a promising topic of reconciling the perennial art-nature antithesis as practice of good, healthy life. The paper investigates the capacities of architecture to use such potent concepts from the broader cultural field and translate, or better transcode them into its own specific disciplinary language. In the end, it examines whether, and how, the concept of the pastoral survived at the onset of Modernity and whether it has both relevance and a future in the architectural and museum’s world today. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, МАПИРАЊЕ НА „СИНТЕЗАТА НА УМЕТНОСТИТЕ“ ВО МАКЕДОНСКИ КОНТЕКСТ(INSTITUTE OF MACEDONIAN LITERATURE/ИНСТИТУТ ЗА МАКЕДОНСКА ЛИТЕРАТУРА, 2022)Meri Batakoja“The Synthesis of the Arts” is institutionalized as phenomenon through the German language in the 19th century: Gesamtkunstwerk (total work of art) and Einheitskunstwerk (unified artwork). Although both terms signify unity of architecture, painting and sculpture, the first refers to the synthesis of the arts based on creative collaborations, while keeping up the autonomy of the expressions as different components, and the second refers to an essential unity between arts as common conceptual foundation of inner-cause and artistic principles that produce unified and indivisible artwork. We can recognize Gesamtkunstwerk throughout whole architectural history, while Einheitskunstwerk belongs exclusively to the epoch of modernity and modern architectural thought. We recognize “The Synthesis of the Arts” in Macedonian context as self-conscious method and goal in the formation of the creative groups of mixed character (painters, sculptors, architects, etc.), following the example of the Yugoslav avant-garde in the mid-twentieth century. This paper represents original mapping of the manifestations of this phenomenon of “The Synthesis of the Arts” in Macedonian context, a specific episode of Macedonian modernism, and serves as a methodological base for further inquiries. It promotes detailing of theoretical knowledge derived from the broader cultural context as a significant tool in the process of learning architecture, and the relevance of the phenomenon “The Synthesis of the Arts” in the study of Macedonian architecture. It also highlights the important difference between architectural historiography and architectural biography of one city. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, The Experiential Museum – Avant-Garde Spatial Experiments and the Reorganization of the Human Sensorium(Architektúra & urbanizmus, Department of Architecture of the Institute of History of the Slovak Academy of Sciences, 2021-07) ;Meri BatakojaKarin ŠermanAvant-garde artistic experiments are unquestionably recognized as relevant to the museum field in the context of art and museum studies. This paper aims to reconfirm their relevance in the architectural context as well, selecting crucial cases and protagonists whose final products were not artworks or exhibitions per se, but new (concepts of) space. These new concepts of space were all treated as democratic and participatory new media capable of training and modernizing the whole of our human sensorium. In this way, a curious partnership is discovered between this “experiential” art museum and the discourse on architectural modernity. Imaginary space, expressionist space, correlational space, multimedia space and situationist space – these are the principal categories that this paper recognizes as five distinct productive devices for modernist perceptual reorganization. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Manoeuvre(Department of Architecture and Arts of the Iuav University of Venice, Italy, 2021-07-19) ;Ivanovska Deskova, Ana; Deskov, VladimirFollowing the fall of the Berlin wall in 1989, the early 1990s brought turbulent dissolution of the socialist world, to which Republic of Macedonia belonged as part of the Yugoslav Federation. Since its independence in 1991, along with challenges related to the political, economic and social restructuring, the post-socialist transition triggered dynamic spatial transformation, particularly in the cities. The capital, Skopje, like many other post-socialist cities found itself developing in an interregnum – the ‘old’ was dying and the ‘new’ was unable to be born. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Constructing the City of Solidarity: Alfred Roth’s Elementary School in Skopje(Department of Architecture – Alma Mater Studiorum – University of Bologna, 2020-10-29) ;Ivanovska Deskova, Ana ;Deskov, VladimirIn 1963, Skopje suffered an earthquake of catastrophic proportions that left the city reduced to rubble. What followed was a case of immense international solidarity. For more than a decade, aid came in abundance from both sides of the Iron Curtain. In a short but intense period of approximately 15 years, the city underwent a process of reconstruction that entirely changed its appearance and the quality of living. In this context, with a strong belief in the importance of high-quality modern education, the Swiss government donated the design, financed the construction and equipped an exemplary school building, designed by Alfred Roth and named after the renowned Swiss pedagogue Johann Heinrich Pestalozzi. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Challenging Disregard: The Case of the Telecommunication Center in Skopje("Ion Mincu" University Press, Bucharest, 2019) ;Ivanovska Deskova, Ana ;Deskov, VladimirIn 1963, Skopje suffered a catastrophic earthquake that left the city reduced to rubble. The post-earthquake renewal led by the UN propelled unprecedented international solidarity. Previously unknown, this peripheral city became a field of global cooperation and a laboratory for testing the latest urban and architectural paradigms. The process that, at its highest intensity, lasted less than 20 years resulted in the most powerful segment of Skopje’s recent architectural history. During the past decades, Skopje underwent another transformation. The changes in the political, economic and cultural context led towards a generalized neglect of the recent architectural heritage, on the one hand, and on the other hand, towards a process of dramatic spatial remodeling. By focusing on the example of the iconic Telecommunication Center designed by architect Janko Konstantinov, this paper intends to show how architectural preservation can sometimes assume the form of individual activism. Harboring an obsolete program and suffering systematical neglect, the Telecommunication Center can definitely be ascribed to the category of endangered heritage. This begs the question of how one can act when the social and aesthetic values of heritage are under attack; when the institutions are not only ignorant, but are at times in favor of this violent erasure of personal and collective history? How to demonstrate that a building is significant enough to be considered heritage? In a context that is strongly politically and ideologically driven, through a process of “experimental preservation,” the authors of this paper used the Telecommunication Center as a trigger for the larger revaluation process of modernist heritage. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Lighting of the Working Space(South East Europian Journal of Architecture and Design, 2022-10-26); ; The primary subject of this research is defining the workspace through the impact of light and the size of openings through which light penetrates. In that sense, workplace is taken as a model that is researched and analyzed from the aspect of geometry and proportion. The workplace, being an elementary space in which human’s act, represents space which is continuously resided in for thelongest period of time throughout the day. For that reason, the natural light penetrating through the light openings, as well as the view from them on the outside world, is a crucial factor for the quality of space.
