Book Description
The construction of a new cultural building at the heart of a major city can never just be a matter of an ingenious architectural design. It is often the focus of heated public debate, and many varied factors have to be taken into account before the building is finally realised. This book presents six projects in the light of the surrounding media headlines and the wrangle for positions in the public eye. In each case the central subject is the architecture; in each case there are architects and politicians, public money and media interest. All these factors are entwined, not only influencing each other but ultimately determining the construction of the building. This volume takes a look at some of our most popular cultural buildings from a fascinating new perspective, the chapter headings giving a hint of the stories to follow: The political symbol - Centre Georges Pompidou, Paris The pursued architect - Sydney Opera House The sole survivor - the Viennese museums quarter The powerful politician - Grand Louvre Paris The professional manager - Culture and Congress centre Lucerne The generous sponsor - Groningen Museum

Book Description
This volume brings together a collection of essays focusing on selected aspects of inter- and multidisciplinarity in contemporary Austrian culture.

About Star Architecture
Author: Nadia Alaily-Mattar
Publisher: Springer Nature
ISBN: 303023925X
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 337
Book Description
Cities across the world have been resorting to star architects to brand their projects, spark urban regeneration and market the city image internationally. This book shifts the attention from star architects to star architecture, arguing that the process of deciding about and implementing relevant architectural and urban projects is not the product of any single actor. Star architecture can, in fact, be better studied and understood as assembled by multiple actors and in its relationship with urban transformation. In its 18 chapters, the book presents a multidisciplinary collection of expert contributions in the fields of urban planning, architecture, media studies, urban economics, geography, and sociology, consistently brought together for the first time to deal with this topic. Through a vast array of case studies and analytical techniques touching over 20 cities in Europe, the book shows the positive and more problematic impacts of star architecture with reference to the preservation of built heritage, tourism and media. The book will be of interest to architects, sociologists, urban planners, and public administrators.
