In 1931, the Vienna publishing house Anton Schroll & Co. published Heinrich Kulka’s extensive monograph on Adolf Loos. In his text, Kulka discussed Loos’s idea of being an architect, he wrote about ornament and the reduction of ornament, and then, on about one page, he outlined Loos’s space concept, which he named “raumplan”. He emphasized a better organization and rationalization of interior space as Loos’s main innovation. However, when we look at Loos’s 1920s and 1930s houses, they boast of a huge waste of space (and money). After Loos’s death in 1933, many of his apprentices continued designing “in the Loos manner”, as Heinrich Kulka promoted his projects from the mid-1930s. At the same time, we can see that the apprentices‘ projects do not achieve Loos’s spatial qualities and proportions and their works had been contaminated with other inventions of architectural avant-garde. What was the real purpose of the invention and use of the term “raumplan“ by Loos’s pupils and has there been anything like that after Loos’s death? The lecture will try to answer this question using examples of post-Loos works by Heinrich Kulka and Kurt Unger from 1933 to 1939.
Dr. Ladislav Jackson Ladislav Jackson is an art and architecture historian, a faculty member and a vice-dean at the Faculty of Fine Arts, Brno University of Technology. He teaches courses on the 20 th Century art, architecture and design history. In his research he focuses on East-Central European architectural modernism, since 2016 he has researched the life and work of Jaroslav J. Polívka in global perspective. In the last 8 years, he authored, edited or co-edited over 20 books on architecture and design history. Between 2016 and 2017 he was a Fulbright visiting researcher at UC Berkeley. He also specializes in feminist and queer history of visual culture.
An informal conversation led by Professor Paul Emmons talking about the three elements: site, program (together forming the basis of the project), and the thesis (as the investigation). Professors Ishida, Bassett, and Bedford will be joining.
A follow-up student discussion about Thesis Week reviews and the question, ‘what is thesis?’
Organization and opportunities for the coming year.
