Description
[Hybrid Spaces of Transcendence. Why We Still Need Churches Today. Studies on the Post-Secular Theory of Church Architecture]Churches are visited frequently for their architectural impact and not only out of explicitly religious interest. They can be hybrid spaces and combine urban event culture (aesthetic transcendence) and a religious experience. Likewise, non-religious buildings of architectural interest can also support a form of spiritual contemplation, evoking or reinventing a religious effect. Both forms of reception convey a mutual need for self-transcendence, this transformation being achieved by religious and/or aesthetic means. Bringing these different ways in which spaces are perceived together, various (church) interiors and art events are referred to: Art - in its individuality, as an enhancement to a room or as a complete installation provides, by means of its exceptional appeal, the possibility to extend perception, thereby is an aesthetic experience of transcendence of oneself.
