Provenance in Architecture

By Uwe Fleckner

0 - Default Title
Description
While the provenance of artworks represents one of the greatest challenges of current scholarship, architecture has been excluded from this burning field of understanding the past for the present and the future. Supposedly immobile, architecture embodies numerous provenance phenomena: Architectures of all kinds move through history in spatial, temporal or virtual ways. In this volume, these phenomena are for the first time examined across one hundred key concepts: from actual physical translocations to temporal change, from authorship, attribution and adaption to the migration of buildings and their components, from construction and material changes to expropriation and transformation, from decay, dereliction and demolition to the afterlife of architecture. Provenance in Architecture brings together richly illustrated contributions by international specialists to introduce a paradigm shift in the study of architecture. Uwe Fleckner is a professor in art history at the University of Hamburg and conducts provenance research as a director of the Research Centre of "Degenerate Art." Mari Lending is a professor in architectural history and theory at the Oslo School of Architecture and Design and directs the international research project "Provenance Projected: Architecture Past and Future in the Era of Circularity."
