Gruppe 2:
In combination with the LVA 251.169 architecture documentation and presentation
can be selected from the following topics:
1) As a supplementary subject to the module Cultural Spaces 251.749
This semester the module Cultural Spaces leads to Travnik in Bosnia and deals with architecture developed during the Austro-Hungarian monarchy.
2) Architecture of the 20th century in Lower Austria
In cooperation with the Architekturzentrum Wien, Dietmar Steiner and the Stiftung Forum Morgen, the research area Baugeschichte::Bauforschung is working on the architectural guide for Lower Austria, which will complete Friedrich Achleitner's series on this topic.
The exercise will document selected objects and conduct interviews with architects.
3) World heritage
In 1972 UNESCO ratified the World Heritage Convention in 193 countries with the aim of creating an instrument for the protection of the world's cultural and natural heritage.
The World Heritage List, which sets out sites of outstanding universal value, was defined as an instrument for joint efforts to protect this heritage. Austria currently has 9 World Heritage Sites.
For the architecture and planning this means a challenge in many cases, as could be seen in the controversial discussion about the Hotel am Heumarkt in Vienna in recent years.
In the LVA there is the possibility to deal with questions of architecture and/or planning in one of the World Heritage Sites in Austria in a cinematic documentation.
