Abstract

Le moment est venu d’archiver l’« architecture radicale ». Mais cela signifie de considérer ce moment comme le chapitre clé d’une trajectoire culturelle qui porte un autre titre : celui d’une architecture rationaliste comprise comme l’une des composantes du Mouvement moderne les plus expérimentales : machine à habiter, existenzminimum, less is more, etc. En se cantonnant à la période comprise entre mars et décembre 1969, Gargiani et Lampariello offrent ici une généalogie serrée du groupe Superstudio à travers leur iconique projet de Monument Continu. Les deux historiens reviennent sur leurs territoires philosophiques et mystiques, mais aussi sur ce qui rendit énigmatique et si fascinant leur hyper-rationalisme dans une époque de profonde rénovation sociale. Roberto Gargiani et Beatrice Lampariello sont professeurs d'histoire de l'architecture, l'un à l'École polytechnique fédérale de Lausanne, l'autre à l'Université catholique de Louvain.

Architectural works, in the material form of buildings, are often perceived as cultural symbols and as works of art.

Architecture of India

Indian architecture is rooted in the history, culture, and religion of India. Among several architectural styles and traditions, the best-known include the many varieties of Hindu temple architecture and Indo-Islamic architecture, especially Rajput architecture, Mughal architecture, South Indian architecture, and Indo-Saracenic architecture. Early Indian architecture was made from wood, which did not survive due to rotting and instability in the structures.

Classical architecture

Classical architecture usually denotes architecture which is more or less consciously derived from the principles of Greek and Roman architecture of classical antiquity, or sometimes more specifically, from the works of the Roman architect Vitruvius. Different styles of classical architecture have arguably existed since the Carolingian Renaissance, and prominently since the Italian Renaissance. Although classical styles of architecture can vary greatly, they can in general all be said to draw on a common "vocabulary" of decorative and constructive elements.
