Lehrinhalt

This survey lecture on the history and theory of architectural conservation introduces the conceptual foundations and core issues of the subject.
It begins with the emergence of the modern conservation movement in Europe in the late 18th and early 19th centuries, introducing a variety of viewpoints and approaches to the problem of destruction and change in the built environment. The positions of founding figures such as Friedrich Schinkel in Germany, John Ruskin in Britain, and Viollet-le-Duc in France are discussed, together with the debates over conservation versus restoration that dominated European conservation discourse at the turn of the 20th century. The notion of a „Modern Cult of Monuments“ put forward by Alois Riegl is analyzed and examined for its relevance today, as are the experiences of the interwar and wartime years, when the conservation discipline was conscripted to the service of politics by the National Socialists and others.
The emergence of international conservation and heritage organizations after 1945 and the development of an international discourse extending well beyond Europe provide a framework for discussing different cultural perspectives on conservation, its tasks and its goals, and the ways these have contributed to reshaping our thinking and practice.
The emphasis throughout the course is on developing a foundation of theoretical and historical knowledge from which to address urgent challenges now facing not only our field, but also the larger global society: challenges such as identity, inclusion and belonging, human rights and social justice, and climate change and sustainability.
Evaluation:
The course will include input from lecturers and professionals representing a range of related disciplines who will introduce specific topics or present individual case studies. Evaluation will be based on short assignments related to these outside contributions as well as a final written examination.

More generally, they way heritage sites are analysed is based on a visual examination. This visual assessment will be then used to evaluate the meaning and value of it. Other senses in experiencing a site are often ignored. This study project will examine the significance of that olfactory sense has to assess  and experience a heritage site, and in which manner odours contribute to the meaning, uses, and values of a site, in particular to the emotions they provoke in us today. This research is will draw in particular but not exclusively, from Sensory History, in combination with methodologies employed in architectural surveying.
Based on practical examples in the field (excursions) we will explore and create a ‘Smellscape’  to better understand the odours play in the contribution to the Sense of Place, of triggering memories,  and as an indicator of past and present uses, as well as possibly even (historic) building materials.
The study project will be offered (mainly) on campus, and will be carried out in English.

Contents
The history of architectural conservation, in particular the development of the values associated with architectural heritage, will provide one part of the theoretical background. Another one will be the various charters and international standards dealing with the current approaches and assessments of historical sites. Moreover, we examine contemporary challenges in the conservation practice, such as the management of change and the preservation of the values of cultural sites. Study cases provide an insight into the challenges contemporary architects and conservation experts are facing today when dealing with the conservation of sites. Among others, these include the preservation of the cultural significance manifested in the many historic layers and traces at a site. Accompanying to the lecture, activities during the semester can include the composition of a poster, reading responses, or a presentation, in which students can analyse and discuss a chosen topic.

Learning Outcome
The module aims to provide a theoretical basis of methods employed in the conservation of architectural heritage.
 
The students will
-       acquire basic knowledge about the idea of the values of monuments and their cultural significance
-       build on this knowledge and employ methods for critically analysing and assessing the cultural significance of architectural heritage
-       be able to map out strategies regarding the conservation and preservation of historic buildings and heritage in context

Lehrinhalt

In den letzten Jahren ist eine Welle an Rekonstruktionen von historischen Bauten über Deutschland gegangen, dafür sind die wiederaufgebaute Frauenkirche in Dresden und die Replik des Stadtschlosses in Berlin nur die spektakulärsten Beispiele.  Diese und ähnliche Projekte stellen den Höhepunkt eines Trends dar, der seit den 1980er wächst und zum Teil mit dem Ende der Nachkriegszeit in Zusammenhang steht – eine Zeit, in der die Möglichkeit und die Legitimität des Rekonstruierens als Ansatz zur Bewältigung der Kriegszerstörungen heftig diskutiert wurde.  Aber Rekonstruktionen sind nicht erst mit dem Zweiten- oder auch mit dem Ersten Weltkrieg zum Diskussionsthema geworden, vielmehr sind sie ein wiederkehrendes, ja ein immerwährendes Thema im Diskurs über den Umgang mit dem architektonischen Erbe und das zentrale Problem der Vergänglichkeit von Bauwerken.
Im Seminar blicken wir in die Geschichte zurück, um frühere Konzeptionen und Praktiken des Wiederaufbaus zu entdecken. Dann widmen wir uns einer Untersuchung der heutigen Situation und der aktuellen Debatte über Rekonstruktion, die sowohl öffentlich als auch in wissenschaftlichen Kreisen geführt wird.
Dabei gehen wir u.a. den folgenden Fragen nach:  Welche Impulse und Motivationen stehen hinter dem Wunsch, verlorengegangene Baudenkmale neu zu errichten?  Mit welchen Argumenten wurde und wird dieser Ansatz vertreten und gefördert?  In welchem Verhältnis stehen Wiederaufbau und Rekonstruktion zur Denkmalpflege heute?  Sind sie mit den Aufgaben und Prinzipien unserer Disziplin vereinbar und unter welchen Umständen kommen sie als Ansatz überhaupt in Frage?
Zur Konkretisierung der Diskussionsthemen sind Ortsbesichtigungen geplant.
Prüfungsleistung:  Inputs bei den Ortsbesichtigungen, Referat zu einem Fallbeispiel oder Sonderthema mit Hausarbeit

Lehrinhalt

The summer school "Studio Bagan: Exploring Counternarratives" has been conceptualized for students at the BTU and at the Yangon Technical University (YTU), Myanmar, who are considering a specialization in the field of designing in historic fabric and/or cultural heritage conservation. Additional requirements for participation in the summer school are adequate English language skills, a laptop and internet access. The program aims to familiarize students with international discourses in heritage conservation and heritage studies, methods of urban and spatial planning, and design practice in historic and specific socio-cultural contexts. The summer school will be implemented as an online format with student participants based in Germany (or elsewhere) and in Myanmar. The program will employ a blended learning format that combines self-study units with live discussion sessions and studio work using a variety of digital tools. The program will take place between 6 Nov and 6 Dec 2021. During these four weeks, an input lectures titled “Counternarratives: Heritage Processes and Practices” and self-study units will be accessible at via Moodle. Live discussion sessions and consultations for the related  studio work will take place Wednesdays and Fridays from  12 am to 3 pm (tbc).
The studio work will be themed around one’s grandmother’s house (or a comparable object). As opposed to an institutionalized heritage practice, in the studio work we are going to explore our personal agency in the process of heritage, putting to use tools and practices such as mapping, drawing, writing and photography introduced in the lecture series. Each student will develop their own case study around their grandmother’s house (or a comparable object). By this choice the case studies are not only questioning the hegemonic and patriarchic legacy of institutionalized heritage conservation but also its focus on the exceptional object. The aim is to create unique, singular narratives deducted from every-day situations. The focus areas for the studio work include memory & history, design & construction and urban setting & landscape context.
