Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Global-Neutral embarks on an architectural search for traces in postcolonial contexts. It documents buildings and projects by Austrian architects in African and Asian countries realized between 1955 and 1989-a period of global political upheaval during which numerous states gained independence from European colonial powers and international cooperation was increasingly marked by Cold War tensions. Designs by Djamshid Farassat, Hans Hollein, Shahrzad Seradj-Kraupp, Helene Koller-Buchwieser, Norbert Heltschl, Carl Pruscha, Hannes Lintl, Roland Rainer, and Anton Schweighofer, among others, illustrate transnational dimensions and reveal surprising connections between Austria and the Global South. In seven chapters, lavishly illustrated with reproductions of plans, images of models, photographs, and other documents from Architekturzentrum Wien's collection, the book guides readers through the complex entanglements of architecture, geopolitics, development cooperation, and transnational knowledge exchange. Scholarly essays and other contributions by international authors expand on historical, political, and cultural contexts and offer local reflections from Nepal, Indonesia, Nigeria, and Abu Dhabi.; Global - Neutral begibt sich auf architektonische Spurensuche in postkolonialen Kontexten: Dokumentiert werden Projekte österreichischer Architekt:innen in Ländern Afrikas und Asiens zwischen 1955 und 1989 - einer Phase weltpolitischer Umbrüche, in der zahlreiche Staaten ihre Unabhängigkeit von den europäischen Kolonialmächten erlangten und internationale Kooperationen zunehmend von den Spannungen des Kalten Krieges geprägt waren. Entwürfe unter anderen von Djamshid Farassat, Hans Hollein, Shahrzad Seradj-Kraupp, Helene Koller-Buchwieser, Norbert Heltschl, Carl Pruscha, Hannes Lintl, Roland Rainer und Anton Schweighofer verdeutlichen transnationale Dimensionen und eröffnen überraschende Verbindungen zwischen Österreich und dem Globalen Süden. Die sieben reich mit Plan- und Modellabbildungen, Fotografien und Dokumenten aus dem Sammlungsbestand des Architekturzentrums Wien illustrierten Kapitel des Buches führen durch komplexe Verflechtungen von Architektur, Geopolitik, Entwicklungszusammenarbeit und transnationalem Wissensaustausch. Die Essays und Beiträge internationaler Autor:innen erweitern das Archivmaterial um historische, politische und kulturelle Kontexte sowie um ortsspezifische Reflexionen aus Nepal, Indonesien, Nigeria und Abu Dhabi.…
