What Modernist Education Teaches Us About Out Western Mindset<\/p>\n

Although in recent years interest towards Modern Movement has risen, the focus is often limited to the works of the pioneer architects. Simultaneously, up until recently some locations and their heritage have been more exposed to the public than others. For example, Modern architecture in Africa, also referred to as Tropical Modernism or a more recent term African Modernism has not received as much attention as its Western counterparts. The author of the new book \u201cAfrican Modernism: The Architecture of Independence\u201d refers to this heritage as \u201can amazing wealth of architectural works that are hardly known to people outside of the respective countries\u201d. On the other hand, as the original aspirations of Modern Movement were hardly limited to its pioneer works or specific geographical contexts it is crucial to draw attention to the wider virtues and diversity of modernist forms globally.<\/p>\n

Today, Modern architecture embodies diverse meanings in the various geographical contexts. As a matter of fact, the diversity of meanings, along with other influencing factors, is translated in the alterations the buildings experienced, the stories they embedded throughout the years and the public memory of them.<\/p>\n

One cannot stop but wonder what this selective approach teaches us about the western mindset; why do we are still taught that Modernism is a western invention and what can we as a young professionals do to approach Modernism with its original intention: `Better quality of life for all!\u00b4<\/p>\n

Please, join the discussion and small presentation on the topic.
\nYou are kindly asked to listen Prof. Tom Avermaete discussing this matter: https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=Dr0aRH9EX4E&t=3s
\nAnd read the article `Beyond Global vs. Local: Tipping the Scales of Architectural Historiography\u00b4 by Ayala Levin.<\/p>\n

Let\u00b4s leave our Modernist education backpack at home and be open for new ideas.
\nIn the eveining school we will have Anna Kintsurashvili lead us to the discussion. Anna is a recently graduated architect from Aalto’s Creative Sustainability program. Anna wrote her thesis with the title: Traversing modernist memory – Investigating, documenting and representing cultural heritage values and public memory of Uganda National Cultural Centre and Theatre<\/p>\n

What: discussion on architecture, modernism, colonialism and sustainability
\nWhere: V\u00e4re, Heikkil\u00e4-Wiherheimo work caf\u00e9 (in the middle of LMRQ-modules, entry in front of the Aalto Shop)

I heard some rumours that the Song Leader Seminar of Spring 2020 is here! In this seminar, you may have a chance to sing old and new songs you have never even heard of. If you are tired of singing the same old ko-ko-ko-koskenkorvaa or just really intrigued about learning new songs, you should definitely sing-up at https:\/\/forms.gle\/U6U1tjsRTd9QbzTK7<\/p>\n

The deadline for the sign-up is 28.2., and it is binding.<\/p>\n

By what I\u2019ve heard the seminar is meant for all students interested in sitsi-song culture and some songs from the brand-new international songbook will be featured as well. The night should not be over after all the singing and dining as the after-party might be held at the same location. Someone even said there is a sauna (and a hot tub) so better grab your towel with you.<\/p>\n

TL;DR:
\nWhat: Make (Markus) told me that it\u2019s this spring\u2019s song leader seminar
\nWhen: Around 5th of March, doors open 18:00
\nWhere: Not sure but might be OK20 upstairs
\nDresscode: Clothes are cool
\nWhy: Idunno, NEVERHEARD
\nTickets: 14e, paid at entrance (cash or MobilePay)<\/p>\n
