Das öffentliche Interesse an der Debatte über die Rekonstruktion
von Baudenkmalen könnte erlahmen, nachdem es konservativen
Politikern, Sprechern von konservativen pressure groups,
Tourismusmanagern und insbesondere den Machern der Ausstellung
„Geschichte der Rekonstruktion – Konstruktion der
Geschichte“, Pinakothek der Moderne (München, 22. Juli -
31.Oktober 2010) gelungen zu sein scheint, sie als müßigen
Prinzipienstreit unter Denkmalpflegern zu marginalisieren. Wozu,
könnte die Rekonstruktionslobby fragen, eine Debatte fortsetzen,
nachdem doch weithin Einverständnis darüber zu herrschen scheint,
daß die Rekonstruktion untergegangener Bausubstanz einfach eine
Selbstverständlichkeit ist? Die in der Reihe Bauwelt Fundamente
erscheinende Publikation gegen das Rekonstruieren von Baudenkmalen
tritt dem Mainstream in streitbarer Absicht entgegen. Als Plädoyer
gegen die Simulation historischer Bausubstanz will sie die
Rekonstruktionsdebatte in der Bundesrepublik inhaltlich beleben.
Adopting and adapting historical forms is an integral part of
architectural design today. Strictly rejected by some and embraced
by others, this practice has provoked controversy since the
beginning of modernism. With its assertion of continuity and claim
to universality, historicizing architecture from the twentieth
century is decidedly antimodernistic—a counterproject to
modernistic architecture and yet also a part of modern times. The
diversity of historicizing approaches and the history of
historicizing construction have received little attention so
far—a fact that is especially evident with a comparative view
that looks beyond Germany to other countries and their building
traditions. This volume aims to take historicizing architecture
seriously as an architectural reality and one possible variation of
contemporary building, with a focus on describing and categorizing
its diverse concepts and manifestations. In considering
historicizing architecture as a contemporary phenomenon, the book
places its topic in the context of reconstructions and postmodern
ideas while also comparing it with nineteenth-century historicism.
This view includes also designs inspired by the classic modernism
of the 1920s.
