Paperback. Condition: New. "Expand your mind and look good doing it with these new boundary-bending works of theoretical exploration by some of the field's premier thinkers." - The Architect's Newspaper"This jog through the history of physical culture vis-à-vis modern architecture features a series of drawings (beautifully rendered in metallic ink over black paper) and an impressive assortment of archival imagery. Taking the book over the finish line: a collection of somersaulting, weightlifting, and jeté-ing silhouettes that are bound to elicit more than a few smiles." - Architectural RecordThe Advanced School of Collective Feeling explores the advent of radical new conceptions of the body-a phenomenon known in the 1920s and '30s as "physical culture"-and their impact on the thinking of some of modern architecture's most influential figures. Using archival photographs, diagrams, and plans, the book reconstructs a constellation of provocative domestic projects by Marcel Breuer, Charlotte Perriand, Richard Neutra, and others. This obscure chapter in the modern movement gestures towards a remarkable synthesis of the individual and the collective, a perspective that holds enormous potential for articulating an architecture of today.…

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Modern architectures evolution during the interwar period represents one of the most radical turns in design history. While the role of new materials and production modes in this development is beyond dispute, of equal importance was the emergence of a distinctly modern physical culture. Largely unacknowledged today, new conceptions of body and movement had a profound influence on how architects designed not only public spaces like the gymnasium or the stadium, but also domestic spaces. Hannes Meyer, Swiss modernist and director of Bauhaus in Dessau from 1928 to 1930, colorfully encapsulated this phenomenon in his 1926 essay The New World as the advanced school of collective feeling.In their new book, Matthew Kennedy and Nile Greenberg explore the impact of physical culture during the 1920s and 30s on the thinking of some of modern architectures most influential figures. Using archival photographs, diagrams, and redrawn plans, they reconstruct an obscure constellation of domestic projects by Marcel Breuer, Charlotte Perriand, Richard Neutra, Franco Albini, and others. They argue that the impact of sport on modern architecture was a discursive phenomenon, best understood by going beyond a mere typological reading of the stadium or the gymnasium, to an examination of how gymnastic equipment and other trappings of physical culture were folded into domestic space. The featured houses, apartments, and exhibitions demonstrate their architects response to, and attempt to dictate, the relationship between body, and the spaces and objects that give it shape. Documents the reconstruction of a little-known visionary concept by renowned Swiss architect Hannes Meyer that has left a lasting mark on modern, domestic aesthetic.
