Daniel Libeskind – Facing Gaia HUMN 303 Week 3
Libeskind — a self-declared “people’s architect” — always insisted that he wanted to create “a space for people, not just corporations.” But what is a “space for people”? One possible answer might be a space where citizens recognize their polity (and themselves) as subscribing to democratic values. Particular shapes or even materials are often said to symbolize such values: glass, for instance, is taken to signify “transparency” (and, by implication, democratic “accountability”). Greek and Roman statues are supposed to remind citizens of democratic ideals from the ancient past. (Mueller, 2015)
This week we are looking at Greek and Roman architecture and we are going to look at how they have influenced American architecture. HUMN 303 Week 3 This will let us look at how the types of buildings we make express our values.
The discussions are open throughout the class, but you can only get credit for posting during the week the discussion is assigned. That means that I will be grading posts in Week 3 discussions that are submitted between Sunday 9/15 and Sunday 9/22.
