Corrective historiographies for architectural research
The seminar will consist of a series of collective readings of selected texts.
This seminar avails itself of the complexities and richness of pre-1850 literary sources on architecture to explore and discuss some fundamental methodological questions: who writes about architecture and art, and why? What is a legitimate historical source? How can we gain access to it? How do we develop an at once historical and critical approach? How does mediation generate interpretation? Etc.
Some say that there are two ways to write about architecture: to look at ‘discourses full of objects’ or, conversely, at ‘objects full of discourses’. This doctoral seminar course radically explores the second approach by focussing on the ordinary ‘things’ that buildings are made of (e.g. toilets, elevators, but also bricks, or carpets) and extrapolating general concepts from them.
What new readings of architecture emerge when the objects of research are not the ever-changing «heroes», «pioneers» or the «key buildings», but instead a series of «things» like the various network of expertise, systems, and objects that at the same time shaped our built environment? The seminar will focus on the overlooked «anonymous» objects of history.
“Architecture beyond the studio” is a seminar with the aim to reflect and rethink the formal and spatial aspects of the students’ own design projects from the perspective of the Humanities and Social Sciences (HSS). Literature from the HSS is researched individually, related to the design projects in the form of a paper and presented jointly in an exhibition.

History of Art and Architecture since the 1970s
Representation of architecture is inextricably linked to photography since the mid 19th century. As buildings are commonly discussed on the basis of images, understanding their technical origin is key to reading and making them. By teaching students how to use a 4x5'' view camera, the artist and photographer Tobias Wootton will introduce different techniques of 'thinking through the lens'.
Art History and Views about Nature
Kunstgeschichte und Naturauffassung
Since its emergence art history refers to various views about nature. Consequently, it has taken up and discussed theories from the sciences and technology. In our seminar, we want to analyse representative texts from art history as well as from the sciences ranging from the 19th century until today.

Advanced Topics in History and Theory of Architecture: Sacred space, sacred architecture?
Most religions assign certain spaces and objects a degree of sacrality. The actions surrounding sacrality reflect social and political hierarchies, gender codes, material practices, and economic realities. This seminar aims to critically understand the roles and functions assigned to architecture within the complex and often conflictual context of the sacred.
