机器美学与现代建筑

Machine Aesthetic and Modern Architecture

机器美学的产生无疑与现代工业革命及资本主义商业文明有着深层的联系。国内对"机器美学"的研究多将其视为一种特定历史背景下的艺术思潮,进而逐渐形成一种个人英雄式的历史"言说"。而正是这种风格化的认识、记述式的研究和表面化的分析,进一步导致我国建筑创作长期停滞于一种形式模仿的状态。当下实现工业化依旧是中国现代化进程中艰巨的历史任务,因此深刻理解工业时代"机器"的美学精神,仍然具有非常重要的理论意义。

It is no doubt that the appearance of machine aesthetics has deep relationships with Industrial Revolution and capitalist commercial civilization. Domestic research always considers ＂machine aesthetics＂ as a movement in art, under the specific historical background, which results＇in a historical narration of personal heroism. It is this kind of stylized understanding, descriptive research and superficial analysis that further leads to architectura~ design in China today staying in long-term imitation of forms. Now industrialization is still a huge historical task in the process of modernization of China, so a deep understanding of the spirit of the machine aesthetic of the industrial age is still of very important theoretical significance.
