“住宅是居住的机器”在艺术学理论中的新解读

New Interpretation of“the House is a Machine for Living in”in Art Theory

住宅能给人类带来什么价值是学术界长期探讨的问题。勒·柯布西耶1923年出版的《VERS UNE ARCHITECTURE》(走向新建筑)中提出"La maison est une machine à habiter"观点,中国学者陈志华2004年将此译为"住宅是居住的机器"。本文从图像学和精神分析学视角将该观点再次解读,认为,住宅是为了居住的机器,这个机器是活生生的机器。因此,在柯布西耶的设计艺术本质中,住宅与机器,设计与精神是至关重要的存在。

What value housing can bring to mankind is a question that has long been discussed in academia.Le Corbusier’s "VERS UNE ARCHITECTURE" (Towards New Architecture),published in 1923,proposed the "La maison est une machine à habiter" view,which was translated by Chinese scholar Chen Zhihua in 2004 as " The House is a Machine for Living in ".This article interprets this point of view again from the perspective of imageology and psychoanalysis and believes that the house is a machine for living,and this machine is a living machine.Therefore,in the essence of Corbusier’s design art,houses and machines,design and spirit are of vital importance.
