“奇观时代”的建筑语言及其演变

Architectural Language of“Spectacle Era”and Its Evaluation

消费时代的空间生产由物质需求向差异、个性化需求的转型推动了奇观文化的崛起和奇观时代的到来。通过对奇观文化、景观社会、消费主义之间的关系及奇观时代的特点和成因的探讨,梳理了自20世纪60年代以来主要奇观建筑的演变脉络,发现消费主义对建筑语言的变迁具有决定性的影响。在批判性缺失情况下,建筑语言只能被动适应消费文化的变迁,逐渐陷入奇观文化泥淖。当下盛行的新几何学通过加强形式自治建构的极化建筑语言,固然能满足无限制造奇观的需要,却也背离了建筑本质,使建筑学异化为形式游戏和奇观文化的附庸。指出要摆脱这一困境,就必须回归建筑本质,回归建构逻辑和场所精神。

The transformation of space production in the consumption era from material needs to differentiated and individualized needs has promoted the rise of spectacle culture and the arrival of the spectacle era.To discuss the relations among the spectacle culture,landscape society and consumerism,as well as the characteristics and causes of the spectacle era,the evolutional context of the main wonderful buildings since the 1960s was sorted out.It was found that consumerism had a decisive influence on the changes in the architectural language.In the absence of criticism,the architectural language could only passively adapt the changes in consumer cultures and gradually fall into the muddy of Spectacle Culture.By strengthening the polarized architectural language of formal autonomy,the prevailing new geometry could meet the needs for unrestricted manufacturing wonders,but it also deviated from the essence of architecture,which made architecture become a form game and a dependency of spectacle culture.It was pointed that to get rid of the predicament,the essence of architecture must return,and the architecture must be returned to the architectural logic and the spirit of places.
