{"product_id":"14983-new-german-architecture","title":"New German Architecture","description":"\u003cp\u003eWhat is new German architecture? What are its distinguishing features, its character? This publication presents an extensive portrait of contemporary architecture in Germany. Well-known authors in the field describe 25 state-of-the art buildings and projects by German architects from 1990 to the present, and, by means of a selection of ten architectural firms, provide an overview of the most important movements in German architecture since 1975. If new architecture in Germany indeed reflects facets of the zeitgeist, if - according to Friedrich Nietzsche, with liberties - it is supposed to be architecture after the German soul, then the selection presented here primarily shows one thing: We have finally entered an epoch without \u0026quot;great tales\u0026quot; (Jean- François Lyotard). New German architecture does not lend itself to being forced into formal or programatic patterns, cannot be classified into schools, tendencies or clear traditional lines. This \u0026quot;lack of clarity\u0026quot; (Jürgen Habermas) is not only an expression of a farewell to great ideologies but also indicates a specifically heightened cultural sensitivity. Moderate, not overbearing, self-assuredly thoughtful, undogmatic: New German architecture is the architecture of a self-critical, reflexive Modernism.
