Title of the article | Architectural aspect of cultural identity problem |
Abstract. | Internal human life is connected with many cultural codes. Architectural are the most significant of them. Modern researchers of architectural space speak about an ego identity as one of the components of a place identity. Identification properties of the person are being changed in time as well as places. It defines the importance of event and figurative fullness of life in city space, legitimacy of any architectural phenomenon. The consciousness deprived of this identification base is regressive, the imagination is fruitless. Many problems of actual architectural process are connected with crisis of self-identification of the architect as inhabitant of a certain place (the city, the country) – the statement of global identity. Conditionality of creative consciousness an environment staticizes questions of judgment and the account in various architectural practicians of a regional component; it defines sources of identity of the significant cultural character – the architect – the citizen K.S. Melnikov. He defined the architectural work as «personal retelling of the present with a national shade of the Russian nature of the artist». Its practical experience of early «assignment» of space (finding myself in search of the native place) defines possibility of formation of identification properties at a training stage at children's architectural school. It is achievable through dialogue (work in group), through getting used to situation (work in real space), action of art imagination (the work directed on transformation of an environment), aspiration to overcome stereotypes of daily perception (the work directed on transformation). Possibility of «designing» of identity during form art experiment in the mode «here and now» is shown in the work by children's architectural and design school «DAShKA» at KGASU. Special efficiency is shown by game and creative practicians: summer camp open-airs, informative a quest game with elements of explaining the ground, an action of construction of temporary and stationary environmental objects. |
