Songyang-Regions on the Rise

Songyang-Regions on the Rise Conference

8–10. November 2018

Rethinking strategies for new rural developments is a pressing global challenge today. Dynamic urbanization processes shape large areas of the world – and China in particular – while the hinterland has long been a subject of neglect. To stimulate an international discussion, Aedes Architecture Forum Berlin presented the exhibition ‘Rural Moves – The Songyang Story’ this year, which led to the initiation of the conference ‘Regions on the Rise – Culture and Architecture as Drivers for Rural Development’ in Songyang County, China. The focus lies on the dualities and interrelations occurring in the relationship between the urban and the rural, always seeking to explore what culture and architecture can do in interplay with economy, spatial planning, infrastructure and ecology. This development might establish new concepts and therefore a new rural con dence and identity as well as economic progress and reliability as major incentives to make people stay or even return into the hinterland.

Hans Scharoun / Chen Kuen Lee

Am Donnerstag 11.1. um 18h Finissage Hans Scharoun Weihnachtskarten (1932-1947) 
um 19h gibt es ein Gespräch zwischen dem Künstler und Kurator Jaro Straub und dem Stadtforscher und Architekturpublizisten Eduard Kögel (Berlin)
im Anschluß laden wir ein zu Hot Whiskey Sours
Die bisher wenig bekannten Karikaturen Scharouns werden in der Ausstellung zum ersten mal öffentlich zu sehen sein.
Die Originalzeichnungen verpackt als Weihnachts oder Grußkarten waren meist an Familienangehörige und Freunde gerichtet.
In der Ausstellung wird am Beispiel der aussergewöhnlichen Korrespondenz mit dem chinesischen Architekten Chen Kuen Lee
seinem langjährigen Assistenten und Mitarbeiter, die bis in die späten 60er Jahre reichte, die besondere Kontinuität des
Freundschafts-Arbeitsverhältnisses zwischen Scharoun und Lee nachvollziehbar.
Viele der erhalten gebliebenen Blätter zielten mit ihren humoresken Gedichten direkt auf die Wirren der Kriegsjahre ab
und machen deutlich wie man diesen immer wieder zeichnerisch Paroli bieten konnte.
SCHARAUN ist ein interdisziplinärer Projektraum für Kunst und Architektur
Der Ausstellungsraum befindet sich im 3.Stock der von Hans Scharoun entworfenen
und 1930 fertiggestellten Wohnanlage am Jungfernheideweg 4 in Berlin-Siemensstadt.
Scharoun hat mit seiner Frau Aenne selbst 30 Jahre in dem Haus gelebt und gearbeitet.
Mein besonderer Dank gilt dem Baukunstarchiv der Akademie der Künste,
Tim Tetzner für die grafische Gestaltung und dem Leihgeber der Weihnachtskarten
