Contemporary Spaces of Memory - Towards Transdisciplinarity in Architecture

Abstract

The paper explores new phenomena in the contemporary practice of commemoration implemented through architecture. Architectural objects related to memory can be a place where new trends and phenomena appear earlier than in other architectural objects. The text is an attempt to prove that these new spaces of memory are a kind of laboratory where new ideas taking place in architecture and related disciplines are being tested. Research focuses on the bond between the complex and difficult problem of memory and the issue of transdisciplinarity in architecture. Over the last few decades architecture has been - in comparison to other areas - a relatively closed domain of knowledge. Contemporary places of memory - different from the traditional - may be the evidence of changes. On the basis of theoretical approaches, interdisciplinary surveys, in-field analyses and case studies the paper give insight into the relationships between architecture and other areas, emerging in the recently created spaces of memory of different types. The text indicates that today both the study and the design of such places is difficult without going beyond the field of architecture. There is a need for further extensive research, but the paper confirms the potential of this research direction. Spaces of memory offer the opportunity to capture the transformation of the discipline at the moment when the process begins.
