Abstract

The archaeological approach to the study of elevations is applied here to 20th-century architecture. In particular, post-World War II facades are examined through several case studies. This research uses the method of the archaeology of architecture: the meticulous attention to materials, workmanship, and technological devices, the examination of the socio-economic context, and the analysis of the motivations behind specific choices. These elements contribute to discovering the history of an artefact in a given period of time as completely as possible. The archaeology of architecture has been widely experimented on historical buildings since the 1970s; very rare has been the application to the study of contemporary buildings. The authors, on the basis of the research already started in 2018, at this stage of the study seek to further develop the topic under investigation, also with comparisons on a broader national and international scale. The architectural surfaces of the second half of the 20th century are analyzed here by studying individual components on the facades: the colour and texture of the plaster, any tile, wood, or stone coverings, or the exposed concrete work. The final aim is to develop an overall method of investigation that considers the specificity of the period examined and the possible adaptation of analysis tools that can help in the archaeological study of these contemporary architectures.
20世纪立面的表面:对其考古意识的反思
研究海拔的考古学方法在这里被应用于20世纪的建筑。特别是,通过几个案例研究检查了二战后的立面。这项研究使用了建筑考古学的方法:对材料、工艺和技术设备的细致关注,对社会经济背景的考察,以及对具体选择背后动机的分析。这些元素有助于尽可能完整地发现一件文物在特定时期的历史。自20世纪70年代以来,建筑考古学在历史建筑上进行了广泛的实验;很少有人将其应用于当代建筑的研究。在2018年已经开始的研究的基础上,作者在研究的这个阶段寻求进一步发展所调查的主题,并在更广泛的国家和国际范围内进行比较。20世纪下半叶的建筑表面通过研究立面上的单个组成部分进行分析:石膏的颜色和纹理,任何瓷砖,木材或石材覆盖层,或暴露的混凝土工作。最终目标是开发一种全面的调查方法,考虑到所研究时期的特殊性和可能的分析工具的适应性,这些分析工具可以帮助对这些当代建筑进行考古研究。
