Resumo(s)
The hegemonic definition of Modernism has been subjected to an
intense critical revision process that began several decades ago. This
process has contributed to the significant broadening of the modernist
canon by challenging its primal essentialist assumptions and formalist
interpretations in the fields of both the visual arts and architecture.
This conference aims to further expand this revision, as it seeks
to discuss the notion of “Southern Modernisms” by considering
the hypothesis that regional appropriations, both in Southern
Europe and the Southern hemisphere, entailed important critical
stances that have remained unseen or poorly explored by art and
architectural historians. In association with the Southern
Modernisms research project (FCT – EXPL/CPC-HAT/0191/2013), we want
to consider the entrenchment of southern modernisms in popular
culture (folk art and vernacular architecture) as anticipating
some of the premises of what would later become known as
critical regionalism.
It is therefore our purpose to explore a research path that runs parallel
to key claims on modernism’s intertwinement with bourgeois society
and mass culture, by questioning the idea that an aesthetically
significant regionalism – one that resists to the colonization of
international styles and is supported by critical awareness – occurred
only in the field of architecture, and can only be represented as a postmodernist
turn.
