Rediscovering the Latent Dimensions of Meaning of Architecture:Architecture in the Age of Divided Representation and Dalibor Vesely's Architectural Phenomenology-Hermeneutics① Thinking
Using Dalibor Vesely's only monograph as a clue,this paper introduces and comments on his thinking about architectural phenomenology and hermeneutics.He starts from architectural representation and its crisis of communication in the shadow of modernity,uses the lens of phenomenology and hermeneutics philosophy to re-veal the latent dimension on which the communication of architecture relies and its historical transformation,and proposes"fragment"and"poetics"as ways out.His engagement with architectural crisis belonged to and contin-ued the trend of reflecting on modernism in 1970s UK,which makes his discourse more profound than other ar-chitectural phenomenology,providing a common and historic basis for the question of experience.Vesely's think-ing reveals the epistemological and historical levels about the crisis of representation,offering both a shortcut to the spiritual core of European architectural culture and an insight to a more public-oriented architectural practice.
