Anotation | The research project Od obelisku k střídmosti: Brněnská architektura 19. století (From the Obelisk to Moderation. Brno Architecture of the Nineteenth Century) provides the first overall and synthetic depiction of the development of Brno architecture, town-planning and care for monuments over the century defined by the years 1815-1915. The overall picture will be presented in connection with other art disciplines (visual arts, artistic crafts), as well as in connection with general history, sociology and finally in connection with art history in Moravia, in the Czech Lands and in Central Europe. The main outcome of the project will be a monograph of the same name, which will include attachments in the form of registers, biographical profiles of architects and artists, and a catalogue covering the most prominent works, both complete and uncompleted or unpreserved. |
