*다니엘 리벤스킨트, 드레센 밀리터리 뮤지엄 [ Daniel Libeskind ] Dresden Museum of Military History

반응형

기존의 역사시간을 거스른다?
역사와 시간을 재조명하여 현대적인 공간을 덧 붙인다.?
다니엘 리벤스킨트가 추구하는 일련의 작업은 과거의 시간현대적인 공간에서
치유하는 것에서 시작한다.
독일의 중앙박물관인 드레센 밀리터리 뮤지엄의 리노베이션은
그래서 지금의 우리에게 시사하는 바가 크다.
기존 건축공간이 가지고 있는 시멘트리와 전혀 상반되는
다이나믹한 볼륨의 제안은 전쟁의 공간을 깨내어
평화의 시간으로 되돌리려는 공간적 침투가 내재되어 있다.
98피트 높이의 140톤의 쇄기형태의 글래스는 그렇게
반투명한 물질로 기존의 단단한 콘크리트 벽을 부수고 들어가
역사적 구조를 잘라냄으로써 전쟁과는 상반된
아이러니한 상황으로 밀리터리 뮤지엄을 새롭게 조명시킨다.
-이것은 마치 기존 건축물이 가지고 있는 정형화, 보수적 성향 그리고
완고함 등을 다이나믹한 공간볼륨과 부딪치며 여기서 발생되는
에너지로 상쇄시킬려는 의도가 숨겨져 있다.-

이러한 역설적인 공간의 창출은 권위주의적인 공간에 대한
반응이며 잘못된 과오에 대한 반성이다.
우리의 용산전쟁기념관은 어떠한가?
권위적이며 상징적인 메타포로 가득차 있는가?
개선장군을 맞이할 개선문이 준비 되어 있는가?
... 생각해 볼 문제이다.

“It was not my intention to preserve the museum’s facade and just add an invisible extension in the back. I wanted to create a bold interruption, a fundamental dislocation, to penetrate the historic arsenal and create a new experience. The architecture will engage the public in the deepest issue of how organized violence and how military history and the fate of the city are intertwined.”—Daniel Libeskind


The redesigned Dresden Museum of Military History is now the official central museum

of the German Armed Forces. It will house an exhibition area of roughly 21,000 square feet,

making it Germany’s largest museum.



Since its 1897 founding, the Dresden Museum of Military History has been a Saxon armory

and museum, a Nazi museum, a Soviet museum and an East German museum.

Today it is the military history museum of a unified and democratic Germany, its location outside

the historic center of Dresden having allowed the building to survive the allied bombing

campaign at the end of World War II.



In 1989, unsure how the museum would fit into a newly unified German state,

the government decided to shut it down. By 2001 feelings had shifted and

an architectural competition was held for an extension that would facilitate

a reconsideration of the way we think about war.



Daniel Libeskind’s winning design boldly interrupts the original building’s symmetry.

The extension, a massive, five-story 140-ton wedge of glass, concrete and steel,

cuts through the 135-year-old former arsenal’s structural order.

A 98-foot high viewing platform provides breathtaking views of modern Dresden

while pointing in the opposite direction toward the source of the fire-bombs,

creating a dramatic space for reflection.



The new façade’s openness and transparency contrasts with the opacity and rigidity

of the existing building. The latter represents the severity of the authoritarian past

while the former reflects the openness of the democratic society in which it has been reimagined.



The interplay between these perspectives forms the character of the new Military History Museum.



“The dramatic extension is a symbol of the resurrection of Dresden from its ashes.

It is about the juxtaposition of tradition and innovation, of the new and the old.

Dresden is a city that has been fundamentally altered; the events of the past are not just

a footnote; they are central to the transformation of the city today.”- Daniel Libeskind



1. CHANGING PERSPECTIVE – The MHM offers different perspectives on German military history. The architecture, the new thematic exhibition and the redesigned permanent (chronological) exhibition represent both traditional and new forms of perception and expression. The juxtaposition of tradition and innovation, of old and new interpretations of military history, is the cornerstone of the new approach.

2. CULTURAL HISTORY OF VIOLENCE – The MHM offers visitors a history of the German military. But it goes beyond uniforms and weapons in its investigation state-controlled violence, offering new ways of assessing that history and the culture of violence that gave rise to it.

3. THE CENTRAL THEME IS THE HUMAN BEING – The central theme of the MHM’s architecture and exhibition design is an anthropological consideration of the nature of violence. The museum closely examines the fears, hopes, passions, memories, motivations and instances of courage, rationality and aggression that have precipitated violence and, all too often, war.

4. MUSEUM AS FORUM – In addition to presenting current and historical topics in special exhibitions and events, the MHM will host screenings, lectures and international symposia.

5. A NEW MUSEUM DISTRICT – Once a prosperous and heavily visited area, Dresden’s Albertstodt district, in which the museum is located, , has been deserted for some time. The new MHM will be the catalyst that turns the district into an international destination, a cultural center and a museum district. Made add’l change
