The Unburnished Arch--A Study On The Modernity Phenomenology Of Architecturity

In the context of modernity, the deputy whether architecture is a technology or an art has been influencing Chinese architectural theory since western knowledge began spreading in China. And so, in the complexity between technology and art and between western thoughts and its localization proceeding, Chinese architecture theory made the transfer of authority power and resulted uncertain tradition. Facing the modernity language hegemony dominated by the western, Chinese architecture theory has encountered the crisis of legality of modernity, which resulted in the anxiety of architectures of China and internal split of intellectual. To solve the problems mentioned above, through this paper beginning with the Phenomenology of Heidegger and basing on Marxist practical aesthetics, the author creatively issues the strategy to cope with modernity in order to make modernity impact on architecture clear and eliminate the difference on whether architecture is a technology or an art. By the effort of aesthetics, eliminate the anxiety of thinking and internal splits which is resulted by the shift from the China-western conflict mode to global conflict mode. By discussing modernity, some opinions about the architectual theory exchange between China and west will be offered and at the same time, the outline of the architectural theory from which the author understood have be drawn out.This paper has discussed the architecturity on four levels as following: (1) the architecturity as an essential property and character;(2)the architecturity as being pattern of human beings;(3) the architecturity as ideology; (4) the architecturity as a cultural spirit. By this effort, we can take the architecturity as a terminology in which architecture can be defecated, made it into the heart of gravitation of architecture essential tension, and be geared to the architecture itself theoretically. Based on the theory of architecture, then, the author have stated one's case about the modernity phenomenology of the architecturity, including the modernity of concept, the modernity of discourse, the modernity of pattern, and its relations with modern art, modern science, urban society, and its new identifying trend. Through analysis of individual cases and classifying its categories, rectify the modernity nature of architecture such as hologram, instant, accuracy, multiplity and distinctness, distinguish the modernity faces of architecture such as vanguard, depravation, kitsch, modernism and post-modernism.Besides, thinking and understanding the problem of architectural modernity in China, the author analyzes the background of pursuing modernity in Chinese context, and makes some architects for individual cases, especially to the local architects for their contribution in constructing the heart of Chinese modern architecture and their practical achievement for Chinese architecture, and points out the impacts of architecture works of the architects abroad expressed in China. Therefore, the conclusion is: the architecturity practice can make different architectural paradigms commensurable. And logically, the article is completed.
