In Between the Millions / Bland Miljonerna

Vestlund, Elin January 2013 (has links)
En undersökning av alternativa boenden i Hovsjö, Södertälje, anpassade efter ett varmare svenskt klimat. En typ av kollektivboenden inom befintligt hyresrättsystem där hyresgästerna gemensamt sköter dagvattensystem och odling för att förbereda sig för ett folktätare och varmare Stockholm. Projektet är en sammanställning av en rad typologier av alternativa boendemiljöer som framkommit under processens gång. Alla typologier följer samma tema där fasaden blivit ett rum, ett klimatskikt för reglering av dagsljus och isolering - en förlängning och omprogrammering av det privata rummet. Projektet är ett resultat utifrån en undersökning av aktuella klimatrapporter utgivna av Stockholms län, i första hand baserade på undersökningar av SMHI. Övriga inspirationskällor och undersökningar har varit svenskt eko-vänligt byggande och traditionell japansk arkitektur i form av relation mellan natur och boende. Huvudsyftet har varit att undersöka en annorlunda stadsstruktur som inte ser klimatförändringarna som enbart problem utan tar tillvara på ett varmare och blötare klimat som i sin tur gynnar sociala aspekter och hållbart byggande. / A research of alternative living in Hovsjö, Södertälje, adapting to the circumstances of a warmer, Swedish climate. It is a sort of collective housing within the existing network of apartments, where  residents together operate the surface water and urban farming to prepare for a more warm and densely populated capital. The project consist of a number of typologies of alternative housing, where the facade has become a room its self. It regulates daylight and offers isolation but is also an extension of the private room and a connection to the surrounding nature and neighbors. The project is a result of a climate research based on reports published by the Stockholm county. It’s basic data for the surrounding municipalities to adapt and prepare for a warmer climate year 2100. Other sources of inspiration has been Swedish eco-friendly architecture and a study trip to Japan regarding their traditional housing, where nature blends with indoor spaces. The main purpose has been to consider a warmer climate as an opportunity to change rather than an obstacle, and therefor take advantage of its circumstances to strengthen social aspects and sustainable housing.

Det omättliga ögat

Ljung, Bo January 2020 (has links)
This is a master thesis dealing with reception-theoretical aspects of the 96 meter long photomontage called That day and that grief, created by the Swedish photographer and artist Larseric Vänerlöf. The artwork is situated in the Karlaplan metro-station in Stockholm. The text is an extension of the master thesis that I wrote in 2017-2018, entitled The Cinematic eye. This new essay aims to deepen the understanding of how the photomontage reveals it´s meaning and how it is received by the viewer in the metro context at Karlaplan. Main questions: 1/ What is it in this big photomontage, that makes the viewing travellers, wanting to stay and watch it, even though they are in a hurry towards another place, in another matter? 2/ How does this artwork speak to me and how does it want me to watch it? 3/ What does the photomontage want to tell me? 4/ What does the work represents? Since my study focuses on the imagery and communication-act of the artwork, I find semiotics and reception-theory as the obvious theoretical tools. Part of the interpretation of the image relates to the semiotics of Roland Barthes and his statement that all images are polysemic and ambiguous and that they are culturally and historically conditioned. In my conclusion I discuss and to some extent challenge the mechanism and interaction between literal, denoting information and symbolic connotation in the viewer’s reception. The reception analysis is based on Wofgang Kemps conceptual apparatus formulated in The work of Art and its Beholder (1998), and Peter Gillgrens concept of interartial references. Hans Georg Gadamers view of art as a performative game complements the essays theoretical construction. I use a deductive and systematic interpretive working method. Based on the chosen semiotic and reception theoretical formation and through my questions, I have studied the phenomenology of the photomontage, i.e. as an artistic and linguistic phenomenon. Empathy in site/location, beholder and zeitgeist form the basis of the methodological work.The conclusions of the thesis are radically different from that of my former text from 2017-18. Imagery and symbolic ambiguities and focalics that refuse to reveal the "meaning" and content of the photomontage, activate the viewer in a performative way and creates a highly communicative work, which involves the viewer in the theatrical course. Through a deeper study of the “zeitgeist”, I have also concluded that the collective and political symbols from the 1970s in the work, have lost power and content at the time of the dismantling in 1982. The character that I previously perceived as "Art as weapon" has in this essay been transformed to "Art as visuality". The art of photography appears as the real subject matter for the photomontage at Karlaplan subwaystation.
