The contributuion of the community arts centre to capital building for socio-economic development in South AfricaHagg, Gerard 30 November 2003 (has links)
The concepts "capital building" and 'Institutionalisation" are analysed and applied to
community arts centres as instruments for socio-economic development (SED) in South
Africa. Theories of neo-classicism, Marxism, development economics and socio-economic
development show that building physical, financial, human, social and cultural capital in a
complementary configuration is crucial to sustainable socio-economic development. The
concept "capital building for SED" is formulated in this regard. New institutional economics
and critical extensions of this theory show that institutions play a key role in capital building
for SED, as they entail embeddedness, normativity, e-ntreprcneurship, partnership, structure
and complementarity. The arts sector contributes considerably to capital building for SED, in
particular arts centres in marginalized communities in the UK, USA and South Africa.
Community arts centres built political, cultural and human capital in black townships during
the South African democratic struggle (1950-92). In accordance with proposals from the arts
sector, the post-1994 South African government developed 42 arts centres. However, the
contribution of most old and new centres to socio-economic development appears to be
insignificant and few are sustainable. The causes of failure are difficult to explain due to lack
of information and theory. Through the application of a theoretical framework to the South
African arts sector and three case studies the hypothesis is tested that community arts centres
can contribute considerably to capital building for SED if they are appropriately
institutionalised, while an appropriate focus on capital building for SED results in stronger
institutions. An analysis of arts sector shows that strong institutions achieve high returns on
investments in capital building, but that few benefit the poor. The application of an analytical
matrix consisting of indicators of the above-mentioned five types of capital and six
institutional components, shows significant positive correlations between the levels of
inslitutionalisation and capital building for SED in the Community Arts Project, the
Katlehong Art Centre and ArtsforAIl. The findings result in recommendations on policy and
practice of community arts centre development in South Africa. / Development studies / D. Litt. et Phil. (Development Studies)

Faceproject.ion / Faceprojection. / F.A.CE project.ion. / Future Arts Centre.Kormer, Peter January 1993 (has links)
The basis of F.A.CE project.lon was the competition for an future Academy within the spirit of the former Bauhaus Dessau. The competition provided the opportunity to introduce my thoughts for an educational establishment in art, architecture and design. The Essence of F.A.CE project.Ion was to extend the myth of the former Bauhaus utopians. Several artists were active either together or in succession and made valueable contributions to the Bauhaus through their own work. Their names and faces are form together the multifaced image that refers silently as a memory to a former Bauhaus idea. The Identity of the Bauhaus seemed to live as much in the hidden cracks on the facades of a celebrated architecture as in the portraits of the former Bauhaus faces. Through juxtaposing the faces with the Bauhaus Idea I created an dialogue that moved toward a 'corporate identity - Mies v. d. Rohe' and found its ownF.A.CE - F.uture A.rts CE.ntre .Finally, F.A.CE project.Ion led toward a specific spirit ofplastic elements embodying facial aswell as spatial forces with an important contribution to a visual re-education. / Department of Architecture

Architecture from elemental partsPanoscha, Juergen January 1993 (has links)
A simple element that is repeated in a thoughtful, organized manner, can generate a whole that is greater than the sum of the individual elements. Conversely, a large ungainly project can be generated out of the repetition of smaller more manageable parts. This principle is explored in this thesis on a range of scales from town blocks to details. / Master of Architecture

Neighborhood Economic Impacts of Contemporary Art CentersVan Eck, Steve 19 July 2018 (has links)
Do investments in Contemporary Art Centers spur investment and economic development in the surrounding community? And if so, what factors are associated with these developments' outcomes? To assess these questions, a general overview of the dominant arts-and-economic-policy perspectives were considered, and two cases of contemporary art center developments, one in St. Louis and one in Cincinnati, were compared and treated as hypothetical value-capture investments. Sale prices of properties surrounding each investment property were adjusted to reflect market factors, then compared to values before and after an investment property opened to the public. A review of supplemental documents and interviews with the developments' directors were used to determine factors that contributed to the effects observed in the study. Findings indicated that the adjusted value of properties in Cincinnati declined with distance from the site of development in the post-test period, and not in the pre-test period. Hedonic results for properties in St. Louis were not significant. However, the museum's development was one among other factors that signified to investors that the area was ready for restoration. Interviews and document review indicated that community participation in the development planning process, distinctive architecture, and commercial contexts were associated with developments meeting their stated goals.
