About Architecture Archives: Barry Bergdoll

Nieuwe Instituut is het nationale museum voor architectuur, design en digitale cultuur. Nieuwe Instituut houdt zich bezig met de grote ontwikkelingen in de maatschappij, zoals de krapte op de woningmarkt, de energietransitie, de opkomst van kunstmatige intelligentie, mobiliteit of het gebruik van de publieke ruimte. Ontwerpers, waaronder architecten en digitale makers, kunnen aan die ontwikkelingen een belangrijke bijdrage leveren. Nieuwe Instituut toont het werk van ontwerpers, brengt mensen met elkaar in contact, verzamelt, ontwikkelt en deelt kennis.

What is an architectural archive, and what could it become? Barry Bergdoll explores these questions using archival documents.

What is an architectural archive, and what could it become? Barry Bergdoll, Professor of Art History at Columbia University and former Chief Curator of Architecture at MoMA, explores these questions using items selected from the Nieuwe Instituut’s collection.At the Re-Centre, Barry Bergdoll will join Sofie De Caigny, Head of Collection at the Nieuwe Instituut, and Dirk van den Heuvel, Head of the Jaap Bakema Study Centre, for a discussion. Taking the National Collection for Dutch Architecture and Urban Planning as a starting point, they will explore what constitutes an architectural archive, how it functions, and the changes and challenges that it faces. Bergdoll has selected archival materials relating to the work of Johannes Duiker, including the Cineac cinema in Amsterdam and the Zonnestraal sanatorium in Hilversum. These materials will be on display at the Re-Centre prior to the discussion.
