Antivitruvian Aesthetics in Contemporary Architecture Projects

Abstract

The image of modern architecture, morphogenesis methods, construction technologies, ways of self-expression, interaction with people, purpose, objectives, principles are very different from the architectural representations existed before. Antivitruvian aesthetics, mainly based on the rejection of generally accepted dogmas, generally accepted order, gained a rapid development at the end of XXth century. Despite the fact that a quite long time separates us from the antivitruvian aesthetics appearance moment, antivitruvian aesthetics development question remains to be insufficiently researched. This research paper considers the antivitruvian aesthetics emergence reasons, its influence mechanism on human consciousness, its application in architecture. Research objectives include the antivitruvian aesthetics development dynamic in the modern world, its development vector determination. Research method is the comparative analysis of traditional and modern architecture from the morphogenesis and concepts creation attitude. Research result has showed that the striving of an architects to the antivitruvian aesthetics is rather the recognition of a deep civilizational crisis than the intention of individual creators.
