Modernism Vs. Expressionism
Modernism has no doubt to become a great era of design I the
world. We have been seeing modern architectures, modern art and others ways of
modern for a long time. Modernism has become well known as a “international
style” through the work of many famous architects like Le Corbusier, Mies Van
Der Rohe and Walter Gropius. Simplicity is one word that connects their works
together. Relating to modernism the form fallow function.
Expressionism is different from modernism, which is simple
and dull in terms of designing. Expressionism tends to give more feeling to the
building itself and it expresses feeling out in terms of form.
The TWA Terminal at JFK international airport, New York by
Eero Saanrinen, 1962. The building uses cure roofs with glass facades in a
shape like a bird flying, representing the feeling of flying because it’s an airport.
By that shape the architect is trying to express the word flying in an abstract
way.
