Early life and formal education

[edit]

Raimund Johann Abraham was born in 1933 inLienz,East Tyrol,Austria.[4]Throughout a 40-year career, Abraham created visionary projects and built works of architecture in Europe and in the United States.[5]From 1952 to 1958, Abraham studied at theGraz University of Technology.In 1959, he established a studio inVienna,where he explored the depths and boundaries of architecture through building, drawing, and montage.[6]Abraham's first book, the 1965 publication "Elementare Architektur" was made at a time of transition between architecture studies and practice.[7]In this early volume on elemental structures, Abraham explores the built environment, absent aesthetic speculation, and determinations about design instead coming from the relative level of knowledge and also the desires of the builder. In 1964, Abraham emigrated to the United States.

Architecture career

[edit]

Abraham was an influential architect in his native Austria and the New York avant-garde. Abraham's poetic architectural vision was influenced by the Viennese tradition to alignarchitecturewithsculpture,and also by theAustrianphysicistandphilosopherErnst Mach.Abraham theorized architecture on acollisioncourse with the needs of humans, yet striving for coexistence, in a constant state of creative tension.[8]Beginning in the late 1950s, his Enigma tic architecture placed Abraham among the avant-garde, such asHans Hollein,Walter PichlerandGünther Domenig.In 1958, Abraham collaborated withFriedrich St. Florian,placing third in an international competition to design the Pan Arabian University of Saudi Arabia, and in 1959, placing second, for the design of theDemocratic Republic of the CongoCultural Center inLéopoldville.[9]Abraham criticized mainstream architecture's preoccupation with style, its indifference to history, and the rigid definition ofModernismat that time.[10]Abraham went on to influence generations of professional architects through architectural drawings, projects, and teaching.

A self-describedincurable formalist,Abraham's notable built architecture includesHouse Dellacher(1963–67), in theOberwart Districtof Burgenland, Austria,Public Housing Complex,(1968–69), andExperimental Kindergarten(1969-70) inProvidence,Rhode Island.In 1973, Abraham was awarded the commission forRainbow PlazainNiagara Falls,New York, which he co-designed with Giuliano Fiorenzoli. The same year, Abraham was asked to transform the New Essex Market Courthouse building, located at 32 Second Avenue,New York City,for reuse as theAnthology Film Archives(1980–89), with collaborator-architects Kevin Bone and Joseph Levin.[11]The portfolioUntitledmarked the occasion.[12]

In the mid-1980s, Abraham won the architecture competition to build a mixed-use residential and commercial complex, IBABERLIN, in Friedrichstraße32-33 (1985–88), a major street in centralBerlin,which forms the core of theFriedrichstadtneighborhood. The area was originally constructed to extend the city center, during the first half of the 18th century, in theBaroquestyle, and after significant damage duringWorld War II,and then partly rebuilt before the division of theBerlin Wall.Abraham explained the work as a tribute to"a city of memories, hope and despair. A City mutilated and fragmented by war, offended through reconstruction and isolated by political manipulations. Historical fragments remain, monuments of the past, elements for a new architectural beginning. New elements are suggested. First independent, then connected to form a dialectical topography of urban Architecture."[13]

Abraham contributed the design forTraviatagasse(1987-1991), inVienna,with Carl Pruscha. Other buildings designed by Abraham includeResidential/Commercial Building(1990–93), inGraz,Austria;House Bernard(1985),Hypo-BankandHypo-House(1993–96), situated in the historic center of the small town ofTyrol,inLienz,Austria.[14]In later years, Abraham designed his own home in Mazunte,Mexico.[15][16][17]

Among Abraham's many well known hypothetical projects isSeven Gates to Eden,a bold hand-drawn analysis of the suburban house, exhibited in the 1976Venice Biennale,curated byFrancesco Dal Co,and included in a 1981 show at theYale School of Architecture,entitledCollisions,curated by New York architectGeorge Ranalli.[18]Abraham'sCity Of Twofold Vision, Cannaregio West,(1978–80), is sited in Cannaregio, the northernmost of the six historic districts of the historic city ofVenice,Italy.[19][20]Abraham also designed theLes Halles Redevelopmentproject (1980) forParis,France,andInterior(2001), and his design forThe New Acropolis Museum(2002) inAthens,Greecearticulates new ideas about the contextualization of monuments.[21][22]In 2002, Abraham contributed a poetic artistic response to New York's World Trade Center attack on September 11, 2001. Abraham's proposal is a poignant symbol to regain footing while envisioning a new future architecture for the City of New York.

Perhaps Abraham's best known work of architecture is theAustrian Cultural Forum New York(1993-02), at 11 East 52nd Street; a building ingeniously arranged onto a site only 25 feet wide.[23][24]Architectural historianKenneth Framptonhas recognized the Austrian Cultural Forum as "the most significant modern piece of architecture to be realized in Manhattan since theSeagram BuildingandGuggenheim Museumin 1959. "[25][26]Another notable project,MusikerhausorHouse for Musicians(1999), in Hombroich, near toDüsseldorf,Germany.The built atop a formerNATOmissile base. Abraham adapted the site for reuse as an artists' residence and exhibition gallery. Abraham'sMusikerhauswas completed posthumously, under the supervision of Abraham's daughter Una, in 2013.[27][28]In 2015, The German Architecture Museum (DAM) identified Abraham'sMusikerhausas a significant new building constructed in Germany.[29]

Abraham was awarded aStone Lion(1985), at the 3rd International Architecture Exhibition for "Progetto Venezia," an international competition sponsored by theVenice Biennale,under the directorship ofAldo Rossi.[30]He also earned theGrand Prize of Architecture(1995), andGold Medal of Honor(2005) formeritorious service to the Province ofVienna.[31]

In 2011, Abraham was part of the ensemble cast in the film"Sleepless nights stories,"which includedMarina Abramović,Thomas Boujut,Louise Bourgeois,Simon Bryant, Phong Bui, Pip Chodorov, Louis Garrel,Björk Gudmundsdottir,Flo Jacobs, Ken Jacobs, Harmony Korine, Lefty Korine, Rachel Korine-Simon, Kris Kucinskas, Hopi Lebel, Jean-Jacques Lebel, Diane Lewis, Jonas Lozoraitis, Adolfas Mekas, Oona Mekas, Sebastian Mekas, DoDo Jin Ming, Dalius Naujokaitis,Benn Northover,Hans Ulrich Obrist,Yoko Ono,Nathalie Provosty, Carolee Schneeman,Patti Smith,and Lee Stringer.[32]The March 22, 2015 premiere ofScenes from the Life of Raimund Abraham(2013), by film diarist Jonas Mekas, is acinéma véritéstyle documentary of the lift of Raimund Abraham which carries its subject, the visionary architect, into the future.[33][34]

Drawing architecture

[edit]

Abraham's article entitled ''The Meaning of Place in Art and Architecture ", published in 1983 refutes the opposition of Art and Architecture.[35]Abraham is known for creating visionary architectural hand-drawings dominated by the elemental and archaic described in a few basic shapes.[36][37][38]Throughout his career, Abraham asserted the autonomous, fundamental value of a drawing as a manifestation of architecture,[39]stating, "The drawing is one of the tools we have available for the realization of an architectural idea." To Abraham, drawing was as much the work of the architect as building. Critics describe Abraham's drawings asarchitectural poetry on paper.[40]Many of his visionary drawings are exhibited and collected as fine art.[41]

During the 1960s and 70s, Abraham's interest in the typology of the house inspired masterful, visually compelling, imaginative architectural drawings, accompanied by evocative titles and texts, such asGlacier City, from the Linear City Series Project, Sectional perspective(1964) - an invisible city, between walls, on either side of a wide valley;[42]Universal City, project, Sectional perspective (1966);[43]Earth-Cloud House, project(1970);[44]andThe House with Curtains Project, Perspective(1972), about which Abraham notes, in the accompanying poem entitled "Elements of the House," the opposing sensations and feelings, natural elements and cycles, and spatial components characterizing his subject,The House without Rooms, project, elevation and plan(1974).[45][46]Abraham's drawn architecture explores human dwellings, the ritual of habitation, and the subjectivity of spatial conditions, especially interiority.[47][48]Abraham's shadowy visions, such asRadar Cities,Terza Mostra d' Architettura,(1985);Jewish Museum Project, Judenplatz, Vienna, Austria Project,Exterior perspective(1997);[49]andMetropolitan Core(2010) propose thoughtful architectural prototypes. The work is a prescient meditation on architectural scale, not only its relationship to the scale of the human body, but also the impact of scale upon multi-sensory perception and imagination.[50]

Abraham explained the inspiration forNine Projects for Venice(1979–80):"the absence of the mechanical scale of land-bound transportation, Venice, as no other City, has been able to retain a physiological morphology which has consistently reversed all known spatial principles of Cartesian origins."[51]Abraham populates the city of Venice with architectural inventions, such asWall of Lost Journeys,House For Boats,Square of Solitude,andTower of Wisdom.Abraham's drawn architecture is symbolic of the mythology for collisions and the potential of architectural expression.[52][53]In the collection Reynolda House Museum of American Art, Abraham's Untitled (1982) drawing of a geometric structure set in a hilly landscape; along the edge is composed (from top to bottom) of an isometric view, a side elevation, and cross-section.[54]

Architecture education

[edit]

Abraham explained his role as an educator as follows:"Teaching forces me to engage in a critical dialogue with somebody else, and find a level of objectivity that allows me to have a fair critical argument. My role as a teacher is simply to clarify, although that's a bit simplistic. When I give a problem to the students, it's my problem; I am trying to anticipate how I could solve that problem. And my joy is when the students come up with a solution I haven't thought of."[55]

After arriving in the United States in the mid-1960s, Abraham taught atRhode Island School of Design,inProvidence,Rhode Island,and then for 31-years, he was a professor of architecture at theCooper Union School of Art and Architecture,New York, N.Y., and adjunct faculty member atPratt Institute,Brooklyn,New York. Abraham was also variously a visiting professor in architecture design at the Open Atelier of Design and Architecture (OADA) inNew York City;Hines College of Architectureat theUniversity of Houston,Texas;Yale School of Architectureand Environmental Studies;Harvard Graduate School of Design;Architectural Association School of Architecture,London;Southern California Institute of Architecture(SCI-Arc),Los Angeles, California;Technical Universities,Graz;and University of Strasbourg.[56][57][58][59][60][61][62]
