بودريار البعد المرئي واللامرئي في العمارة

Abstract EN

The architectural endeavor is a metaphysical implication of the human effort to attain some kind of meaning.

It is a historical document and testimony of the era to which it belongs.

The widespread temples synagogues and mosques that have existed for many years are documents that serve as evidence with their majesty and greatness of man's need for metaphysics and of his tireless effort to achieve some kind of meaning.

Therefore Baudrillard deals with the architectural effort as a great indication of the social philosophical and anthropological aspects of the society to which he belongs; he also sees contemporary architectural efforts as expressing or translating lack of values the culture of artificiality, the absence of meanings and the prevalence of the phenomenon of reproduction against the absence the original.

We no longer differentiate between copies and the original what is there is a copy of a copy of a copy so he calls for uniqueness for an architectural effort that is capable of making itself invisible and visible at the same times an architectural effort that is capable of creating space possibility uniqueness and meaning in his attempt to pave possible ways for an architecture that will lead to being and is capable of astonishing and wholly engage us through disappearance and manifestation.
