Obecne zubożenie stanu architektury z produktu będącego sedymentacją wiedzy do produktu wyni- kającego z afirmacji społeczeństwa o stylu życia naznaczonym coraz szybszą konsumpcją każdego wymyślonego przedmiotu to dominująca postawa: gust i współczesna moda, według których wszystko sprowadza się do kultury rozrywki z konsekwentną utratą poczucia rzeczywistości i sprowadzeniem jej do fetyszu, pozoru i obrazu. Pomocnikiem tej postawy redukowania architektury do zwykłej komer- cyjnej produkcji jest specjalistyczny i niespecjalistyczny system informacji branżowej, który za sprawą kultury ekspozycyjnej zastąpił niezbędny na ogół krytyczny dystans w analizie bieżącej produkcji swoistym kulturowym konsumpcjonizmem. Według Frederica Jamesona konsekwencją tej postawy, która jest formalną cechą ponowoczesności, jest brak głębi. To wyrażanie przypadków o pospiesznym charakterze, gdzie obraz powtarza się, tracąc swoje ostateczne odniesienie w unieważnieniu pojęcia historii. Wszystko jest przeżywane zgodnie z estetyczną wizją zdarzeń, konsumowane bez wyrażania zrównoważonego osądu i, podobnie jak w technice kolażu, przy użyciu różnorodnych cytatów.

The current impoverishment of the state of architecture from a product, as a sedimentation of knowledge, to a product – due to the affirmation of a society with a lifestyle marked by the increasingly rapid consumption of every conceived object – is the dominant attitude: taste and contemporary fashion, whereby everything is reduced to entertainment culture with the consequent loss of sense of reality and with the rendering of this to a fetish, simulacrum, image. Accomplice of this attitude of reducing architecture to mere commercial production is the specialized and non-specialized sector information system, which, by virtue of the culture of exhibition, has generally replaced the necessary critical distance in the analysis of current production with a sort of cultural consumerism.

Abstract

The current impoverishment of the state of architecture from a product, as a sedimentation of knowledge, to a product – due to the affirmation of a society with a lifestyle marked by the increasingly rapid consumption of every conceived object – is the dominant attitude: taste and contemporary fashion, whereby everything is reduced to entertainment culture with the consequent loss of sense of reality and with the rendering of this to a fetish, simulacrum, image. Accomplice of this attitude of reducing architecture to mere commercial production is the specialized and non-specialized sector information system, which, by virtue of the culture of exhibition, has generally replaced the necessary critical distance in the analysis of current production with a sort of cultural consumerism. According to Frederic Jameson (Postmodernism, or, the Cultural Logic of Late Capitalism, 1984), consequence of this attitude, which is a formal characteristic of the postmodern, is the lack of depth, it is the expression of instances with a hasty character where the image repeats itself losing its ultimate referent in an annulment of the notion of history. Everything is lived according to an aesthetic vision of events, consumed without expression of equidistant judgment and, according to the collage technique, with heterogeneous citations.
