    No full text
    Full text is available to authenticated members of The University of Auckland only.Henry Kulka was a pupil, friend, and collaborator of Adolf Loos (1870 – 1933} one the greatest architectural polemicist of the 20th century. Loos’ designs, innovative buildings, and zealous writings formulate an unprecedented collection of ideas in modernity whose impact is still being felt in contemporary design, music, literature and architecture and whose intellectual and artistic depth still challenge its best students. The architect Henry Kulka was not the public polemicist that his mentor and partner Loos was. However he was the most important of Loosian teachers. His representations of Loos’ ideas are often presented in a way that is clearer than Loos ‘himself’ It was Loos himself who championed Kulka as the guardian of his ideas. These ideas and those evolved by Kulka are reflected in Kulka’s writings and also in his realisations. Kulka was prolific in his building in Europe and the Pacific. A diverse and quite extraordinary body of work has been left by him. This study aims to begin the task of considering the relationship between some of these ideas and their expression in time and place in New Zealand. Two residential case studies have been chosen for analysis. This author has based himself in these structures so that their experience could be understood and considered in relation to text. The authenticity and originality with which Kulka was able to evolve and compose beautiful, modern and original interiors in the Pacific proves striking. His subtle spatial plays, uniquely balanced proportions and naturalist material palette represent the truths inherent in the Kulka approach and its timeless appropriateness to place

    Perspectives of an Art Institution

    This master thesis "Perspectives of an Art Institution" focuses on the George Dickie's institutional theory of art (thereafter IT). This theory defines "work of art" as a result of the position of an artefact in the institutional framework of the artworld. The author of the thesis pays attention to the historical development of the IT- firstly published in 1969 in the article "Defining Art" and radically revisited in the book The Art Circle in 1984- as well as to the critical discussion based on Dickie's theory. In the first chapter she compares both the earlier and the later version of the theory; in following chapters she concerns with objections formulated against Dickie's IT. IT seems to be problematic in several aspects: the term "institution" is considered to be ambiguous; Dickie fails to give a full description of roles and rules which determine the operations of the artworld; the notion of appreciation seems to be contradictory with Dickie's opinions presented earlier; circularity; and Dickie's unsatisfactory attention to the historical dimension of the artworld. All of these objections are compared with Dickie's theory to prove their legitimacy or to refuse them as illegitimate. Not only aims the thesis to sum up the critical discussion but it aims to answer the question if the theory..
