르 꼬르뷔제의 ‘성장하는 미술관’개념의 전시공간디자인 특성 연구

Abstract

Le Corbusier (1887-1965) is know as a great architect ranking with such master architects as Frank Lioyd Wright and Mies van der Rohe who produced great architectural achievements in an era from the dawning to the maturity of the modern architecture. His works are marked for their peculiarity in expressing his architectural concept as perceived through his artistic sensibility. He has brought the form of his architecture to perfect through the influence of Purism. His architectural concept has instigated him to construct the relations between structure, form and the notion of space through the 'Dom-ino' structural system and the 'Five Principles of the Modern Architecture.' As a result, e has become such an architect as has ripened his works by adopting the "Modulor" for human measurement. During the decade from 1929 to 1939, he made public the 'Museum of Unlimited Growth' programs in an attempt to give a concrete form to his concept of "unlimited space" spreading to all directions, which was actually visualized by the constructions of three art museums, located Ahmedabad and Chandigarh in India and Tokyo in Japan. Although a number of researches have so far been publicized on the works and the architectural ideas of le Corbusier, no systematic research has yet been released on the idea of 'Museum of Unlimited Growth' as a matter of fact. Therefore, this study has set its purpose to grasp the peculiarities of his exhibition space design through an analysis on the characteristics of the 'Museum of Unlimited Growth' so designed as to reflect the concept of a space, which is centrifugally growing. With this purpose in mind, this research is also to suggest how the design of the 'Museum of Unlimited Growth' would influence the modern museum exhibit space. The contents of this study comprise the consideration on the early ideas of le Corbusier, the typical features of the growing museum and the analysis as well as the integration of his works.
