Martin Jančok: Beyond Ordinary Monuments

The project "Reflections on Architecture" is being realized as part of the course Current Trends in Architecture. Its goal is to enrich and deepen architectural discussion within the environment of the Faculty of Architecture STU and to place it in broader social, historical, and geographical contexts. The course will explore current trends in architecture through selected personalities. Selected architects will present their authorial approach, clarify the premises of their work, justify formal preferences, and cite patterns and inspirations from their creation. In addition to discussions, which are a standard part of every presentation, the course introduces a format of short critical texts. Through these, students will respond to the presented author and their work. The architect will thus receive immediate feedback on their work, and students will have the opportunity to cultivate their opinions on architecture as well as their skills in professional writing. Presentations by architects and short texts will be published at the end of the project. Activities within the project are primarily aimed at second-degree listeners of the field of Architecture and Urbanism, but they are also freely accessible to the public.
