1 Content: Piet Mondrian and De Stijl Movement SECOND PART Ex. 14 a. Look carefully at images A, B and C, then choose which one is built using neoplastic principles and try to explain why. Before answering, read some of the neoplastic architecture points, according to Theo van Doesburg who wrote Towards Plastic Architecture, Paris (individual work and then in pairs) A B C A. Batlo House B. Schröder House C. Ville Savoye The new architecture is anti- cubic, which specifies that it does not attempt to combine all functional space- cells into one closed cube, but projects the functional space- cells (as well as extending planes, the volumes of balconies forwards) giving a completely new plastic expression in open space; It is an economic and functional architecture; It is not monumental, non- ornate, the form is open to the exterior through horizontal windows and balconies; The new architecture has suppressed monotonous symmetry as well as the rigid equality which results from division into two halves or the use of the mirror image; In contrast to frontalism, which was born out of a rigid, static concept of life, the new architecture offers the plastic richness of an all- sided development in space- time. Ex. 14 b. Write a brief explanation

2 15 a. Now look at the houses depicted below (A- B- C) and try to explain which one of these can be linked to the artworks shown below (images 1 and 2) and say why. (individual work and then in pairs) A B C 1 2 P. Mondrian, Tableau I, 1921 T.Van Doesburg and C. van Eesteren, Study for a house, 1923 Ex. 15 b. Write a brief explanation

Then do the exercise n.16.b (individual work and then in pairs) 1 Which aspects i) the roof like? 2 What construction iii) introduce important innovations? materials 3 Who was can be associated to the colours of the house? 4 How many iv) the architect who made the Schröder House? 5 In which floor plan did the architect 6 What is v) floors are there in the house? vi) are used for building the house? A The roof is flat and it can be used as a terrace; B Gerrit Thomas Rietveld designed this house in 1924; C The house was built using traditional construction materials, such as bricks and wood, apart from few elements, such as the foundations and the balcony base, made of reinforced concrete C There are only two floors: ground floor and upper floor D In the upper floor important innovations were introduced by the architect: sliding wooden panels to make the organization of the interior space flexible and functional. E The colours can be associated with different aspects: white and grey underline the volume of the house, black to define doors and windows frames and primary colours are used for exterior railings and interior spaces to underline the asymmetrical design and different functions of interior space. Ex. 16.b Put the above sentences in the correct order and re- write them in the following boxes

4 Innovative Learning Paths for Clil towards a plurilingual education Ex. 17.a First of all, see the two plans of the house: the ground floor (see image a) and the first or upper floor (see images b1- b2). Read the text below (the interior design) and then do exercise n.17.b. (individual work and then in pairs) a b1 b2

5 The Interior design The interior of the house is divided into two levels or floors; the private rooms are located on the upper floor and the public space is on the ground floor. On the ground floor (image a) Rietveld designed a traditional interior arrangement, with fixed walls and spaces; here there are: a kitchen, a servant's bedroom, a small storage room, a studio and a reading room. The upper level of the house is considered a private space; there are Mrs. Schröder s bedroom (smaller than the others) children s bedrooms and a living room. Actually, the second floor of the house is where Rietveld put many innovations, also thanks to Mrs. Schroder s suggestions. Here the space is divided with sliding wooden panels so that the interior space can be organized in different ways, as an open space (image b1) or as a closed and more private space (image b2), thus becoming a dynamic and changeable space. sliding wooden panels EX.17b. Look at this image below, carefully and match the numbers written in the map with the definitions. (individual work and then in pairs) LIVING ROOM MRS.

8 Art High School M.Preti- A.frangipane - Reggio Calabria Ex. 20 Watch the video and read the audio- script. Then do exercise n. 21 (individual work and then in pairs) Rietveld Schröderhuis or Rietveld Schröder House. (UNESCO/NHK) Gerrit Thomas Rietveld started his career as an architect. He was born in the city of Utrecht in the Netherlands in the late 19th century. Utrecht was a culturally lively place and a new artistic movement emerged there in the early 20th century, Neo- Plasticism. The leading advocate of this movement was the painter Piet Mondrian; he was known for his simply composed works of straight lines and three basic colours. Rietveld was inspired by Neo- Plasticism, which also referred to as the De Stijl movement. This is the Red & Blue Chair, which made him famous. He extended his creativity into architecture and built a house on the outskirts of Utrecht in Commissioned by a banker s widow, called Mrs. Schröder, it was the first building constructed completely using the concept of Neo- plasticism art. The entrance door was divided in two parts and can be opened both ways. Ordinary hardware (metallic material) was used to make this simple umbrella stand; the second floor is uniquely composed of straight lines and square shapes. It is painted in basic colours, red, blue and yellow; the floor can be freely divided by sliding doors and the room becomes a bedroom or living room; the staircase can be closed off, however, the transparent glass panels provide for the continuity of the floor and the sense of the space; the skylight can be easily opened or closed so sunlight can enter the house during the daytime in any season. The dining- room window was one of his favorite parts of the house; there is no frame between the two windows in the corner, thus the space is more open and more light can enter; the chair by the window is known as the Berlin chair, one of the Rietveld s masterpieces. It was Mrs. Schröder s favourite spot. A framed photo of Rietveld is placed in the dining - room. Mrs. Schröder lived in to her mid- nineties and died in 1985, after living in the house for 60 years. Ex. 21 Match the words in bold in the text above with their Italian definition. You can choose from those in the box below and write them beside the English words. (individual work and then in pairs) advocate widow entrance door hardware umbrella stand floor staircase skylight window favourite spot outskirts Scala - materiale metallico- porta ombrelli - lucernario- vedova- posto preferito- porta d entrata- sostenitore- periferia- piano- finestra 8
