The focus of the summer school was on interdisciplinary cooperation. Students and lecturers from the Potsdam University of the three building studies (Architecture and Urban planning, Civil Engineering and Conservation and Restoration) as well as from the Uzbek side from the fields of Architecture, Civil Engineering and Applied Arts devoted themselves to the building with different tasks. A key project goal was to enable students to perceive, recognize and examine a building through long-term study on the spot under professional guidance from various disciplines. They got to know different approaches to a monument together, to practice different investigation and measurement methods and to discuss and interpret the results obtained.
Focusing on a private collection of 60 postcards of modern architecture in Mumbai, New Delhi, Kolkata, Chennai and Agra, the contributors to this volume explore the many dimensions of modern architecture in India from the 1890s to the 1970s and share their own perspective on these objects. Experts on architectural history and visual studies, as well as postcard collectors provide new insights into a territory and its architectural heritage which is still largely unknown in Europe, and reflect on the postcard as a medium for historical research.
