    In the 1950s and 1960s, most African countries gained independence from their respective colonial power. Architecture became one of the principal means by which the newly formed countries expressed their national identity. Parliament buildings, central banks, stadiums, convention centers, universities and independence memorials were built, often to heroic and daring designs. At the same time, these buildings exemplify also the difficulties, contradictions and dilemmas these countries experienced in their nation-building process.0This groundbreaking new book investigates for the first time the relationship between architecture and nation building in Ghana, Senegal, Kenya, Côte d’Ivoire, and Zambia. It features around eighty buildings with brief descriptive texts, images, site plans and selected floor plans and sections. The vast majority of images, commissioned especially for this book, is contributed by Iwan Baan and Alexia Webster. Their photographs document the buildings in their present state. Each country is portrayed in an introductory text and a timeline of historic events. Further essays on post-colonial Africa and specific aspects and topics, also illustrated with images and documents, round out this outstanding book

    Die erste Ausgabe von "African Modernism: The Architecture of Independence" erschien 2015 und wurde mit grossem internationalem Lob bedacht. Seit 2018 ist sie vergriffen und seitdem stark nachgefragt. Anlässlich des 10-jährigen Jubiläums von Park Books erscheint nun eine Neuausgabe dieses wegweisenden Buches.In den 1950er- und 1960er-Jahren erlangten die meisten afrikanischen Länder die Unabhängigkeit von ihrer jeweiligen Kolonialmacht. Die Architektur wurde zu einem der wichtigsten Mittel, mit dem die neu entstandenen Länder ihre nationale Identität zum Ausdruck brachten. "African Modernism" untersucht die enge Beziehung zwischen Architektur und Nationenbildung in Ghana, Senegal, Côte d'Ivoire, Kenia und Sambia. Es werden 103 Gebäude mit kurzen beschreibenden Texten, Bildern, Lageplänen und ausgewählten Grundrissen und Schnitten vorgestellt. Die überwiegende Mehrheit der Bilder wurde von Iwan Baan und Alexia Webster für die erste Ausgabe des Buchs 2015 neu aufgenommen. Jedes Land wird in einem einleitenden Text und einer Zeitleiste der historischen Ereignisse vorgestellt. Weitere Aufsätze zum postkolonialen Afrika und zu spezifischen Aspekten und Themen, ebenfalls mit Bildern und Dokumenten illustriert, runden diesen herausragenden Band ab.Mit Beiträgen von Zvi Efrat, Till Förster, François de Font-Réaulx, Manuel Herz, Hannah le Roux, Leo Noyer-Duplaix und Ingrid Schröder
