Reflection on an architecture of memory and on the analogy between the Jerusalem cemetery and the Berlin Memorial. Eisenman, in figuratively and compositionally citing the Jerusalem Cemetery in his Berlin Monument, activates an analogy by drawing on a much more difficult meaning than mere commemoration. In fact, between the folds of memory the idea of judgment re-emerges: the final judgment of the Scriptures, but also the new and harsher judgment on the Modern Age. To say that if God returns to judge on the last day, he will have to sit in Berlin, in the stele field of the victims of the Shoa.

Abstract

Reflection on an architecture of memory and on the analogy between the Jerusalem cemetery and the Berlin Memorial. Eisenman, in figuratively and compositionally citing the Jerusalem Cemetery in his Berlin Monument, activates an analogy by drawing on a much more difficult meaning than mere commemoration. In fact, between the folds of memory the idea of judgment re-emerges: the final judgment of the Scriptures, but also the new and harsher judgment on the Modern Age. To say that if God returns to judge on the last day, he will have to sit in Berlin, in the stele field of the victims of the Shoa.
