This study investigates the church designs for Tainan Jing Liao and Xue Jia villages by Gottfried Böhm from the aspects of German art history, cultural and religious history. While the designs of these two churches are classified as the type of 'a town within a town' attributed to Böhm's works, many architectural expressions and design concept, e.g. the Christocentrism, were originated from his father Dominikus Böhm. Dominikus Böhm was a leading church architect who was deeply affected by the contemporary liturgical movements. Through ways of baldachin-like structure, glass wall and ambulatory, the church designs of the Böhms convey delicately the essential significance of the Eucharist, baptism and the image of the Body of Christ consisting of the whole congregation. The church designs for Jing Liao and Xue Jia in Taiwan demonstrate not only how the young Böhm transformed the legacy which he received from his father with his personal artistic expressions, but also reflect the development of the contemporary German modern church architecture, the influence of liturgical movements, and finally the new tendency of church architecture after the second Vatican Council. |
