| Description: | Regionalism is a concept that has different meanings in different disciplines. In geography, it refers to a geographic territory that shows specific identifiable characteristics. In politics, regionalism is an ideology which focuses on using this unique geography to advance specific political goals like autonomy or separatism. In art, regionalism has been a realist modern movement that flourished in America during the 1930s, shunning urban life and focusing on rural heartland practices and imaginaries. In architecture, regionalism has been an approach that attempted to understand buildings using the contextual forces that surround their production. |
