Video: Peter Zumthor and Louise Bourgeois Steilneset Witch Trial Memorial | ArchDoc

0

Shown under construction last month, the project is a memorial for the 91 victims of the 17th-century witch trials in Vardo, Norway. Illuminated windows, 91 in total dedicated to each victim, are incorporated within Zumthor’s information centre design which measures over 400′ long with a connective thread of tautly stretched silk sheets.Peter Zumthor in an interview with ArtInfo described his unique collaboration with artist Louise Bourgeois remarking, “I had my idea, I sent it to her, she liked it, and she came up with her idea, reacted to my idea, then I offered to abandon my idea and to do only hers, and she said, ‘No, please stay.’ So, the result is really about two things — there is a line, which is mine, and a dot, which is hers… Louise’s installation is more about the burning and the aggression, and my installation is more about the life and the emotions [of the victims].”Video: Architectural Record and McGraw-Hill Construction

Atelier Raum Architects shared this video of one of their recent projects, an installation for a contemporary art exhibition in France. Accompanied by original music from the french band Mansfield Tya, La Ville Molle was co-produced by the Ecole Nationale Superieure d’Art de Bourges, the FRAC Centre and implemented with the collaboration of the city of Bourges and the Council district downtown.  Follow the break for drawings, photographs, and a video showing the installation of the exhibition.section La Ville Molle is a art piece created during the Raum’s residency at The Box gallery, in the Bourges’ National Higher School of Art. It questions the harshness of the city, the ground’s capacity to change, to bring a singular use and create situations. The piece is an implant, slipped beneath the ground, which processes and modifies our relation to this, our relationship with the city.Architects: Atelier Raum Architects Location: Biennale d’art contemporain de Bourges, France Collaborators: Students of the Bourges’ National Higher School of Art (Elise Benetreau-Dupin, Jennifer Bretcheteau, Maud-Aline Carpier, Justine Dardoise, Pauline Gaudry, Aude Coutarel, Ziqi Wei, Micka‘l Dos Santos, Malika Ouedraogo, Sunyoung Choi, Lionel Krüm et Alexandre Kongasio) Production: FRAC Centre, La Box & Ecole nationale supérieure d’art de Bourges Project Year: 2010 Photographs and Video: Atelier Raum Architects Music: Carla Pallone (Mansfield Tya)#gallery-2 {margin: auto;}#gallery-2 .gallery-item {float: left;margin-top: 10px;text-align: center;width: 33%;}#gallery-2 img {border: 2px solid #cfcfcf;}#gallery-2 .gallery-caption {margin-left: 0;}
