That book I really like (unlike the one on radical museology). Four essays on the contemporary art trends and practice - research based installation, performance exhibitions, interventions and invocation of modernist architecture. How do we look and perceive art today through the screens and permanent information noise? What has come instead of attentive and slow looking? What is the problem of contemporary spectatorship?

🏛️ The Jewish Museum in Berlin: A Journey Through History and Emotion 📚 The Jewish Museum in Berlin, designed by architect Daniel Libeskind, is not just a museum—it’s an emotional experience. The architecture itself is meant to evoke feelings of disorientation and anxiety, reflecting the tumultuous history of the Jewish people in Germany. Architectural Highlights: Zigzag Design 🌀: The building’s zigzag shape, often described as a 'disjointed Star of David,' creates an unsettling pathway through the museum. Void Spaces 🕳️: Empty, unheated voids run through the building, representing the absence and loss experienced during the Holocaust. Garden of Exile 🌳: Tilted columns and uneven ground in the garden create a sense of instability, mirroring the dislocation of Jews during exile. Visiting the Jewish Museum in Berlin is more than an architectural tour—it's a powerful journey through history, designed to make you feel the weight of the past. Check out our latest article for an in-depth look at this architectural masterpiece. Read More https://lnkd.in/e_KRJZnV 🔍 Have you visited the Jewish Museum in Berlin?

Check out the ideas that emerged from our roundtable 'Public Art: Not Just a Nice To Have' below and read the summary at https://lnkd.in/erAY8dn7 👇
"Public art is a way of bringing people along the journey” This month UP Projects and Sheppard Robson Architects hosted a roundtable event that explored the positive role that art and artists can play in shaping places, including engaging communities and contributing social value. The roundtable challenged the idea that public art is just a “nice to have”; frequently being commissioned as an afterthought or because it has been stipulated as a planning condition. You can now read a summary of the conversation that brought professionals from across public art, architecture, private development and local authority sectors together to discuss what changes are required to foreground the value of public art. 🔑 Key considerations include timing, rethinking ideas of permanence and valuing process-driven approaches. 📄 Read it at: https://lnkd.in/eVcQvaqH Jo Baxendale Clarissa Bromelle FRSA Zerritha Brown FRSA Dan Burr Synthia Griffin Dann Jessen Moira Lascelles Adriana Marques Kevin McGeough Philippine Nguyen Olaide Oboh Jessica Reynolds Anna Shapiro Ian Taylor Emma Underhill Debbie Whitfield Emma Wilcox #publicart

Our latest book, “How can we live together?,” is now out – see link below for more info and to purchase the book. This publication documents the GHETTO exhibition, which was displayed at the Museum of Vancouver between August 23, 2023 and January 1, 2024. GHETTO originally exhibited at the European Cultural Centre (ECC) 2021 Venice Architecture Biennale and Art Gallery of Ontario (2022) before travelling to Vancouver. For the MOV exhibit, GHETTO proposed a theoretical rezoning project in Vancouver’s False Creek and sought to encourage meaningful dialogue on our collective responsibility to care for one another through the creation of inclusive cities. “How can we live together?” highlights the public input on a housing survey, which was gathered from over 15,000 visitors during the Vancouver exhibition. More info: https://lnkd.in/gWZ-X5bC Purchase: https://lnkd.in/gXBTubGW “‘The exhibit was meant to articulate to the world the potential of our CAC process and to transform it from condos into other things,’ says Henriquez. ‘But also, it was meant to generate talk about larger global issues of people in need around the world as well. And so that’s what the survey was trying to measure… to what extent are people self-interested, and to what extent are they altruistic in terms of their aspirations to help people who have less than them?’” – excerpt from essay by Kerry Gold
