Trine Søndergaard - Exploring empitness from within
Astrid Jensen - Beauty will always be disturbed
Forårets endelige komme.
Er endnu en god grund til at tage på LOUISIANA.
I går hørte jeg Arkitekt Kasper Guldager Jørgensen fra den danske tegnestue 3XN fortælle om “Materialets indre skønhed”, der fandt sted i Louisianas smukke koncertsal.
Kasper er endvidere direktør for GXN, der er tegnestuens forsknings - og innovationsenhed, og beriger tegnestuens projekter med anderledes - og oftest nymoderne teknologiske vinkler.
Inden, kan man passende nyde LOUISIANA restaurantens gourmet buffet og slentre lidt omkring i udstillingerne og ikke mindst stedets smukke have med udsigten over Øresund, der er en af grundene til at LOUISIANA er svær ikke at holde umådelig meget af!
Har du ikke muligheden for at besøge LOUISIANA lige nu, lige her - har museet været så geniale, at lave en LOUISIANA CHANNEL, hvor man kan svælge rundt i lækre interviews og film med alverdens kunstnere indenfor fotografi, kunst, mode, arkitektur mm.
Hermed et par af mine favoritter under billede-linksene!

The finally arrival of Spring.
Is another good reason to go to LOUISIANA.
Yesterday I heard Architect Kasper Guldager Jørgensen from the Danish studio 3XN talk about “The Inner Beauty of the Material” that took place in Louisiana’s beautiful concert hall.
Kasper is also director of GXN which is a research - and innovation unit in the office, and enriches 3XN´s projects with different - and often-art technological angles.
Before, it is requested to enjoy LOUISIANA restaurant’s gourmet buffet and take a stroll around in the exhibitions and especially in the beautiful garden with directly views to Oeresund, which is one of the reason why LOUISIANA is hard not to be very fund of!
If you don’t have the opportunity to visit LOUISIANA right now, right here - the museum has been so brilliant, making a LOUISIANA CHANNEL where you can wallow around in delicious interviews and films with all kinds of artists in photography, art, fashion, architecture among more.
A few of my favorites is put in links below images!
^ ^ MAXXI - National Museum of the 21st Century Arts in Rome.
Impressive, brutalistic and organic architecture from 2009 by the famous Iraqi-born architect Zaha Hadid.
^ ^ TERROIR installation in the exhibition out of an overall contribution of 8 installations by younger architect offices.
The exhibition is called “ENERGY - Oil & Post-Oil Architecture and Grids” - and seeks discussion of a not so simple question being:
In the future which spaces and devices will allow the individual citizen access to energy for movement and for all of their other needs?
Where will we get “fuel”? What will “fuel” be like?
Above all, the exhibition asks:
How will architecture contribute to the new scenarios, taking for granted that the range of forms and sources of energy will not remain unchanged?
^ ^ TERROIR approaches the theme with an installation consisting of four ENERGY INFRASTRUCTURES - monuments of each an energy source being geothermal, wind, solar and tidal.
^ ^ TERROIR is an Australian office - therefore our site is of course the continent of Australia.
^ ^ Geothermal Energy Infrastructure
^ ^ Wind Energy Infrastructure
^ ^ The two beautiful sculptures of kangaroo skins represent this very typical Australian animal that constantly cross the highways throughout Australia.
The skins come from four different type of kangaroos from different part of Australia representing the four different energy sources.
^ ^ Solar Energy Infrastructure
^ ^ Tidal Energy Infrastructure
Teaseren. Må have varet længe nok.
Og tid må være for. Il Gran Finale.
Som er lidt af en lækker karamel. Man kan tygge længe på.
Og hvis du synes. Det er meget anti-arkitektonisk sprog.
Så læs blot videre og få den hele, sande og arkitektoniske fortælling:
“Den australske film Mad Max viste en lovløs fremtid i en post-apokalyptisk verden.
Filmen kom ud samme år som Genova-konventionen, og giver billeder på et melankoli over en ruineret fremtid.
Mad Max tog inspiration i midten af det tyvende århundredes amerikanske roadmovie-genre; fuld af håb og hybris - og forvandlede den til en moralsk ambivalent og komisk opera af fortvivlelse.
Ligeledes vil vi gerne omdanne vejen.
Vores projekt forudser en energisk arkitektur, der ikke er en serie af ikke-forbundne tankstationer, men derimod et energi-netværk sammenfaldende med motorvejen selv.
Den vej, som er essensen i problemet bliver løsningen - en kontinuerlig organisme, der leverer sit eget næring.
Det foreslåede energi-netværk fordeler sig, så effekten opnås fra en række af bæredygtige kilder på optimale placeringer.
Disse steder vil være, hvor vind, sol, jordvarme, tidevands- og andre former for vedvarende energi kan frembringes af autonome “powerstations”.
Vi foreslår anlæg, der tilbyder bilisterne en poetisk kontakt med det pågældendes sted og teknologi, en poesi af industriel tilpasning og opfindelse udsprunget af en desperat nødvendighed.”
Nyd karamellen!

Teaser. Must have lasted long enough.
And time is now up for. Il Gran Finale.
Which is a bit of a delicious caramel. You can chew on for a long time.
And if you think. This is a very anti-architectural language.
So read on and the whole, true and architectural narrative will hereby be given:
“The Australian film Mad Max showed a lawless future in a post-apocalyptic world.
Released in the same year as the Genova Convention, the film was an elegy for a ruined future.
Mad Max took the genre of the mid-twentieth century American road movie, full of hope and hubris, and turned it into a morally ambivalent comic opera of despair.
Likewise, we would like to transform the road.
Our project envisages an Energetic Architecture that is not a series of disconneted filling stations but an energy network coextensive with the freeway itself.
The road which posed the problem becomes the solution; a continuous organism that provides its own sustenance.
The proposed network distributes power obtained from a variety of sustainable sources at optimum locations.
These locations will be where wind, solar, geothermal, tidal and other forms of renewable energy can be generated by autonomous powerstations.
We propose installations that offer motorists a poetry of site and technology, a poetry of industrial adaption and invention mothered by desperate necessity.”
Enjoy your caramel!

Forår er lig med udstilling på Charlottenborg.
Om foråret vil det eller ej.
Spring ud i foråret - og ind på Charlottenborg.

Spring is meaning exhibition at Charlottenborg Castle in Copenhagen.
Whether the Spring wants it to be or not.
Jump into the Spring - and into see the exhibition at Charlottenborg.
I store kasser.
Nu er det pakket ud. I Rom.
Og spændingen udløses lidt mere.
Over på RUM Magasinets. Blog-forum.

Now it is. Unpacked. In Rome.
Tension is released a little more.
The Danish interior- and architecture magazine RUM.
More to come here. In English as well.
Pssst!
Vil du være vidne. Til.
På 200. Ark. Med Warholske streger.
De tidlige af slagsen.
Så stik på Louisiana. I morgen.
Og lade dig indfange.
I et enkelt og minimalistisk. Univers.
Der skildrer. En karrikerende og pirrende.
Virkelighed. I 50’erne og 60’ernes.
New York.
Andy oh Andy!

Pssst!
Would you like. To be witness. To.
Of 200 Sheets.
With Warholian lines.
The early ones.
Then drop by Louisiana Art Museum (DK). Tomorrow.
And get captured.
In to a simple and minimalistic. Universe.
That portrays. A caricatured and titillating.
Reality. In the 50’s and 60’s.
New York.
Andy oh Andy!
