Inspired by the local art scene and street culture of Newtown, I have developed a series of gallery and studio spaces that explore the role of ‘the wall’ in art. By designing architecture that plays an active role in the art experience I have attempted to create a gallery that encourages an active participation of both artists and the viewing public.<br />
<br />

The building is designed to provide a studio space for invited local artists to work, and series of gallery spaces where they could later exhibit. The studio is located at the back on the ground floor. The rear of the site has a back entrance, ideal for the artists to come and go as they please. This rear courtyard is a public space where street art such as graffiti, poster advertisements and murals would be encouraged. For this reason the exterior wall is made up of swiveling panels, which could be opened to ‘bring the Newtown art scene into the building’ as inspiration for the artists as they work. It is also a unique way to display street art, temporarily "borrowing" it to put it up for discussion in a formal art setting and encourage people to think of street art as more than just vandalism and litter.<br />

Whilst the artists are working on their projects the front façade of the gallery on King Street is closed off by a large hollow wall made of fiber cement cladding. All that is visible of the gallery is through the deeply set window, which if a passer by is not aware of could be mistaken for a bench or not even noticed at all. The idea is that the art making process is an inward focused venture, and the artists should not be distracted from their task. However, once complete the works can be moved downstairs or outside, and the front wall is shifted back to reveal a narrow opening. Accidental passers by and gallery seekers alike will then be able to pass through this gap and into an inner courtyard. Following on from Gordon Matta-Clark, who wanted to take art into the sewers, the patrons will descend down a set of stairs and then be guided along a large concrete wall to the gallery entrance. This transition is important as allows people a chance to catch breath from the business of King Street and prepare themselves for the art viewing. This descent is also important as it signifies a change in space and thought process. What the art patrons are about to view is not mainstream, and thus should not be on "main street". There is also something furtive and secretive about going below the cityscape, as if the challenge is to try and understand it from root level. As well, the entire entry course is to encourage the notion that art is an active discovery process, and the patrons are sharing this adventure with the artist.<br />

<div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;">Inside, the main exhibition room is made up of a series of flexible spaces; intimate alcoves formed by the pipe, and large walls for murals with double height areas for installation works. Continuing my theme of an exploration of the use of the wall in art, there are a number of wall sections that can be removed from the western wall and used to form internal partitions. These wall sections can display hung artwork, or be used as platforms to stand work on. The recesses left behind can also be used to house work or be used as seating. If it is a large show, the exhibition can extend upstairs to the studio. From here patrons can exit into the back courtyard and leave via the alleyway to Eliza Street. Importantly, they once again have transition time to think and chat about what they just saw before being absorbed once again onto the bustle of King Street.</div><br />

The residence on the first floor is located toward the rear of the site, away from the noise and lights of King Street, and receives optimal Northern sunlight. The space has two bedrooms, a spare in case the artist working late wants a place to rest and an outside private courtyard that has a good view over all areas of the site. The residence can be accessed either inside via the stairwell in the storage room or outside from King Street. Instead of pushing back the large wall when opening the building for an exhibition, a smaller section can be pushed allowing access to a hidden stairway set into the large concrete wall. This takes the owner up to the courtyard and into the residence without disturbing the working artists.<br />
<br />
This design is concerned with making art an active discovery process that both the public and artists can share. The architecture is designed to play a dynamic role in the art, supporting and adding to the experience.<br />

The issue with last week’s design was that none of the rooms suggested their intended function. So from this I have looked to design a tall gallery space with ample wall space, a smaller more intimate studio, and comfortable residence away from King Street. To do all this, I have sunk the gallery space down a floor level, tying it in with the notion of "taking art to the sewers", and allowing extra room for artists to work upstairs. The gallery space needs to be at the front as it is for the public, and the more private functions of studio and residence should be at the back with the rear lane access. The effect created is a more dynamic gallery, which better suits its function.<br />

My tutor and I also discussed the use of fibre cement cladding for thinking of ways the large façade wall could work. Crteating a hollow wall out of the lightweight fibre cement panels would be a viable option to allow the large walls to move on rails or cables.Kate I.F.http://www.blogger.com/profile/01494179578889092149noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8808937143420866757.post-50764388957114165742010-06-14T11:49:00.000-07:002010-06-14T16:19:37.487-07:00INSPIRATION<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEihIKv9Jk5fAzNzo_rjbgD3KVgXuoKsivp2ZeMJen8NQDzFIXyCCSTT1y_pETPZzy5MrYQ7Uxm9C0tJXxFXRdZex5CbkPpFlLoAsDb0WarDxrjCeMXpi_1QPDDEUsZNOQXBS9VXD_H8l4M-/s1600/Ballast-Point-Park-476x317.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="266" qu="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEihIKv9Jk5fAzNzo_rjbgD3KVgXuoKsivp2ZeMJen8NQDzFIXyCCSTT1y_pETPZzy5MrYQ7Uxm9C0tJXxFXRdZex5CbkPpFlLoAsDb0WarDxrjCeMXpi_1QPDDEUsZNOQXBS9VXD_H8l4M-/s400/Ballast-Point-Park-476x317.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div>I like this image for two reasons; the first is the way the pipes seem to sag and press upon the walls making them speak of structure and load bearing. The second is the pipes, which reminded me of urban decay and city infrastructure. Something as simple a pipe could be enough to suggest Matta-Clark’s theme of ‘taking art to the sewers’.Kate I.F.http://www.blogger.com/profile/01494179578889092149noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8808937143420866757.post-5112939798733527082010-06-14T11:48:00.001-07:002010-06-14T17:52:44.529-07:00TAKING ART TO THE SEWERSGordon Matta-Clark has an interesting quote that summarizes his artistic practice, “I want to take art out of the galleries and into the sewer”. What I take from this is that he was encouraging people to go out and explore the world to find art. His artworks were avant-garde and questioned people's perceptions of architecture and sense of place. Galleries should not follow the same traditional lines; they should be tailored to the type of art, time and place. For my designed gallery I want to take Matta-Clark’s spirit of exploration and celebrate the urban grunge of Newtown, perhaps somehow including a reference to the sewers and urban decay.<br />

I am trying to emphasize my use of walls, so this could be a good way of doing it. Perhaps by thinking of my openings as subtractions of wall I can draw greater attention to the overall wall.</div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"><br />

SBA’s Naked House has several rooms made up for four planes that can be rolled around the house to support flexible and dynamic living. Rolling rooms or walls around the gallery could provide interesting viewing spaces and this feature further explores the role of a wall as a structural element.</div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"><br />

I think the idea of encouraging a close relationship of the gallery with local artists helps my design to become part of the site, and takes the gallery’s role from just being a display space into a centre for cultural and community. It is important then to consider the artists' art making processes in the design; they will need to have easy access to studio and to have the ability to work privately and quietly. Following on from opening and shutting building elements, it makes sense that the gallery is totally shut down whilst the artist is working. Then as a symbol for the act of exhibiting, the building could be opened up revealing the work inside.</div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"><br />

Designed to change for the seasons, parts of the façade open and create outside rooms that can be inhabited in the warmer summer months. The way the house completely shuts down is interesting, and then bit by bit, the building can open to the outside world. This use of flexible walls and facades is something I would like to explore.</div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"><br />

Matta-Clark's apparoaches range from cutting an entire building in half to only cutting sections of walls out of buildings and then displaying them inside a room. Once again, I like the idea of questioning walls beyond their structural value and possible use of external walls to form internal partitions.</div><br />

These are also some interesting images that can be created by displaying walls. I also like the name of the exhibition, ‘Powerless Structures’.<br />

By employing swiveling panels Holl attempts to merge an often closed artistic community with the public by opening up the gallery onto the street. The panels actually encroach on the pedestrian walkway, thus forcing passersby to engage with the gallery. I find the use of walls as a mechanism for activating public engagement with, and into, the art world to be very interesting, and this concept shows that walls do not have to be structural elements alone.</div><br />

In thinking further about bringing street art and high art together, I have developed the idea of the ‘borrowing wall’, in which the exterior face of the gallery wall is allowed to be graffitied before swiveling sections of the wall inside, thus temporarily bringing the outside street art inside within an established art domain. I do not think street art should ever remain indoors, but this technique of "borrowing walls" attempts to deal with it.<br />

He argued that the experience of buildings has two readings: that of thin and thick. A 'thin' experience is where an architect has no detailed background knowledge of the history, society and culture that informs the ideas for a design, only what he call "surface information" that is basic data about the site. In contrast , a 'thick' understanding is evident when both architect and audience share the same background and have a common experience they can both relate to and where this shared knowledge is made relevant in the design. In terms of my design, I know the Newtown area fairly well having lived in Sydney all my life. This it is important to be aware that background knowledge is informing my design and the aim is to achieve a design which informs and people who read the building with thick and thin knowledge.Kate I.F.http://www.blogger.com/profile/01494179578889092149noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8808937143420866757.post-78814818748136677312010-06-14T11:38:00.001-07:002010-06-14T18:13:42.131-07:00PUBLIC ART<div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;">From thinking about the wall in art, I am inspired by the public murals and street art in and around Newtown. If I wanted to design a gallery reminiscent of an alleyway where graffiti could take place. Site 1 would be good as it is long and narrow. However, Site 3 already has an alleyway as a back entrance which could provide and interesting way to enter and exit the gallery.</div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"><br />

In galleries which display ‘high art’, the walls are often simply used as vessels, where they hold art for a period of time before being replaced with another work or where walls are usd to define discrete areas or rooms (and thus guide and direct the experience of art patrons). In ‘low art’, the wall often becomes part of the art, for example, graffiti is layered over each other continuously onto the same wall. In this way the wall becomes a crucial component of the art experience, and is an ephermeral record . It would be interesting to explore the role of the wall in the display of art, and perhaps develop a number of ways that a wall can merge high art and low art.<br />
<br />
Thus, my current narrative is: <strong>A meeting point for discussion of high art and low art.</strong></div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"><br />

They all varied in style, depending upon the location and type of art intended to be displayed. What I did find interesting was the often subdued nature of the architecture, which only passively supports the artworks. It occurs to me that if a gallery has a specific theme it would be exciting if the architecture could take a more active role in providing an exhibition space that enhances the artistic experience. Below are some images of Steven Holl's museums. I particularly like his use of large expanses of white walls and lighting.</div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"><br />

There is easy access into the Sydney central business district for workers, and as the suburb is adjacent to a large metropolitan university there is a large residential academic community (students and staff). It is a cultural centre for alternative music, fashion, food and art. A number of large murals are located in the area, often based on a particular political viewpoint and conveying a political message.</div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"><br />

Based on the narrative and parti, there are three elements, his space, her space and the void. Both people are attempting to focus their attention away from each other and engage in their own pursuits. This ignorance of one another has had a destructive effect on their relationship, producing the void, an echo of a chimney. The void is an empty space which separates the two people physically; however, it is also the connection of the senses hearing, smell, taste and touch.</div><br />
Her space is studio focused towards the East, towards the Museum of Modern Art, her artistic inspiration. She has a “mural wall” which she layers in paint and allows her to express herself. The surface is lit from above by a heavenly window diffusing soft Northern light down the wall. This space is bright and airy, optimistic over her newly found artistic opportunities.<br />
<br />
His space in contrast is directed South at the Financial District and Wall Street. The downward pointed window only lets in artificial street light and the final glow of the setting sun in the West by the alcove. Low ceilings and slit windows increase a feeling of oppression. There is a single desk to work at and cramped seat set into the alcove, but other than that the room is a dark, bare, lonely room.<br />
<br />
There is a dumbwaiter which connects the rooms by the void, which could allow communication if they wish. I have done this to suggest the possibility the relationship could improve in the future. We know the Great Depression ends, and perhaps they will reunite.Kate I.F.http://www.blogger.com/profile/01494179578889092149noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8808937143420866757.post-20687772269400330172010-05-09T18:38:00.002-07:002010-05-09T19:29:53.476-07:00FINAL NARRATIVE<em>The void is the only common thread of their relationship.</em><br />

<br />
From the Renaissance times the human senses, vision, hearing, smell, taste and touch were ordered into a hierarchical system.<br />
<br />
Vision was seen as the primary sense, and the one we rely most upon. It is an individualised sense and often the one we redirect first when we focus our attention upon something. In <em>A Room in New York</em> both people have directed their eyes away from each other and onto their chosen activity. With my designed spaces it is important that they do not see each other.<br />
<br />
Hearing, however, is different as it connects individuals in a shared experience. It is also possible to read a space by hearing how sounds echo around it. “We stroke the edges of space with our ears”. In my design I could use the echo produced by the void to transmit sounds of the other person to the rooms, so that even though they cannot physically see each other, they are still aware of their presence.<br />
<br />
“A particular smell may make us secretly re-entre a space that has been completely erased from the retinal memory.” I could use the sense of smell and taste, perhaps the burnt odour from the chimney, to constantly remind the couple of the void and what once was. It is also possible scents such as the woman’s perfume could drift down to the man, another way they are connected beyond the primary sense.<br />
<br />
Lastly, touch and skin sensations such as temperature can affected the emotion of a space. Warmth is often attributed to a feeling comfort and intimacy, whereas cold is the opposite. My design has a destroyed fireplace and both rooms would be cold as result, further reinforcing the idea of the ruined relationship.<br />
<br />

By manipulating the senses the design has a much more profound experience. As the primary sense, vision is reduced and redirected, the more archaic senses take over, still providing a connection and awareness of the other.Kate I.F.http://www.blogger.com/profile/01494179578889092149noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8808937143420866757.post-44616939752070907152010-05-09T18:37:00.001-07:002010-05-09T20:32:29.992-07:00PARALLAX: LIGHT STUDIES<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

</div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;">In Steven Holl’s book <em>Parallax</em>, he conducts a series of experiments with light, the shape of a window and the surface the lights falls onto. Depending on the opening, a number of different effects can be achieved. I particularly thought the half oval skylight was interesting as it diffused the light down the wall. I need to think about my openings, and how the different windows I choose will affect the atmosphere of the spaces.</div><br />

It was cast in concrete around a cluster of 120 tree trunks, cut from a local forest, which were then slowly smoked away. This is a form of béton brut, wood imprinted concrete, but it leaves you with a much greater sense of what was once there. The funnel shape with an oculus that provides the only light for the small dark space reminds me of a chimney, which relates back to my idea of a destroyed fireplace. I would like to use this idea of burning away to create an empty space for my void.<br />
<br />
I would also like to use conventional béton brut for my interior rooms, as there is a false sense of warmth attributed to the use of timber, which is only a surface finish. The space would still be cold and hard, but like the couple, you could ignore it and pretend it is not really concrete.<br />

<br />
The idea of ignoring is that it is an active action. To ignore someone there is the need to still be aware of it, thus there cannot be disconnection, otherwise this would be separation. My first parti’s had separated spaces, but with my current one they are connected. The couple in the painting are not divorced from one another, only disconnected in their attention.<br />
<br />
In my last project, the Mother’s House by Robert Venturi, the house was held together by a fireplace, which is symbol of warmth and community. Perhaps the connecting feature of this current project could be a destroyed fireplace, a void that is cold and empty, which separates yet still tentatively connects. It is something I shall explore further.<br />

Hugh Ferriss a contemporary of Edward Hopper was an American delineator and architect. Like Hopper, Ferriss worked as a contracted illustrator throughout the 1920’s. Later, he began to develop a particular style, frequently presenting buildings at night lit up by spotlights. The shadows cast by and on the building produces a moody and fearsome atmosphere. His renders appear to glorify the colossal man-made structures of New York City, however the ominous feelings suggests otherwise. My reading of his works is that he, like Hopper, also comments on the value of the modern urban landscape.<br />
<br />
I would like to site my spaces in a Hugh Ferriss building, one that has eroded away and is no longer a glamorous modern building. This deterioration reflects the hardships endured by society at the time as well as the couple’s relationship. If it is just the exterior that is wearing down, perhaps that makes it easier for the couple to ignore.<br />

However, as I continued my research in the context of the painting my understanding changed, and I read the painting as a couple living in Upper Westside Manhattan 1932 whose relationship is suffering as a result of the challenges of their time.<br />
<br />
The man works in the Financial District and is constantly worried and stressed after the Wall Street Crash three years earlier. However his wife, inspired by the Federal Art Project, is busy exploring her own artistic endeavours. His world is a disaster whilst hers is full of opportunity. They are both too wrapped up in their own circumstances to see that their relationship is in decline.<br />

New York in the early 20th century was suffering from the Great Depression, but also celebrating an artistic revolution. This revolution arose from the economic depression as the American government commissioned a number of artists to complete public artworks to support local artistic activity and provide encouragement to the community. The Federal Art Project (FAP) supported iconic artists such as Jackson Pollock and Willem de Kooning before their work could earn them income.<br />
<br />
The Museum of Modern Art, located in Midtown Manhattan exhibited a number of the FAP works. It opened nine days after the Wall Street Crash, and helped play a major role in developing and collecting the modern art produced at the time. Incidentally, it was also the museum which held Hopper’s first large-scale exhibition in 1933.<br />

No reaction.</em><br />
<em></em><br />
<em>A bitter gust intrudes through the window from the Atlantic, causing me to shiver. I want to close the blind but I cannot bring myself. The total confinement would be too much. I would come face to face with temptation. It always lurks there in the back of my mind. It would be very simple, my hand enclosing the knob, and my body meeting the weight of the door. The strings would be cut, I would be liberated. I could leave this playhouse.</em><br />
<br />
<em>But for what? Where would I go? How would I live?</em><br />
<br />
<em>The outside world is dark, and I know that there is nothing quite so shaming as a marriage that has failed. Three years, and mine already a failure. All the things people would say. We did not get on. We were not suited to one another. I was too young, too inexperienced, not of his world. The fact I love him in a sad, desperate way, like a child or dog, does not matter. He does not belong to me, but rather I to him.</em><br />
<br />
<em>I don’t stay for his sake, no only for my own pride. I would be content to live in one corner and he in the other so long as the outside world should never know. If he had no more tenderness for me, never spoke to me except on matters of necessity, I believe I could bear it if I were certain that nobody knew of this but our own two selves.</em><br />
<br />
<br />
From this narrative I wrote down a couple of points and these became themes that I explored further in a number of sketches.<br />

</div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;">- Looking outside in – impossible view. Peeking. Voyeuristic. This view is only possible because it is night and the interior is lit up. They cannot see outside. A keyhole is a window in a door.</div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"><br />
</div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;">- Outside (real) life is never quite what is appears from the lofty heavenly window. Down on the streets. Similar to marriage. </div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"><br />
</div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;">- They ignore the outside and each other.</div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"><br />
</div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;">- Divided. Separation. Isolation; but not alone. Self focus. Confined; in the room and in an unhappy marriage.</div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"><br />
</div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;">- Secret truth. Lies. Keeping up appearances. Façade. Stage. Could this be going on in every household?</div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"><br />
</div>- Private snapshot. Orchestrated by the artist<br />
