Techne, n : A convergence between art, craftsmanship and architecture
Den Frie, 06/21/2014 - 08/03/2014
ABOUT
Within the five perimeter rooms of Den Frie, five teams of artists and architects will create new projects unique to each space. These projects will be developed as collaborative responses that melds two similar yet distinct fields of inquiry, in which art and architecture mediates a single body of work in considered response to the space it inhabits. Varying in scale, material, colour, texture, and technique, these works define the space with the personal imprints of their makers, standing as architectural artefacts or fragments that recall the sociologist Henri Lefebrve’s notion of space as a purely humanistic one, where objects we encounter confirm our presence to an ever-exchanging, living world. An adjacent exhibit will document each team’s approaches, processes, and means of making. The breadth of this exhibition will span from textiles to ceramics, from the hand-made to the machine-made, and from art to architecture.
Artists
The participating artists and the constellations they are working within are:
Ben Allen (UK), James Bae (US), Jan Bünnig (DE), Jesper Carlsen (DK), Ricardo Gomes (PT/DE), Asako Iwama (JP/DE), Gianna Ledermann (CH), Akane Moriyama (JP/SE), Anders Hellsten Nissen (DK/DE), PioveneFabi (IT), Julian Stair (UK) and Hither Yon (US/DE) (including artist Michael LEE).
