For an installation at Solitude, which
coincides with the launch of Almost Architecture book published by Merz&Solitude,
a moment of how city incorporates new shapes into itself is isolated as an
installation in light. Twelve slide projectors at Solitude show a number of
contemporary building shapes born in the Balkans that spark imagination by
their irregularity and appearance. They are not examples of perfection, but they
are examples of perfected ambition. This ambition is to make the city
private and beautiful at the same time. This we can read as the antidote to
the most difficult goal of modernism that happened in the Balkans region
during socialism, that is to make city collective and functional. >> |
