Chicago Architecture Biennial News from Italian architects baukuh

The Chapel for Scenes of Public Life is a pavilion designed by baukuh and Stefano Graziani for the II Chicago Architecture Biennial “Make New History”, curated by Sharon Johnston and Mark Lee. The project is presented through a large wooden model in scale 1:2. The model measures 3×12 m, and is 4,5 m high and is located in the Exhibition Hall of the Chicago Public Building.

The public event depicted inside the Chapel for Scenes of Public Life is the imaginary (and impossible) meeting of Enrico Mattei and the Queen of Sheba. Enrico Mattei (1906–62) was an Italian politician and entrepreneur who ran the state-owned oil company ENI. The Queen of Sheba is mentioned in the Bible (I Kings, 10:1-13 and II Chronicles, 9:1–12) in relation to her visit to King Solomon.

Piero della Francesca painted the Meeting of Solomon and the Queen of Sheba in his fresco cycle “Legend of the True Cross” in the basilica of San Francesco in Arezzo. (For those in need of a quick update, there is a terrible movie by King Vidor starring Yul Brynner and Gina Lollobrigida as Solomon and Sheba.) Mattei was at the same time a modern and an archaic man, which makes him the perfect match for the Queen of Sheba.

Nothing is known about the queen’s remote, archaic country of origin, apart from its fabulous name, “Arabia Felix”. It is possible to imagine this country as a reservoir of the substance that Pasolini called the “revolutionary force of the past” (la forza rivoluzionaria del passato).

The Queen of Sheba is the Unconscious arriving on a state visit. The only thing we can assume about the meeting of Mattei and the queen is that it will take place in a public space. They will speak politics. Their meeting will be explicitly ceremonial. It is not only a public story, but is explicitly staged as such.

The Chapel for Scenes of Public Life is an attempt to imagine contemporary public space, and so to imagine the conditions under which architecture can be considered an art and an intellectual endeavor (or, as in the title of this Architecture Biennial, how to make new history). It is of course also an attempt at imagining a possible subject that could ask for this kind of public space.

Chicago Architecture Biennial Announces Participants for the 2017 Edition

CHICAGO ARCHITECTURE BIENNIAL ANNOUNCES PARTICIPANTS FOR THE 2017 EDITION

MORE THAN 100 FIRMS AND ARTISTS FROM OVER 20 COUNTRIES

March 6, 2017 – The Chicago Architecture Biennial (CAB) announced today the list of international architecture firms and artists who will participate in its second edition, entitled “Make New History,” to take place September 16, 2017–January 7, 2018, in Chicago, Illinois.

Over 100 firms and artists representing countries around the world were selected by the 2017 Biennial Artistic Directors, Sharon Johnston and Mark Lee, of the Los Angeles–based firm Johnston Marklee. The participants (listed on the following pages) will present their architectural work at the Chicago Cultural Center, as well as additional sites across the city.

“The City of Chicago is proud to host new projects by architects, artists and designers from around the world with the 2017 Chicago Architecture Biennial,” said Mayor Rahm Emanuel of today’s announcement. “We are pleased to announce another outstanding lineup of work and perspectives to build on the success of the inaugural 2015 edition. Not only will the breadth of work represented by designers from around the world showcase the future of architecture, but it will also further reinforce Chicago’s stature as a global city.”

“Our goal for the 2017 Chicago Architecture Biennial is to continue to build on the themes and ideas presented in the first edition,” said Lee. In addition, Johnston said, “We hope to examine, through the work of the chosen participants, the continuous engagement with questions of history and architecture as an evolutionary practice.”

“This year’s list of participants was carefully chosen to showcase the future of architecture and design rooted in history,” said Todd Palmer, Executive Director of the Chicago Architecture Biennial. “Through presenting a variety of work, we aim to give visitors of all kinds, from leaders across the global architecture community to the interested traveler, an in-depth look at architecture as we know it today, and the chance to be inspired by how architecture is making new history in cities around the world.”

The Biennial’s return is based on the first edition’s success. In 2015, more than 530,000 Chicago residents and visitors took part in CAB, which—as the largest international exhibition of contemporary architecture ever to have taken place in North America—was unprecedented, featuring the ideas of more than 100 architecture and design firms from more than 30 countries.

Based on the diverse representation of today’s lineup announcement, as well as the recent announcement of CAB’s new artistic leadership team, the second edition is poised to build on the success of the first. The Chicago Cultural Center, operated by Chicago’s Department of Cultural Affairs and Special Events, will once again serve as the anchor of the exhibition, with additional sites across the city.

The opening of the 2017 Chicago Architecture Biennial will align with the sixth annual EXPO CHICAGO, the International Exposition of Contemporary and Modern Art, which will run September 13–17, 2017 at Navy Pier.

A complete list of Biennial programming and special events will be available in the coming months at www.chicagoarchitecturebiennial.org.

James Welling’s project Chicago , commissioned for the 2017 Chicago Architecture Biennial, is comprised of photographs of modernist architect, Mies van der Rohe’s IIT Campus and Lakeshore Drive apartments. Welling first encountered the work of Mies early on in his career while photographing models and design objects in the Department of Architecture and Design of the Museum of Modern Art under Arthur Drexler.

In Chicago, Welling recreates digital versions of lesser known multi-film exposure techniques invented over 50 years ago to make experimental color photography. Welling’s method, which he describes as modeling, draws out the environmental information captured in the image frame and transforms it, exposing an alternate and popish filtration and atmosphere to counter the iconic, absolutism of the architecture of the period.

Chicago reflects an important aspect of our curatorial interest; the tools and techniques of architectural interpretation were as much a part of rendering modernity, as the spaces that were produced in the period.

James Welling

Work by James Welling

James Welling has been questioning the norms of representation since the 1970’s. His work centers on an exploration of photography, shuffling the elemental components of the medium to produce a distinctly uncompromising body of work. Welling is also intensely interested in cultural and personal ideas of memory in his work. In opening up the medium of photography for experimentation, James Welling’s practice has influenced an entire generation of artists and photographers.

Welling was born in 1951 in Hartford, Connecticut. He studied at Carnegie Mellon University and the University of Pittsburgh and received his B.F.A. and M.F.A. from the California Institute of the Arts in Valencia, California. Since 2005, his work has been represented by David Zwirner. In 2015, James Welling: Choreograph marked his sixth solo show at the gallery in New York.

In January 2017, the Stedelijk Museum voor Actuele Kunst (S.M.A.K.) in Ghent presented, James Welling: Metamorphosis, a solo show encompassing the artist’s work from over three decades. The exhibition will travel to Kunstforum Wien in Vienna.

Things Beyond Resemblance: James Welling Photographs, a solo exhibition hosted in 2015 by the Brandywine River Museum of Art in Chadds Ford, Pennsylvania, presented fifty works from the artist’s Wyeth project. The museum also commissioned the artist to create eight site-specific installations, Gradients, which explore the intersection of photography and sculpture.

In 2013, a major survey, James Welling: Monograph, was organized by the Cincinnati Art Museum in Ohio and accompanied by a catalogue published by Aperture. The exhibition traveled to the Hammer Museum in Los Angeles. In 2012, James Welling: The Mind on Fire at the MK Gallery in Milton Keynes, England, explored the origin and development of Welling’s abstract photographs from the 1980s. The show traveled to the Centro Galego de Arte Contemporánea in Santiago de Compostela, Spain and the Contemporary Art Gallery in Vancouver.

Welling’s work has been exhibited widely in the United States and internationally, including solo exhibitions at the Art Institute of Chicago (2014); Fotomuseum Winterthur, Switzerland; University Museum of Contemporary Art, UMASS Amherst, Amherst, Massachusetts (both 2013); Wadsworth Atheneum Museum of Art, Hartford, Connecticut (both 2012); Minneapolis Institute of Arts, Minnesota (2010); Palais des Beaux-Arts, Brussels; Art Gallery of York University, Toronto (both 2002); Sprengel Museum Hannover (1999); Carnegie Museum of Art, Pittsburgh; and the Kunstmuseum Luzern, Lucerne, Switzerland (both 1998). In 2000, the Wexner Center for the Arts, Columbus, Ohio organized a major survey of his work, which traveled to the Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles, and the Baltimore Museum of Art. In 1990, the artist’s first museum exhibition was presented by Kunsthalle Bern.

Work by the artist has been extensively included in international group exhibitions, including This Will Have Been: Art, Love & Politics in the 1980s, which was first hosted by the Museum of Contemporary Art Chicago in 2012. In 2011, the artist’s work was included in Jeff Wall: The Crooked Path, first presented at Palais des Beaux-Arts, Brussels; in 2009, Welling’s work was featured in the critically acclaimed historical survey The Pictures Generation, 1974–1984 at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York; and in 2008, he participated in the Whitney Biennial. In 2004, his work was presented in Os anos 80: Uma topologia/The 80s: A Topology at Museu Serralves, Porto, Portugal and Éblouissement at Jeu de Paume, Paris, and in 1992, his work was included in documenta IX.

In 2014, Welling was a recipient of the Infinity Award given by the International Center of Photography, New York. In 2016, he l received the Julius Shulman Institute Excellence in Photography Award from Woodbury University, California. From 1995 to 2016, he was Area Head of Photography at UCLA. He is presently a Visiting Professor of Photography at Princeton University.

The artist’s work is held in major museum collections, including the Centre Georges Pompidou, Paris; Hammer Museum, Los Angeles; Kunstmuseum Wolfsburg, Germany; Los Angeles County Museum of Art; The Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York; Museum of Contemporary Art Chicago; Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles; Museum of Fine Arts, Boston; The Museum of Modern Art, New York; Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, New York; Tokyo Metropolitan Museum of Photography; Vancouver Art Gallery; Wadsworth Atheneum Museum of Art, Hartford, Connecticut; and the Whitney Museum of American Art, New York. He lives and works in Los Angeles.
