Concrete: Photography and Architecture - Jubilee Exhibition 1

Mar 02, 2013 - May 20, 2013
Architectures and cities body and images simultaneously. They are immediately physically, sensual, but also experienced through images. Pictures speak a language other than the physical experience of architecture. They turn volume in space, they distill matter to form and character. Photography shaped architecture, it deforms, enlarged, reduced, increased or decreased it, accentuates it, but rarely is architecture "left alone". This is probably why many architects try to help determine the image of their buildings to shape. Architecture is usually photographed before signs of wear appear before the building is taken into possession and transformed.
Concrete - photography and architecture will be playful with curious diverse relationship between architecture and photography to, narrative approach and dialectically. The exhibition probes history and ideology, but also quite specifically to form and matter in the photographed image. The visual appeal of destroyed or ruined buildings is also discussed, as massive demonstrations of power and distinction, but also fragility and beauty of a temporary architecture. How does the photograph not only perception, but also the design of architecture? How is architecture in the picture alive when it will scary? As settlements grow together into cities? Or sociological asked: Why are working and living in Zurich and Winterthur entangle unlike in Calcutta? And how can skyscrapers and homes transferred in the flat world of photography?
