After graduating at the Rotterdam Art Academy Van Lieshout quickly rose to fame with projects that travelled between the world of easy-clean design and the non-functional area of art: sculpture and installations, buildings and furniture, utopias and dystopias. In 1995, Van Lieshout founded his studio and has been working solely under the studio’s name ever since. The studio moniker exists in Van Lieshout’s practice as a methodology toward undermining the myth of the artistic genius. Over the past three decades, Van Lieshout has established a multidisciplinary practice that produces works on the borders between art, design, and architecture. By investigating the thin line between manufacturing art and mass-producing functional objects, he seeks to find the boundaries between fantasy and function, between fertility and destruction. Van Lieshout dissects systems, be it society as a whole or the human body; he experiments, looks for alternatives, takes exhibitions as experiments for recycling, and has even declared an independent state in the port of Rotterdam AVL-Ville (2001)—a free state in the Rotterdam harbour, with a minimum of rules, a maximum of liberties, and the highest degree of autarky. All of these activities are conducted within Van Lieshout’s signature style of provocation—be it political or material. Van Lieshout combines an imaginative aesthetic and ethic with a spirit of entrepreneurship; his work has motivated movements in the fields of architecture and ecology, and has been internationally celebrated, exhibited, and published. His works share a number of recurring themes, motives, and obsessions: systems, power, autarky, life, sex, and death—each of these trace the human individual in the face of a greater whole such as his well-known work the Domestikator (2015). This sculpture caused controversy before even being placed at the Louvre in Jardin de Tuilleries, but was adopted by Centre Pompidou where it was shown during FiAC (2017). Van Lieshout's works have been included in the Gwangju, Venice, Yokohama, Christchurch, Shanghai and São Paulo biennials. AVL is in part of the permanent collections of public and private institutions such as: FNAC, Paris; Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen, Rotterdam; Stedelijk Museum, Amsterdam; Prada Foundation, Milan; Ludwig Forum, Aachen; Folkwang Museum, Essen; Migros Museum für Gegenwartskunst, Zürich.

    Guggenheim and AMO / Rem Koolhaas Announce Research Project Culminating in February 2020 Exhibition Countryside: Future of the World to Examine Radical Changes Transforming the Nonurban Landscape (NEW YORK, NY—November 29, 2017)—The Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, architect and urbanist Rem Koolhaas, and AMO, the think tank of the Office for Metropolitan Architecture (OMA), will collaborate on a project exploring radical changes in the countryside, the vast nonurban areas of Earth. The project extends work underway by AMO / Koolhaas and students at the Harvard Graduate School of Design and will culminate in a rotunda exhibition at the Guggenheim Museum in February 2020. Organized by Guggenheim Curator of Architecture and Digital Initiatives Troy Conrad Therrien, Founding Partner of OMA Rem Koolhaas, and AMO Director Samir Bantal, Countryside: Future of the World (working title) will present speculations about tomorrow through insights into the countryside of today. The exhibition will explore artificial intelligence and automation, the effects of genetic experimentation, political radicalization, mass and micro migration, large-scale territorial management, human-animal ecosystems, subsidies and tax incentives, the impact of the digital on the physical world, and other developments that are altering landscapes across the globe. “The Guggenheim has an appetite for experimentation and a founding belief in the transformative potential of art and architecture,” said Richard Armstrong, Director of the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum and Foundation.

  • Six Canonical Projects by Rem Koolhaas
    5 Six Canonical Projects by Rem Koolhaas has been part of the international avant-garde since the nineteen-seventies and has been named the Pritzker Rem Koolhaas Architecture Prize for the year 2000. This book, which builds on six canonical projects, traces the discursive practice analyse behind the design methods used by Koolhaas and his office + OMA. It uncovers recurring key themes—such as wall, void, tur montage, trajectory, infrastructure, and shape—that have tek structured this design discourse over the span of Koolhaas’s Essays on the History of Ideas oeuvre. The book moves beyond the six core pieces, as well: It explores how these identified thematic design principles archi manifest in other works by Koolhaas as both practical re- Ingrid Böck applications and further elaborations. In addition to Koolhaas’s individual genius, these textual and material layers are accounted for shaping the very context of his work’s relevance. By comparing the design principles with relevant concepts from the architectural Zeitgeist in which OMA has operated, the study moves beyond its specific subject—Rem Koolhaas—and provides novel insight into the broader history of architectural ideas. Ingrid Böck is a researcher at the Institute of Architectural Theory, Art History and Cultural Studies at the Graz Ingrid Böck University of Technology, Austria. “Despite the prominence and notoriety of Rem Koolhaas … there is not a single piece of scholarly writing coming close to the … length, to the intensity, or to the methodological rigor found in the manuscript

Interested parties may contact the editors. Ashley Paine University of Queensland THE RHETORIC OF AUTHENTIC SURFACES: GOLD LEAF IN THE RECENT WORK OF OMA AND MARIO BOTTA. In 2015, the first stage of O.M.A.’s Fondazione Prada in Milan was opened to the public. Led by O.M.A. founder, Rem Koolhaas, the project consists of a campus of re-purposed industrial buildings to house the art collection and associated cultural activities of the Italian fashion giant. Of all the extant buildings, the visual focus is on an ordinary five-storey structure, which has been covered entirely in gold leaf. While O.M.A. have employed gold leaf on a small number of earlier projects, there are also other contemporary parallels, including Mario Botta’s church in Seriate, located just fifty kilometres east of Milan. Completed in 2004, Botta’s church establishes a curious inversion of O.M.A.’s gold building: its interior is lined extensively in gilded timber slats.

  • Mark Gilbert
    Mark Gilbert On Beyond Koolhaas Identity, Sameness and the Crisis of City Planning Many ways more an orator than a theorist, Rem Koolhaas speaks neither a Jeremiad nor a Philippic. In his influential writings on urbanism, his rhetoric brings to mind Shakespeare’s Mark Anthony: he is here to bury the city, not to praise it. And like the crowd before Anthony, we are swayed: the world appears in new sharpness and we are compelled to choose sides. Yet Koolhaas rarely instructs. Only in few cases does he attempt to offer any strategies for managing or improving the conditions he identifies. Amoral and pragmatic, he dismisses leftist concerns for collective good and derides nostalgia. Yet, he draws out front lines, identifies new alliances and spreads new hope for what might be when we can find ourselves at peace with the world. And like Anthony before him, he is convinced that we stand at the watershed – in this case, in the matters of architecture and urbanism. Resisting the alluring seduction of Koolhaas’ powerful rhetorics, let’s try to determine what lesson could be distilled out of his writings on “what used be” cities. He voices radical criticism of conventional urbanistic wisdom and heralds the birth of the Generic City, a city “ohne Eigenschaften”, uncontrollable, autopoietic and and infinitely repeatable. In the opening line to “Generic Cities” he postulates a convergence in the contemporary city, of sameness that results from relentless urban expansion subsuming the historical city: “Is the contemporary city is like the contemporary airport — ‘all the same‘?”1 For Koolhaas, the city used to ground local identity but in the world of today, “Identity conceived as this form of sharing the past is a losing proposition…”2 While most architects and urban designers mourn the loss of local traditions and regional differences and even call for local resistance, as evoked for example by Kenneth Frampton’s concept of critical regionalism, Koolhaas resolutely affirms the homogenizing effects of global economy.

  • On 9 May 2015, Fondazione Prada Opens Its New Permanent Milan Venue and Presents a New Exhibition in Venice
    ON 9 MAY 2015, FONDAZIONE PRADA OPENS ITS NEW PERMANENT MILAN VENUE AND PRESENTS A NEW EXHIBITION IN VENICE Milan, 2 May 2015 - The new Milan venue of Fondazione Prada opens to the public on Saturday 9 May 2015. In conjunction with the Milan spaces, the Fondazione venetian outpost will continue to operate in the 18th century palazzo Ca’ Corner della Regina, where a new exhibition launches on the same date. The architectural project developed by OMA, led by Rem Koolhaas, expands the repertoire of spatial typologies in which art can be exhibited and shared with the public. Characterized by an articulated architectural configuration which combines seven existing buildings with three new structures (Podium, Cinema and Torre), the new venue is the result of the transformation of a distillery dating back to the 1910’s. In the project conceived by OMA, two conditions coexist: preservation and the creation of a new architecture which, although separate, confront each other in a state of permanent interaction. Located in Largo Isarco, in the south of Milan, the compound develops on an overall surface of 19.000 m2/205,000 ft2. Torre (tower), currently undergoing construction work, will be open to the public at a later stage. Fondazione Prada was created in 1993 as an outpost to analyze present times through the staging of contemporary art exhibitions as well as architecture, cinema and philosophy projects. The diversity of the new spaces has become the incentive to develop an experimental, stimulating program in which different languages and disciplines, though independent from each other, coexist in order and activate an ever-changing evolving intellectual process.

  • Fondazione Prada's Milan Headquarters Currently Presents
    FONDAZIONE PRADA: 2021 - 2022 PROGRAM Fondazione Prada’s Milan headquarters currently presents “Who the Bær”, the new show by Simon Fujiwara (on view until 27 September 2021), and “Atlas”, the permanent exhibition which features a selection of works from Collezione Prada, displayed in the five floors of Torre. The exhibition spaces are open to the public from Thursday to Sunday, from 10 am to 7 pm. In compliance with the rules on containment and management of the epidemiological emergency, admission is limited and requires the purchase of a ticket online until 12 am of the day before the visit. The exhibition “Who the Bær”, focused on a fictional bear in search for identity, investigates the simultaneous quest for fantasy and authenticity in the culture we consume. The project is conceived to furtherly develop into a digital platform aimed at sharing and exploring, through the Instagram account @whothebaer, animated by Fujiwara, and a web app conceived by the artist. The initiative is part of a process undertaken by Fondazione Prada and aimed at continuously develop its digital presence and experiment with a multitude of times and means of audience engagement. The Venetian venue, the historic building of Ca’ Corner della Regina, reopens from 22 May to 21 November 2021 with “Stop Painting”, the exhibition conceived by artist Peter Fischli (the press preview will take place on Wednesday 19 May). The project explores a series of specific ruptures within the history of painting in the last 150 years, intertwined with the emergence of new social factors and cultural values. The artist identified five radical ruptures caused by technological and social changes that marked artistic paradigm shifts through rejection and reinvention of painting.

  • Paramount House Hotel
    Hotels PARAMOUNT HOUSE HOTEL Breathe Architecture The history of this three-storey brick building built in the 1930s is quite interesting. Formerly a warehouse, it adjoins the historic Surry Hills, Australia 2018 Paramount House from the 1940s, and is an important part of the historic context associated with Paramount Pictures Studio, and the 20th Century Fox Film Association. Breathe Architecture, the studio behind this amazing transformation, has skilfully juxtaposed existing elements with the newly designed parts. A strong visual effect has been achieved through an interesting mix of materials from the preserved brickwork, recycled timber, and traces of former walls to the metalwork, concrete, and locally designed tiles. Robust and authentic meets glorious, elegant, and light. In particular, 35 the corner facade makes a statement as it is defined by a fusion of the existing brick structure and the copper addition. “The conceptual approach was about marrying these two ideas – the artefact and ornament,” state the architects, adding that “it’s an idea about expressing everything that was old, and true and honest and raw, about the existing warehouse, and capturing the spirit and excitement of the golden era of film.” While a former film vault has been transformed into the reception lounge, a hidden bright atrium creates a connection with the Paramount Pictures Building. There are only 29 rooms in the hotel and each has been designed individually. They take on different shapes and sizes depending on their location in the building. All suites are equipped with an external terrace, which, tucked in behind either the brick envelope on the lower levels or a copper screen on the higher floors, provides shade as well as natural ventilation.
