The Bourse De Commerce — Pinault Collection, a Museum Accessible to Everyone The Bourse de Commerce — Pinault Collection, a museum accessible to everyone In the heart of Paris, the Bourse de Commerce — Pinault Collection presents part of the contemporary art collection amassed by François Pinault over the past forty years. In the historic building of the former Bourse de Commerce (com- modities exchange), restored and transformed by Japanese architect Tadao Ando, a dialogue emerges between heritage and contemporary creation. Through the prism of a collector’s gaze on the art of today and in an effort to increase public awareness and understanding, the Bourse de Commerce — Pinault Collection offers regular exhibitions and hangings of contemporary art, with artist com- missions, cartes blanches and a rich programme of cultural events: lectures, screenings, concerts and performances. Open to everyone, the Bourse de Commerce — Pinault Collection strives to offer an accessible and inclusive pro- gramme of events in line with its exhibitions. Finally, the Bourse de Commerce – Pinault Collection is equip- ped with all the necessary facilities to ensure that everyone’s visit is a pleasant and stress-free experience. Certain areas of this listed building with historic monument status are subject to preservation constraints and therefore, do not feature standard accessibility norms.

I was very lucky during these years to have you as a thesis director. Your assistance was very enlightening and is greatly appreciated. Thank you for your daily comments and help, and most of all thank you for your friendship, and your support to my little family. I would like also to thank the members of my thesis committee, Dr Eric Verdeil and Professor Bernard Declève, for guiding me during these last four years. Thank you for taking so much interest in my research work, for your encouragement and valuable comments, and thank you as well for all the travel you undertook for those committee meetings.

  • Libeskind's Jewish Museum Berlin
    Encountering empty architecture: Libeskind’s Jewish Museum Berlin Henrik Reeh Preamble In Art Is Not What You Think It Is, Claire Farago and Donald Preziosi observe how the architecture of contemporary museums inspires active relationships between exhibitions and visitors.1 Referring to the 2006 Denver Art Museum by Daniel Libeskind, they show the potentials germinating in a particular building. When artists and curators are invited to dialog with the spaces of this museum, situations of art-in-architecture may occur which go beyond the ordinary confrontation of exhibitions and spectatorship, works and visitors. Libeskind’s museum is no neutral frame in the modernist tradition of the white cube, but a heterogeneous spatiality. These considerations by Farago and Preziosi recall the encounter with earlier museums by Libeskind. Decisive experiences particularly date back to the year 1999 when his Jewish Museum Berlin was complete as a building, long before being inaugurated as an exhibition hall in 2001. Open to the public for guided tours in the meantime, the empty museum was visited by several hundred thousand people who turned a peripheral frame of future exhibitions into the center of their sensory and mental attention. Yet, the Libeskind building was less an object of contemplation than the occasion for an intense exploration of and in space. Confirming modernity’s close connection between exhibition and architecture, Libeskind’s Jewish Museum Berlin unfolds as a strangely dynamic and fragmented process, the moments of which call for elaboration and reflection. I. Architecture/exhibition Throughout modernity, exhibitions and architecture develop in a remarkably close relationship to one another.

  • The Berlin 'Neues Museum' - a Microcosm of Prussian Building Technology Against the Background of Beginning Industrialization
    Transactions on the Built Environment vol 39 © 1999 WIT Press, www.witpress.com, ISSN 1743-3509 The Berlin 'Neues Museum' - a microcosm of Prussian building technology against the background of beginning industrialization W.Lorenz Chair of history of building technology, Brandenburg Technical University, D-03013 Cottbus, Germany email: [email protected] Abstract The 'Neues Museum', situated in the historic center of Berlin, was built between 1841 and 1859. Heavily damaged during world war II and increasingly ruined in the following decades, it is presently awaiting restoration, the plans for which have been drafted by the British architect David Chipperfleld. This paper goes into the role of this masterpiece of Prussian classicism as a high-tech structure in its time, characterized by a wide range of unusual and newly developed construc- tion methods - various light weight brick vaultings as well as hollow pot vaul- tings, but, of primary importance, a multitude of often hidden cast iron and wrought iron structural elements. The building's design and history, as well as the building itself, express a new, forward-looking understanding of construction against the background of the industrial revolution, that includes all of its aspects - the process of building, the produce of building and the challenge in terms of architectural and artistic expression. Now, 150 years after the building's com- pletion, the rebuilding and restoration post new technical challenges, because as many of the historical structures as possible have to be made to perform their functions again, with due consideration given to conservation requirements. 1 Introduction In 1841, just 17 years after the works for the first great Museum in Berlin, desig- ned by the famous Prussian architect Karl Friedrich Schinkel, had begun in 1824, Transactions on the Built Environment vol 39 © 1999 WIT Press, www.witpress.com, ISSN 1743-3509 390 Structural Studies, Repairs and Maintenance of Historical Buildings foundation works for another Royal Museum were started.
