Heinz Emigholz + Le Corbusier


Le Corbusier [IIIII] Asger Jorn [Relief]
Germany / Denmark 2015, 29 min

Le Corbusier [IIIII] Asger Jorn [Relief] contrasts the Villa Savoye, built by Le Corbusier in 1931, and Asger Jorn’s Grand Relief, which the Danish painter and sculptor produced in 1959 for the Århus Statsgymnasium. The film makes connections between what, according to the ideological stipulations of their creators, does not belong together.

“The film came about because I was intrigued by the premise of comparing two buildings that at first seem to have nothing to do with one another. A dialogue between thoroughly stylized clarity and declared wildness, both with ideologically trimmings. It was only by working on the film that I learned to appreciate the two works that had once left me indifferent: the delight of their creators in the productively implemented statement.”

Clara Ianni + Costa and Niemeyer

Free Form
video installation
7’14’’
2013
In 1959 Brazil´s capital city, Brasília, was being constructed, designed to be the symbol of modernization and development of the country. Despite its utopian horizons, a massacre happened during the construction of the city, in which the State police killed more than 100 workers after a strike. The video is composed by interviews made with Lucio Costa (the city’s urban planner) and Oscar Niemeyer (the city’s architect), in which both denied the acknowledgement of the massacre, and photos from the construction site, commission by the State, made by Marcel Gautherot. The video reflects on the conflict between institutionalized historical discourses and counter narratives, questioning (infra)structures of power such as History itself, architecture and aesthetic.

Dom-Ino Colour Separation 2002
acrylic, laminated ply
15.8 × 28.2 × 20.4cm

Dom-Ino Colour Separation is one of a series of sculptures by James Angus taking the form of an architectural model. It plays with the modernist architect Le Corbusier’s Maison Dom-Ino, a 1915 prototype for cheap, modular housing that could be constructed in a row, like dominoes. Angus has re-modelled this utopian vision of housing in planes of coloured Plexiglass that overhang each other, unlike the aligned edges of the house’s original design. Angus also introduces a colour separation between the misaligned levels, creating an effect akin to a newsprint error when the three colours separate and the image slips out of register. Through such spatial and chromatic disruptions, Angus invites viewers to see the world about them in new and imaginative ways.
Angus explores the tensions between the modelled idea and the built form and between the ‘colour-separated’ image and the object in this sculpture. His practice is one that questions traditional notions and forms of sculpture by playing with surface, scale and volume. His work ranges from the modest to the gigantic, revealing his ongoing interest in materials and processes. Inspired by aspects of design, architecture and nature, Angus often duplicates existing objects and then distorts them in some way: by exposing them to physical forces such as extreme speed, by turning them inside out, or, as we see in Dom-Ino Colour Separation, by a slight slippage which may be commonplace in a newspaper, but which deranges the clean lines and precision of modernist architecture.
