Selgascano : Serpentine Gallery 2015 Le pavillon Serpentine 2015 a été imaginé par les architectes madrilènes José Selgas et Lucía Cano. Cette année la galerie Serpentine accueille un pavillon coloréLe pavillon dessiné par Selgascano est constitué d'une structure amorphe recouverte d'une double paroi de coussin ETFE. Les polymères translucides qui enveloppent la structure sont colorés et offre une architecture vive au pavillon. A l'intérieur la promenade se fait sous des reflets colorés. Les visiteurs peuvent entrer et sortir du pavillon à travers différentes entrées jusqu'au centre de l'exposition. Les architectes se sont inspirés de la manière de se déplacer que les gens ont à Londres au travers de flux à la fois structurés et chaotiques.A propos du pavillon, les architectes précisent :"When the Serpentine invited us to design the Pavilion, we began to think about what the structure needed to provide and what materials should be used in a Royal Park in London. These questions, mixed with our own architectural interests and the knowledge that the design needs to connect with nature and feel part of the landscape, provided us with a concept based on pure visitor experience. We sought a way to allow the public to experience architecture through simple elements: structure, light, transparency, shadows, lightness, form, sensitivity, change, surprise, colour and materials. We have therefore designed a Pavilion which incorporates all of these elements. The spatial qualities of the Pavilion only unfold when accessing the structure and being immersed within it. Each entrance allows for a specific journey through the space, characterised by colour, light and irregular shapes with surprising volumes. This is accomplished by creating a double-layered shell, made of opaque and translucent fluorinebased plastic (ETFE) in a variety of colours. At the heart of the Pavilion is an open space for gathering as well as a café. We are also very much aware of the Pavilion's anniversary in our design for the 15th annual commission. The structure therefore had to be – without resembling previous Pavilions – a tribute to them all and a homage to all the stories told within those designs."Photographies : Iwan Baan, NAARO, John Offenbach et Jim StephensonPour en savoir plus, visitez le site de la Serpentine Gallery et de Selgascano Précédent Suivant
