家を身に纏う 建築がジュエリーになる時
データや情報によって生活が支配される今、私たちは物理的空間との係
を取り戻す必要に迫られています。このワークショップでは、具体的な建築物を考察することで、単なる機能という枠を超え、私たちの内面と外界に安定をもたらす美や装飾を感じさせる構造や形態に対する認識を深めていきます。それぞれが独自のやり方で身体と関わり合うジュエリーと建築というふたつの芸術形態をめぐる新たな拡張されたイマジネーションは、違う素材や次元へと変換されることで、広がりを見せることでしょう。その目的は、新たな認識を通じ、個性や自己イメージに対して建築とジュエリーの双方がもちうる可能性を体験し、理解することにあります。大きなものとごく小さなものである建築とジュエリーが持つスケールは、それぞれが独自の性質のもと、社会におけるやり取りやコミュニケーションの中で交わされる様々なレベルの行動様式をつかさどっています。

wearable houses – how jewellery from architecture grows
At a time when informations and data dominate our lives, there is an urgent need to re-engage with physical space. By exploring specific architectural situations, we will develop an awareness of structures and forms that enable us to perceive beauty and the ornamental, giving stability to our inner and outer world going beyond pure function.
Through transmissions into other materials and dimensions, a new and expanded imagination of jewellery and architecture, two artistic forms that relate to the body in a very specific way, enfolds.
The aim is to experience and understand the potential of both for one's own personality and self-image through new perceptions. From large to very small, jewellery and architecture, in their very own quality, hold a scale for multilayered modes of action in social interaction and communication.
A workshop by the German artists Susan Pietzsch (founder of SCHMUCK2) and Gabi Schillig (Studio for Dialogical Spaces, Berlin & professor for Spatial and Exhibition Design at the Berlin University of the Arts).

Alberti´s Window & Other Worldviews | Syracuse University School of Architecture, Florence, Italy | Lecture
Gabi got invited by Daniele Profeta (Syracuse University School of Architecture in Florence) to speak in his visual-studies seminar about the future questions of spatial design and their entangelment with media ecologies between bodies and landscapes.
About the course_ "Alberti’s Window & other Worldviews Renaissance architect Leon Battista Alberti was one of the first to link the architectural window to a larger metaphorical meaning. In De pictura Alberti utilized the image of the open window, la finestra aperta, to conceptualize this architectural element as a framing device for a series of interrelationships rather than an autonomous object itself. (...) At a time when the digital realm affects the built environment and vice versa, when screens become virtual windows that overlay the physical ones, this course will be organized around a series of field trips studying Renaissance windows in Florence, as well as workshops teaching representation techniques focusing on contemporary imaging technologies (ranging from 3D scanning to VR applications)."

Vortrag
02.12.2022 – 17h
Material, Körper und Kommunikation – in der Arbeit von Gabi Schillig stehen diese im Zentrum eines experimentellen Gestaltungsprozesses. Immer wieder treten maßstabslose Körper in Relation zum öffentlichen, zum gebauten Raum – Ausstellung, Stadt und Landschaft werden auf unmittelbare Weise verbunden und eröffnen neue Kommunikationsräume. Gabi Schillig ist Professorin für Raumbezogenes Entwerfen und Ausstellungsgestaltung an der Universität der Künste Berlin und entwickelt künstlerisch-gestalterische Projekte im Rahmen ihres ‚Studio for Dialogical Spaces’.
