Contracting Authority: State-Ministry of national Education, Rector of the Academy of Montpellier
Architects: Agency Brunet & Saunier
Architect of operation: Nicolas Crégut
Location: On the patio (a) and (b) front
Presentation :
The primary function of this building will be to host the Department of dramatic Arts as well as a theatre; These two events seemed obvious to an artistic intervention that bias will be focused around the concept of the ancient theater to me. I chose to intervene in two distinct places two parts intertwined through the symbolism and the architectural reading of the ancient theatre.
The first intervention finds its registration(inscription) in the patio, ( a ) place(square) around which will evolve the life appropriate(peculiar) to this establishment, at the heart of the agora ( a )
The second joins on the square, ( b ) place open to the public, more exactly the proskénion, ( b ) space neighboring to the building(ship) of scene(stage).
Intervention patio: the room (part,play) does not come to light immediately: seeming to emerge from the ground, several plans in oblique mirror and of concentric shape call back(remind) then the skéné. While moving through the space and the floors we discover her(it) and that in his/her turn she(it) makes us discover several levels of reading: so much by the architectural weft of the patio, the light zénitale (the mirror will defragment her(it) on the surrounding support(medium)), that by the beings which(who) shall evolve on the place(square). Indeed
This sculpture, through its presence, invites everyone to participate in grids ' player in this space social, public, place of passage, trade and traffic, where this piece may be inhabited and habitable.
It is composed of 4 plates of 10 mm thick mirror and whose diameters are 5 m - 3.70 m-2.60 m-1.50 m and a maximum height of 60 cm.
Intervention square: The room (part,play) does not come to light immediately: seeming to emerge from the ground, several plans in oblique mirror and of concentric shape call back(remind) then the skéné. While moving through the space and the floors we discover her(it) and that in his/her turn she(it) makes us discover several levels of reading: so much by the architectural weft of the patio, the light zénitale (the mirror will defragment her(it) on the surrounding support(medium)), that by the beings which(who) shall evolve on the place(square). Indeed
By the verticality of the piece, as well as its variable densities, the idea of the stage curtain appears. Curtain opens on the scene, namely the skene. We then find the sculpture of the patio and the notion of movement and reflection. The reflections generated by the street life, invite that comes forward, to blend in with the rhythm of the sculpture, and thus to participate in the exchange of University life and public life.Montpellier, France
