This title contains essays by Florian Matzner, Sven-Olov Wallenstein, Lisa Le Feuvre, includes an interview with the artist by Nigel Prince. The house-projects of Wolfgang Weileder offer an exciting perspective on the relationship between time and space, on the interface between reality and virtuality and re-define the interconnection between architecture and art in public space in a novel and trend-setting way. The house - Birmingham was a highlight in Ikon Gallery's recent artistic programme. Off-site, located in Birmingham's Centenary Square, it was seen by hundreds of thousands of people, a potentially endless process of construction and deconstruction. It was not a finished, self-contained work of art but a process, an ongoing cooperation between participants, before disappearing as it appeared, out of nowhere. |
