11/01 Cooperation ArchitecturalDesign and MSc2 RMIT TU Delft on Rietveld@Rietveld
Project: Rietveld Academy Amsterdam, research and intervention (foto at the NAI in Rotterdam)
In this design course you learn to do research and recognise the architectural and cultural values of the existing buildings in the urban context. A design for redevelopment of a building complex needs preconditions from an architectural historical point of view to respond to certain demands of aesthetics, building technology and function.
The institution for fine arts and design located in Amsterdam is founded in 1924 after a fusion of three older art academies. In the 1960s Dutch architect Gerrit Rietveld designed a new, more functional building for the institute. Gerrit Rietveld died quite some years before the realisation of the building and to honour its architect, the academy was renamed in 1968 to Gerrit Rietveld Academie.
At this present moment the academy needs more functional space. The intention to move to a bigger building, like the former GAK-building, wasn’t continued last year. The academy stays at her current location, but needs an extension. The theme of this extension will be ‘connecting and meeting’. The monumentality of the building, the technological problems of the building climate, the artist Gerrit Rietveld, the former intervention of Benthem Crouwel, densification and the urban context are aspects of study. We have a combination of studios of Architectural Design of the Gerrit Rietveld Academie Amsterdam and MSc2 RMIT TU Delft. The kick off of this combined studio will be in the afternoon of Monday 11 January at the NAi, Rotterdam and will continue in February.

‘STICHTING NUTTELOOS’ WITH JULIA FISCHER AND OTHERS
Project proposal ‘The Never Used Church ’
Nutteloos is an artist collective focused on finding un-used spaces and transforming them into spaces for site-specific art installations. These spaces become an entrance in which to connect to the history of the site and to the community around.
This project we want to realize in a church in the village Chateaugay in France. The reason we chose this specific church is because of its unique history. It was built in secret in the back yard of two sisters as a gift for the village, but because of the circumstances the authorities of the village never acknowledged the church building, and it was not officially consecrated. The few church activities that took place in the church had to be performed in secret. The church remains a sensitive subject in the village still after 200 years.
This led us to a discourse on when is a church a church and how does a space relate to its use.
We want to make an exhibition about ‘Traces’ in the church.
As a group we would like to take the chance of getting inspired on the location to realize an authentic site-specific project. The investigation on the spot is the central aspect in our working method.
For us it is very interesting that the church never had an official religious purpose but that the community has found so many alternatives uses for the building.
Two-hundred years of existence must have left physical evidence of activity in the church. We are eager to investigate the traces that are left behind.
We will begin with documenting traces that catch our interest. We are planning to use the traces to create stories or emphasize certain qualities and characteristics.
We are not only aiming to find out more about the church’s history. We are also interested in exploring what the traces tell us and what happens if we try to form our own story from those traces.
As a result we see a collective installation using the full potential of the unique space including different media such as sculpture, video, installations, drawing, interventions, and sound.
The mayor of the village has agreed on letting us use the location in the period of 26th of July to the 15th of August. The participants of the project are nine students from different departments of the Rietveld Academie.
The method of the Rietveld is to teach its students to work independently and to become autonomous artists. This is an initiative brought together by this spirit and as such it should be encouraged. It is an important step to take the initiative to form a collective in which we can work together towards future projects that could not be realized by anyone of us on our own. We are a group of very motivated and hardworking students and learning to realize a project of this size would be a very important step in our developments as artists.
For the project we need financial support to cover the costs of material and publishing. See attached budget.

INTRO WORKSHOP TIENGEMETEN PICTURES
Tiengemeten 3 day workshop
“Let us accept once and for all that a truly unprecedented and advanced work is not that which uses superficial brilliance to make a temporary and sensational impact, or that which seeks to take one by surprise by means of ostentatious, acrobatic contortions, based on momentary ‘finds’, but only that which is justified by a continuing, living tradition, that which endures because it is put to the test again and again, within each new context, so that it expresses afresh inner experiences, secretly nurtured disciplines, forms that have truly been handled over and over again. What we may accept as reality cannot possibly be what we see ready-made around us, but much more what we attempt to visualize in a dream, all of us together and each one of us separately, the dream of a new - truly new - life, shaped like a poem.”
Kenneth Frampton, ‘Studies in Tectonic Culture’
There is one major conclusion that can be drawn: in contemporary architectural practice architectonic form no longer tends to be generated from single building materials. There are multiple parameters that define the architectonic shell on different levels. The strong need for energy efficient buildings leads us to multi-layered façades or skins that tend to break up the idea of material consistence into particular aspects. Although every single layer is solving a precise task perfectly there appears a significant lack of material expression in the whole arrangement In splitting up of formerly strongly unified categories in architecture, we perceive a loss in building culture that leads to the absence of rchitectural language.
The workshop will be an opportunity to study the tectonics of architecture in detail. By building prototypes and structures, the project will try to motivate the participant to experience the essential principles of constructing. Working with specific materials will raise questions concerning principles of statics, the generic character of the material and the possibilities of making a whole from the parts. The workshop includes project work in groups, sketching ideas and on-site construction in scale 1:1. Before the hands-on building, a thatcher will give a workshop on ‘working’ thatch and building with it. Student groups are invited to prepare a talk concerning the specific construction system they are adopting during the course of the workshop.
On the last day the executed projects will be presented and discussed with the teachers. The project will be documented in a post-workshop phase and will be published as a booklet. This booklet will illustrate the entire process in all its various aspects. The publication will also be available in digital format.

05/10 Faculty of Architecture to open permanent exhibition of famous chair collection
Faculty of Architecture to open permanent exhibition of famous chair collection
Paul Schnabel is to open the new permanent exhibition of TU Delft Faculty of Architecture’s famous chair collection on 5 October. The extensive collection, which is very important from a historical point of view, has now been given a place of honour in the Faculty of Architecture’s new premises in Julianalaan in Delft with financial support from the Sofa Foundation.
Saved from the fire
On 13 May 2008, the famous chair collection was saved from the fire that fully destroyed the original Faculty of Architecture under the watchful eye of former Minister of Education, Culture and Science Ronald Plasterk. For a long time after the fire there was no dedicated accommodation for these special chairs in the new BK City because there was insufficient space and money. The chairs were stored, hidden from public view, in the Rijksmuseum depot in Lelystad and the TU Delft depot in Rotterdamseweg.
The Sofa Foundation and the Faculty of Architecture
With the aid of the Sofa Foundation – whose objective is to promote the art of furniture – the Faculty of Architecture has now realised a new venue for displaying the chair collection in BK City. Architectural firm Kossmann & deJong delivered the design for the permanent exhibition set-up.
Study materials and permanent exhibition
The collection, consisting of more than three hundred chairs designed by Gerrit Rietveld and contemporary designers such as Marcel Wanders and Chris Kabel, will be presented in a large rack in which the chairs can be viewed at different levels. The permanent exhibition will be located in the hall near the Architecture library and will be on display for everyone the whole year round without charge. The chair collection will, furthermore, form a source of study material for TU Delft students and scientists.
Programme opening
16:00 Welcome by Dean Wytze Patijn;
16:10 Sofa’s last trick;
16:20 Opening ceremony conducted by Paul Schnabel;

08/10 TOO ACTIVE TO ACT?
TOO ACTIVE TO ACT?
As you may all know, coming friday will be a ‘big’ day for culture in the Netherlands. On Friday the 8th, there will be a national manifestation in The Hague against the proposed cuttings in cultural life in Holland by the new right-wing government. Students, artists, art-consulents, curators, art-critics, theatermakers, writers, musicians and art-lovers in general will come together to have their voice heard.
Apart from the question of the effects of such a manifestation, apart from the question of ‘whose side are you on’, and how to choose the best strategy to protest, I think this mass demonstration will be a great opportunity for students who signed in to my ‘Radicalism – Up my ass’ projectgroup, to go together to The Hague, and see how democracy nowadays works, how protests are being fuelled, and to what effects.
Are we too active to act, or not?
Practical stuff:
Startingpoint manifestation 11 o’clock, Plein, The Hague (next to the building of the Tweede Kamer)
Dresscode: black

21/10 PONY TALKS #2
Pony Talks #2
Soft data in Detroit, Preliminary findings in the new Wild West
The Pink Pony Express formed in 2009 to investigate the positive effects of population decline within the city of Detroit.
A multitude of external conditions paved the way for the slow breakdown of infrastructure in Detroit, ranging from the almost total extinction of public transportation to the closing of supermarkets. These deconstructed conditions demanded strategies to ensure survival in a place which has become the new Wild West.
Throughout this landscape, barely detected networks are emerging.
During the summer of 2010 The Pink Pony Express lived in Detroit; and set out to identify and map these evolving networks.
Please join us in the manege when we present a collection of projects plotting neighborhood revival, food distribution, opportunistic communication, and steam.
Pony Talks #2
Zachte data in Detroit, voorlopige uitkomsten in het nieuwe Wilde Westen
De Pink Pony Express is opgericht in 2009 om de positieve gevolgen van de bevolkingsdaling in Detroit te onderzoeken.
Een scala aan factoren heeft geleid tot de langzame teloorgang van Detroits infrastructuur, uiteenlopend van het bijna geheel verdwijnen van het openbaar vervoer tot het sluiten van supermarkten. De veranderde omstandigheden vragen nieuwe manieren om te overleven in een stad, die het nieuwe Wilde Westen is geworden.
In dit landschap komen tot nu toe nauwelijks blootgelegde netwerken aan de oppervlakte.
In de zomer van 2010 woonde de Pink Pony Express in Detroit om deze zich ontwikkelende netwerken te benoemen en in kaart te brengen.
U bent van harte uitgenodigd voor een lezing in de manege waar wij een selectie uit het onderzoek presenteren, van het in kaart brengen van verborgen buurtnetwerken, tot voedseldistributie, opportunistische berichtgeving en stoom.

WIEL ARETS ARCHITECTS: STILLS exhibition 18/12/10-13/02/11
After more than 25 years of continuous innovation, the time for an oeuvre exhibition on the work done by Wiel Arets Architects has come. With more than 250 projects, 20 monographs, a series of products in production, countless lectures and professorships given by Wiel Arets, and four new office publications in the works, the timing seems right.
STILLS
Wiel Arets Architects was founded in 1983 and has expanded to become a well-known name both nationally and internationally. It has its roots in the Southern Limburg region and has offices in Amsterdam, Maastricht and Zürich. STILLS shows the development of the oeuvre, shows the projects, expands upon the theoretical background and offers insight into the sources of inspiration and fascination of Wiel Arets himself. From his very early beginnings to his striking and unique personal vision on the future of urban development exemplified by the utopian ‘Zuidstad’ model.
Attention will also be paid to the product designs created by the multi-talented architectural office, including those created for Lensvelt, Gutzz, Quinze & Milan and Alessi. In six short documentaries, the architect leads the visitor through the cities of Tokyo, Zürich, Berlin and Milan and gives his vision of the future of architecture and urban construction.

BNI LECTURE ‘SPATIAL SENSES #1′ 17/03/11, 20:00, PAKHUIS DE ZWIJGER
The senses play a crucial role in the perception of the world around us. What we see, hear, smell, taste and feel determines how we experience the world. To what extent are interior designers making use of their perception of stimuli? Does good interior design stimulate the senses?
The first lecture in the series Spatial Senses organized by BNI, will be provided Rick Schifferstein, researcher in the field of sensory perception. In his lecture, he is looking at the role that the different senses play in the (interior) architecture.
