Syndicate: Architectural Masterclass - A Slice of a Football Stadium |
15 ? 28 August 1999 4th International NAI Summer Masterclass for students and young architects The weight of the image - The stadium Tutors: Lars Spuybroek (NOX, Rotterdam), Bob Lang (Ove Arup & Partners, London) In the architecture of the (football) stadium three distinct guiding forces intertwine: the enormously powerful appeal of the image, the programmatic energy of the mass of fans, and the structural strength of the construction. As a fusion of image, crowds, and structure, the stadium is rivalled only by the Gothic Cathedral in the history of architecture. The 4th International Summer Masterclass at the Netherlands Architecture Institute will focus on the design of 'a slice of stadium' for Euro2000, the European Football Championships organized in the year 2000 by Holland and Belgium. Next year, this slice will actually be built beside the NAI in the Museumpark to provide a spectacular facility for watching the matches via a LIVE image on a super video screen. http://www.nai.nl/actueel/masterclass99_e.html ------Syndicate mailinglist-------------------- Syndicate network for media culture and media art information and archive: http://www.v2.nl/east/ to unsubscribe, write to <syndicate-request@aec.at> in the body of the msg: unsubscribe your@email.adress
