We have to admit that facing a project that mixes Schmidt Hammer Lassen Architects and american artist James Turrell gives your job an extra responsibility. You have to verify that there is a right alignment between your imagery and James distinctive Ganzfelds and installations.
We hope we made justice to him and also to our good friends at Schmidt Hammer Lassen.
They are collaborating together to design the new extension to the ARoS Aarhus art museum in Denmark. The project, named ‘the next level’ will feature a 1,200 sqm subterranean gallery and two semi-subterranean art installations by Turrell – ‘the sphere’ and ‘the dome’ – all of which would be integrated into the museum’s existing building fabric.
