[space · New Architecture] the embodiment of time · Pinot Art Museum


↑ click the blue words above to pay attention to our [aerial view of the city], “Pino Art Museum” – Francois Pino & Tadao Ando’s architectural “time span” connected with time

.

The beginning of the “Pino Art Museum” dates back to a competition in 2000

.

At that time, Pino consortium wanted to build a modern art museum on saigan island on the Seine River in the western suburb of Paris

.

In the competition, Ando won with the idea of “spaceship floating on the water”【 Saigan] [model] However, due to the long preparation time of the project, it was forced to stop in the government’s infrastructure planning

.

The construction site had to turn to Venice, but the design was still undertaken by Ando

.

In 2015, the accidental meeting between Ando and Mr

.

Pino put the art museum project on the table again

.

After 20 years, the “Pino Art Museum” in Paris was finally opened to the public in May 2021【 Gallery entrance lobby] [schedule] again! I can’t remember why and when the project of “the story behind Ando’s readme project” was launched in Paris

.

Perhaps unspeakable fate is the joy of life

.

In 2015, I accidentally visited Mr

.

Francois Pinot in Paris, where I had not seen him for a long time

.

And I just had cancer surgery a year ago

.

In 2009, the gallbladder, bile duct and duodenum were completely removed in the first operation

.

This time, the spleen was removed to prevent recurrence

.

In the five years accompanied by the disease, the initial anxiety and fear have gradually disappeared

.

Work has become the source of my vitality

.

I also want to be closely connected with society through work

.

So as soon as he left the hospital, he plunged into work again

.

Half a year after returning to China, I have a plan to go to Paris on business

.

In addition to discussing the ongoing projects, I also want to meet with foreign friends who have always cared about me and let them have a good look at my health

.

So I suddenly decided to meet Mr

.

Pinot, who had persuaded me to come to Paris to recuperate【 Pino & Ando] after two operations, although he was quite weak

.

But I still treat my work as “serious” as always

.

I will decide to do it only after I have seen it in person and really feel “no problem”

.

However, the emergence of the Pinot Noir Art Museum caught me off guard

.

When I came back, the main creative team of the project had gathered together

.

It was on such an occasion that I didn’t think much and agreed on the spot with my intuition

.

Also very happy

.

Again! Challenge Paris【 The first time I worked with Mr

.

Pino was because I won the international competition of “Pino Modern Art Museum” on saigan Island, Paris in 2000

.

At that time, Mr

.

Pinot’s dream art museum should have a “dignified appearance”, and the interior was full of “peaceful and introspective space”, as well as “the characteristics of Gothic cathedral and Roman chapel”

.

Stimulated by these words, I was very excited to do the competition, and finally I was lucky to win【 After that, we will take advantage of the victory to pursue and deepen the implementation of the scheme

.

However, large-scale projects often have unimaginable resistance

.

Four years after the competition, although the design work has been completely completed and the old buildings in the base have been demolished, there was an unexpected situation – the project was forced to stop because of the planning problems of urban infrastructure construction

.

Even if he had to change the battlefield, he came to Venice to meet new challenges

.

In the nine years from Palazzo grass / teatrino to Punta della Dogana, two art galleries and a theater were built on the side of Venice Grand Canal Palazzo Grassi / teatrino “[aerial view of the city] [night view] [cloister] [atrium] the” Palazzo Grassi “art museum was designed from 2005 to 2006

.

The project is aimed at the transformation of a residence built in the second half of the 18th century

.

The old patio is endowed with the magnificent color of Ando and Huijing

.

From 2011 to 2013, it cooperated with the art museum again and added a “teatrino” (small theater) “Puntadella Dogana” [aerial view of the city] [exhibition hall] [exhibition hall] the “puntadella Dogana” Art Museum, designed from 2006 to 2009, was formerly the tax bureau for the navigation of the canal built in 1682

.

Ando builds a new display space by repairing the old brick walls and wooden beams and placing white walls and glass

.

This is actually a very happy and exciting process, but the dream of Paris Art Museum has been deeply buried in Mr

.

Pinot’s heart

.

This is the story behind the project

.

The completion of the Pinot Noir Art Museum in Paris has fulfilled one of our wishes and time has helped us realize our dreams【 West side appearance / exterior walls, doors and windows, dome have been repaired

.

The dome was built in 1813

.

This time, the decorative line between the dome glass and asbestos tile was repaired on a large scale to reshape the memorial of the roof.] Reincarnation as an art museum according to written records, the origin of the commercial exchange in central Paris can be traced back to the 16th century

.

The existing buildings are the products of the 18th century【 [texture] it was originally used as a Grain Exchange

.

After entering the 19th century, the round glass dome was added, and the function was transformed into a commodity exchange【 Bird’s-eye view of the city] when I was on-site investigation and survey, I once entered the Bureau of industrial economy in Paris

.

I was deeply impressed by the wonderful murals around the dome

.

I can’t help feeling that there is no need to add superfluous things to historical buildings

.

How to turn old buildings into art galleries is something I should seriously consider【 Mural dome] facing the rebirth of historical buildings, we respect the urban memory depicted on the walls

.

A new space is implanted inside, the old and the new coexist, and then arouse dialogue

.

Such a modern art place full of a sense of life and in line with the architectural atmosphere is ready to emerge

.

From the past to the present, and then to the future, this building is closely linked with time【 Plan] [indoor panorama / the height from the ground floor to the top of the dome is 36 meters

.

The glass of the dome was renovated on a large scale in 1998

.

This time, only the steel structure frame was renovated.]  【 [dome] the same transformation project is the “puntadella Dogana” made in Venice

.

It was a triangular building rising along the shape of the base

.

I buried a square exhibition hall in the center of the building as the core space【 Exhibition hall] the Pinot gallery is the same

.

A cylinder fitting the circular atrium is placed under the dome to try to reshape the internal space【 Indoor panorama / the newly placed concrete cylinder is nine meters high and about 29 meters in diameter.] A theater was placed under it

.

The outer wall of the new cylinder and the inner wall of the old building enclose an “internal street”

.

Both the street and the corridor on the cylinder are circular ambulatories, which makes it easier to see the murals around the dome【 The wall between the cylinder / existing wall and the circular tube is half a meter thick

.

It is cast through an iron plate with a bolt hole spacing of 260 mm as a mold.]【 Passage (at the end of the 18th century, the commercial space in the center of Paris will have glass windows facing the street)] [theater / 4.7m high] while retaining the existing structure of the old building, it is difficult to build new buildings in the center and even underground

.

From the perspective of cultural property protection, this requires a lot of discussion and repeated revision of the construction scheme.
