註釋Andrea Branzi is one of Italy's leading architects and designers. 'The installations presented at the Fondation Cartier have evolved out one of the designer's major preoccupations: how may we reinvent architecture following its demise? He argues that modern architecture, with its emphasis on closed form and definitive function, has not only lost touch with the "intimate needs and behaviour of users" but also with the general needs of a "fluid"society based on electronics and services. Former member of the legendary radical architecture group Archizoom and founding father of the Domus Academy in Milan, Andrea Branzi has created two large-scale installations specifically for the spaces of the Fondation Cartier. Weaving together materials such as hemp and bamboo with glass and metal, the artist has created fragile, delicate and poetic architectural structures that reconcile the natural with the manmade.
