Assemble y el artista Simon Terrill son los autores de esta exposición - que ocupa toda la Architecture Gallery de la sede del Royal Institute of British Architects - que anima a los visitantes a contemplar la materialidad y el lenguaje visual de enclaves arquitectónicos brutalistas actualmente desaparecidos a través de un paisaje envolvente y conceptual. Aunque se discute mucho actualmente sobre el valor de los edificios residenciales de esta época, la exposición se centra en las áreas de juego que se encuentran a los pies de estas estructuras, que ofrecen una renovada comprensión y crítica de los diseños y las intenciones originales de los arquitectos .
Part sculpture, part architectural installation, all play. The Brutalist Playground is a new commission by Turner Prize nominees. Assemble and artist Simon Terrill, exploring post-war design for play.
Occupying the entire Architecture Gallery at RIBA, it encourages visitors to look at the materiality and visual language of now lost Brutalist landscapes in new ways through an immersive and conceptual landscape. Although the value of Brutalist residential buildings today is much debated, this exhibition shifts the focus to the equally important playgrounds found at the feet of these structures, offering a renewed understanding and critique of the architects’ original designs and intentions.
