Filho do poeta russo Arseni Tarkovski, autor de muitos dos poemas recitados em seus filmes, nasceu em 1932. Tendo se formado em Geologia, abandona a profissão para se dedicar ao cinema, iniciando sua carreira ao entrar no Instituto Central de Cinema da URSS (VGKI) em 1956. Em 1960 dirige seu primeiro filme um média metragem de 44 minutos (O Rolo Compressor e O Violinista) e em 1962 ganha o Leão de Ouro do Festival de Veneza com o seu segundo trabalho, A Infância de Ivan.

Com o ambicioso filme Andrey Rublev (1966), sobre a vida do famoso pintor russo, o realizador apresenta características que formariam a base principal de seu cinema: intimista, conciso e com boa atenção para com os detalhes.

Em 1972 lança Solaris, um complexo filme misto ficção científica e drama existencial, com discretas citações do filme 2001: Uma odisséia no espaço, de Stanley Kubrick. Esse filme é considerado por muitos seu melhor trabalho.

Seus filmes posteriores, O espelho (1974), filme com altos traços autobiográficos e principalmente Stalker (1979), apesar de apresentarem a boa qualidade do diretor, são prejudicados pela forte censura existente na URSS.

Desiludido com o controle exercido sobre o seu trabalho, Tarkovski decide sair da URSS em 1983. Nesse mesmo ano lança Nostalgia. Ainda, depois de Nostalgia, filmaria O Sacrifício.

De personalidade irritadiça e muitas vezes angustiada, o realizador sempre recusou qualquer tipo de influência e controle sobre o seu trabalho. Sua obra é marcada por um profundo sentido espiritual, e seu compromisso com a arte ficou marcado em seu livro Esculpir o Tempo, obra essencial a todos os amantes da sétima arte.

Morreu em Paris em consequência de um câncer no pulmão em 1986.

Andrei Tarkovsky

A landmark work of institutional critique, Hans Haacke’s Shapolsky et al Manhattan Real Estate Holdings, A Real Time Social System as of May 1, 1971 chronicles the fraudulent activities of one of New York City’s largest slumlords over the course of two decades. The work comprises 146 photographs of Manhattan apartment buildings, mostly tenements; maps of Harlem and the Lower East Side; photographs and charts documenting real estate transactions; and texts with information about the location, ownership structure, and financial histories of the buildings. Haacke culled all of his data from the public record, adapting a neutral presentational style that resembles various contemporaneous projects in Conceptual art. Shapolsky et al. was to be part of the artist’s solo exhibition at the Guggenheim Museum in the spring of 1971, but the show was cancelled six weeks before its scheduled opening.

Issey Miyake explored the natural roots of paper for its Spring/Summer 2025 runway during Paris Fashion Week, a show entitled “The Beauty of Paper.”

The show notes accompanying the experimental womenswear collection were given to attendees on a piece of washi, a type of traditional Japanese paper made from shrubs and bushes. The stools they sat on, meanwhile, were constructed of out cylinders of compressed sheets of paper, which the brand says is a byproduct of Issey Miyake’s pleat-making technology.

Washi was once, however, used as material for clothing. Under the creative direction of Satoshi Kondo and his design team, the garments sought to pay homage to washi and the greater history of papermaking.

Serpentine Gallery Pavilion 2006 by Rem Koolhaas and Cecil Balmond with Arup

Architect Rem Koolhaas and innovative structural designer Cecil Balmond co-designed the 2006 Serpentine Gallery Pavilion.

The centrepiece of Koolhaas and Balmond’s design for the 2006 Serpentine Gallery Pavilion was a spectacular ovoid-shaped inflatable canopy that floated above the Gallery’s lawn. Made from translucent material, the structure was illuminated from within at night. The canopy was raised into the air or lowered to cover the amphitheatre below according to the weather. The walled enclosure below the canopy functioned as a café and forum for daily televised and recorded public programmes, including live talks and film screenings in the Time Out Park Nights and the Serpentine Gallery programme. Highlights included two 24-hour interview marathons(convened by Koolhaas and Hans-Ulrich Obrist) with leading politicians, architects, philosophers, writers, artists, film-makers and economists exposing the hidden and invisible layers of London.

Alberto Burri  (1915, Italie - 1995, France)

"For me, painting is freedom that must be consolidated, vigilantly guarded." (Burri)

From 1961 onwards, Alberto Burri used a new material: burnt plastic. He carved away at the material using heat to make it malleable. The use of combustion caused holes to form on the surface, weakening the plastic. Transparent and two­ sided, Plastica renews the formal vocabulary of gestural abstraction. Burri's work, which was based on the use of raw materials, also influenced the Arte Povera movement.

In the late Sixties Bill Bollinger was among the most prominent representatives of Process Art. His sculptural work, often ephemeral and space-oriented is made of industrial material, such as aluminium, ropes, elastic tubes, grids, wires or graphite dust. Legendary shows as «When Attitudes become Form» by Harald Szeemann or «Anti-Illusion: Procedures/Materials» in the Whitney Museum in New York exhibited Bollingers opus. After retiring from the art world in New York in the Seventies, Bill Bollingers’ oeuvre was buried in oblivion and got rediscovered recently as a protruding artistic position.

A mobile room for images, a journey of discoveries

The “mobile room” is a carton, built of light material, which is covered with a number of possibilities to look into, Kind of windows. This enables you to watch endlessly different atmospheres in the inner room.

The viewer becomes a voyager moves the object in his hands, borderless in the space surrounding, and observes, how inside´s vision gets transformed by this motion.

By this handling the actor is changing from a just watcher to the author of what´s seen inside. Just remembering’s of this imaginations, highly individual, will stay far from getting described or pictured.  

The beginning of a discovery, no end in sight.

A variety to this purpose, is to offer larger objects, easily used by two persons at the same time, with the heed to for them to communicate the way of similar movements for fluidly Changes.

Peter Saville is a graphic designer known predominantly for his edgy work for the music and fashion industries. Saville’s career began in the late 1970s in Manchester, England, at the nascent Factory Records, an independent label that went on to establish rock bands like Joy Division and New Order. Over the decades, his influences have ranged from mid-century modernist painting and classical art to stock imagery and his own old designs. Saville based the album cover for New Order’s Technique (1989) on the work of postwar artist Yves Klein. Although Saville’s designs help sell music and clothes, he is a harsh critic of consumerism and brand obsession. He has been the creative director of his native city of Manchester since 2004.

Kazuyo Sejima: The Art of Disappearance in Architecture In this video, we delve into the fascinating world of Kazuyo Sejima’s architecture, exploring her unique approach to transparency and lightness. Discover how Sejima’s innovative designs challenge conventional architectural norms, creating structures that often seem to disappear into their surroundings. We examine her celebrated projects, including the Serpentine Pavilion and the Rolex Learning Center, to understand how her use of thin facades and ethereal forms creates a sense of illusion and elegance. Join us as we explore the visual and emotional impact of Sejima’s work and discuss her contributions to contemporary architecture. Special thanks to Luis Fernández Galiano for the insightful Spanish presentation, which provided a deep understanding of Sejima’s architectural approach.

Built at the mouth of a terminal basin rich in minerals and nearly devoid of life, ​Spiral Jetty ​is a testament to Smithson’s fascination with entropy. Its precarious location lends itself to the structure’s inevitable disintegration, yet its impressive size and deliberate shape command the surrounding landscape. Constructed from 6,650 tons of rock and earth, the spiral continuously changes form as nature, industry, and time take effect.

In 1999 Nancy Holt and the Estate of Robert Smithson donated the earthwork to Dia Art Foundation, who continue as stewards.
