Uwe R. Brückner Libros

A pioneer of scenography—its project and methods. Current trends in museum and exhibition design. More than 825 photos, graphics and plans. Atelier Brckner 2002-2010: Make Spaces Talk is the handbook on scenography edited by a pioneer of scenography. Guided by its philosophy "form follows content" Atelier Bruckner sees its mission as the consistent generation of spatial concepts from the content they are engaged to present—and they have been awarded many prizes for the work they have done. This book is an introduction to the history, contents, methods, instruments and making process of this relatively young design discipline.At the same time, this book shows more than 60 international projects of Atelier Bruckner, spanning the time from 2002 to 2010. It presents concepts for permanent exhibitions such as the LWL-Museum for Archaeology in Herne, architecture created for the BMW Museum in Munich or the Deutsche Borse in Frankfurt, artistic multimedia installations such as the "Viv(r) les frontiers" pavilion at Swiss Expo 02 or media architecture for the African Pavilion at Expo 2008 in Saragossa and the State Grid Pavilion at Expo 2010 in Shanghai.

The Dual System Deutschland, a company which is responsible for the reuse and recycling of packaging in Germany commissioned the Stuttgart firm Atelier Brückner to create a pavilion at the EXPO2002 which would reflect the company's vision of combining the product cycle with the environment and use of resources in a responsible way. The journey through this cycle is represented visually through the architecture and staging of the pavilion. Living plants, real objects, information, light and sound are brought together and provide an exciting backdrop for the dramatic highlight-a 25m high tornado which was generated every hour. This book shows primarily creative process leading to the final design and architecture of the Cyclebowl. Enhanced with technical details of the innovative facades, the publication is a fascinating documentation of architecture as a means of conveying ideas.
