When Robert Cremean walked through the seemingly
endless corridors of the Vatican Museum in Rome, he was
struck not only by the vastness of the place but by the
number of sculptures it contains, many of which are
neutered by a fig leaf. To him, the sculptures in the museum
represented an enormous collection of mixed metaphors and
only a rare few met his definition of “transparency.” On the
fourth page of his Preparatory Study for VATICAN
CORRIDOR, A Non-Specific Autobiography he wrote:
The enclosure of one metaphor by another—one culture by
another—one time segment by another. “Paganism” is preserved
through forfeit of genitalia—neutered by a fig leaf. Miles of
historical artifacts enclosed within an historical artifact. And yet
there are a few presences that are not dead—not neutered. A few
glimpses— Man existing without metaphor. A few Transparencies.
Are these not worth the endless walk?
Within the concept “One man=all men,” VATICAN
CORRIDOR, A Non-Specific Autobiography was conceived as
an actual and metaphorical record of the journey through
the life of the artist and, by extension, a projection of the
possibilities we all share and may attain. Within both of the
facing walls are ten carved life-sized figures symbolically
conjoined by arches to form a “corridor of the self. ” As Robert
Cremean wrote:
Each arch represents three years and the Corridor of Self-Analysis
begins with my seventeenth year.
It was within the time span of the First Arch he declared
himself a sculptor.
Prior to acquiring the materials necessary for the actualizing
of the sculpture in wood, he spent two months creating
the detailed preparatory study for the entire work, a process
he had followed on only two prior occasions, one for
DONOR WITH CRUCIFIXION and the other, although more
suggestive than detailed, for HOMAGE TO PAUL APOSTLE.
From the first three pages of searching to the final pages of
resolution, the artist’s graphic description of the threedimensional
work provides us with the opportunity to read
the artist’s philosophical concepts for that specific work of
art and to understand how these concepts are interpreted
symbolically through the human figure. Since this is an
actual and a metaphorical autobiography, the Preparatory
Study for VATICAN CORRIDOR, A Non-Specific Autobiography
literarily addresses both.
Because each of the ten arches in the Preparatory Study
and in the completed sculpture spans a period of three years
in the artist’s life, the Tenth Arch was a projection five years
into the future and was at last updated twenty-two years
later in the writing in 1995, and with the publication by
Manuscript Press in 1996, of THE TENTH ARCH, the sculptural
Tenth Arch realized in the form of a book.
As the name implies, the sculpture is in the form of an
actual corridor. It measures eight feet tall, forty feet in length,
and with a width of ten feet. The facing walls of the corridor
are each formed by ten carved blocks of laminated sugar pine
planks for an overall measurement each of 8' x 24½" x 16".
The first figure of the Outer Wall, the “who,”is nearly fully
revealed in the round. But by the Tenth Arch, it has been transposed
into a negative, much like a waste-mold, only the egg
shape of the final transposition still in place. Block by block
and transposition after transposition, the three-dimensional
figure is displaced by a concavity as the wall that contained it
grows thicker and thicker. The reverse is true in each of the
corresponding figures and blocks of the Inner Wall. Each part
of the human figure is symbolic of a particular sense and/or
concept and with its transference the figure of the Inner Wall,
the “what,” becomes more complete.
Shown here is the final page of the manuscript which
lists the actual parts of the Anatomy of Transposition. It is
followed by the first four pages which serve both as an
explanation of the Preparatory Study and of the concept of
the entire sculpture. Each page of the original manuscript
measures 17" x 14".
A site-specific sonic event that’s both performance and installation, Sound Spandrel: Science Museum highlights peripheral and overlooked building spaces by exploring their musical attributes. The tonalities of heating and cool- ing systems, the buzz of light bulbs, the percussive pat- terns of footsteps and door slams, all inspire a live score sourced from the sounds of the building itself, and elec- tronically blended back into the space by the artists.
Performing musicians include: Charles Gillett, John Kannenberg, Bethany Lacktorin, Joe Nagel, and Davu Seru. Instrumentation features guitar, saxophone, zither, cymbal, bells, mbira, and digitally manipulated recordings of the actual space.

dSatellite is a site-specific architectural structure that extends the mission of DFLUX (www.dflux.org), a Detroit-based research studio and residency program, further into its community. DFLUX engages its local neighborhood and the general public with creative actions, research, and workshops. In so doing, they hope to reveal and create emergent and sustainable cottage industries. dSatellite was created with the intention of providing future DFLUX participants and local residents with an outpost to engage in various field research. Constructed with foraged building materials, dSatellite merges both the physical and conceptual characteristics of the DFLUX Residency site and a typical nature blind used by naturalists, scientists, photographers and hunters. dSatellite is currently deployed in a completely razed residential neighborhood of Detroit currently referred to as the "field" by local residents and "Renaissance Zone" by real estate developers. A dense urban forest, rich with wildlife, has grown there, only crumbling roads and alleys, debris piles, and public utilities remain as signs of past use.
dSatellite was created during a research residency at DFLUX in Detroit, MI in collaboration with Joseph G. Cruz (http://josephgcruz.com)

This is a photography test assigned by a potential employer. Very specific location, no tripod (handheld camera all the way), no flash or any fancy lighting equipment, no enhancement or editing software, Jpeg S format, minimum 50 shots complete within 2-3 hours. and submit every shot done, good and bad. These guys means business. With such specifications, they can evaluate equipment level, photography skill & understanding level, work habit/approach, attitude, speed, accuracy, composition skill and so on. In another words, they strip the participant bare and scrutinize.....but I love every moment of the challenge. Very tight time frame of 1 week to complete the job and upload it to Picasa for submitting. I do not have that class of equipment required to do this assignment right at the point of invitation. I spent 4 days deciding and shopping for that "right" camera body and lens. From past experiences, I knew it's going to be ISO3200 range, slow shutter speed between 1/8sec - 1/15sec, DOF restriction, noise level and needs light weight camera and very soft shutter to pull it off. My final choice is the Nikon Df body and 17-35mm f2.8 lens.
Took 138 shoots, most good and few bad to establish exposure fine tuning and preferred color temperatures.
The evening Sun was in compliance with the specific needs of illumination. The forces of gravity were performing their duties admirably giving the necessary balance required. All seemed to be working in accordance with the needs of the photographic set up til Luca decided it time to meet Leontocephaline. Luca is a fan of greeting items that can be steadily, steadily, steadily introduced to the eager grip of gravity that has open hands all ready to clutch and let go so as to show us the fullness of our falls. No Leontocephaline, or Lucas were hurt in the making of these images.

A further tour to Fourvière, Lyon, France for a specific visit of l'Antiquaille on October 20, 2022. I did also a new Kodak Tri-X film with my Zorki-4K camera and its Jupiter-8 1:2 f=50 mm normal lens.
The Zorki was loaded with the Kodak Tri-X (TX) exposed for 400 ISO using a Minolta Autometer III lightmeter fitted with a 10° viewfinder for selective measuring privileging the shadows. After exposure the film was processed at 20°C using Tetenal Ultrafin developer at dilution 1+10 for 9min.
Film initialization, October 20, 2022
69004 Lyon
France
After process the film was digitalized using a Sony A7 body and a Minolta Slide Duplicator with a Minolta Auto Bellows III with a lens Minolta Bellow Macro Rokkor 50mm f/3.5.
After several films, and the range finder adjusted, I found the Zorki-4K very pleasant to use. The camera is clearly very reliable and the film smoothly advanced and rewound. I equipped the lens with a FOCA UV-protection filter (Made in France) and the hood of my Focaflex. All views are presented either framed or full-size.
About the camera :
This camera was manufactured in 1977 by KMZ company ( Красногорский механический завод, Krasnogorskiy Mechanicheskiy Zavod) located in the Moscow region. KMZ also manufactured the ZENIT SLR's among many other productions. Zorki 4K was produced between 1972 to 1978 and the previous Zorki models were inspired by the Leica II since 1949. This model 'Made in USSR" is branded in roman characters, intentionally for exportation. Other Zorki 4K were also branded in Cyrillic as "Зоркий". Zorki 4K was sold basically either with this Jupiter-8 lens 1:2 f=50mm or the Industar lens1:3.5 f=50mm. The Jupiter-8 is a Sonnar Zeiss optical formula and fits to the Zorki body using the screwing M39 Leica mount.
Its was sold to me in August 2022 from Austria with its original ever-ready leather bag, a front lens cap and a small shade hood accessory Minolta D42KA. The shade hood and filter of my Focaflex also fit to the Jupiter lens (Leica standard 42 mm filter)

A specific angle of the Provinciehuis Antwerpen. The building, which was finished in 2018 and houses the provincial government of Antwerp, was designed by architect Xaveer De Geyter and contains 683 triangular windows. The building as a whole has a rather unique swerving design to it, which is quite a sight, but I was struck by the seemingly (but not quite) symmetrical feel of this particular shot.

Part of a site-specific installation produced for Constance ARI in April, 2009. Pictured: model of proposed redevelopment and notice.
The explanation of the supposed "redevelopment":
"To coincide with Inflight’s change of name and scope, the existing gallery building at 100 Goulburn St will be redeveloped. Based on current trends in museum architecture, the humble ARI will be transformed into a cutting edge monument to rival institutions such as the Guggenheim(s), the New Museum, the Tel Aviv Museum of Art and MONA. The redevelopment will retain the building’s existing white cubic base, but will have three additional levels on top, will include the neighbouring apartment in the same building, and convert the current carpark into a concrete-paved sculpture garden.
The art museum is no longer built in the image of a Greek temple. Instead, it strives to be unique in every way, from the toilets to the shiny coloured enamel exterior. However, the features designed to create a unique structure paradoxically tend to be common to most new museum buildings. These features include bizarre angles, curved or polished concrete, confusing layout, large entrance courtyards, water features, unlikely toilets, rust, and floating or unusual staircases. The institution will encourage site-specific artworks that respond to the architecture, with art invading the lift shafts, stairs and toilets. Importantly, the ‘visitor experience’ is enhanced through the provision of a gift shop, bar, restaurant and/or café. I have identified the most common of these features and have attempted to apply as many as possible to the new Constance ARI design, with the aim of providing Hobart with (another) ‘unique’ contemporary art museum."

Abierto x Obras. Matadero Madrid. Del 15 de septiembre 2017 al 8 de enero 2018.
Matadero Madrid presenta Los Afijos, una intervención site specific que ha realizado Juan López (Cantabria, 1979) para el programa Abierto x Obras, que tiene lugar en la antigua cámara frigorífica del que fue el matadero de Legazpi. La propuesta del artista plantea una intervención escultórica sobre la arquitectura como forma de resistencia contra lo establecido.
Los afijos son secuencias lingüísticas que se anteponen, se posponen o se insertan en una palabra para modificar su significado. Esta intervención, realizada específicamente para el programa Abierto x Obras de Matadero Madrid, trabaja con la relación entre escritura y arquitectura, entre signo y significado, entre escultura y collage. En un mundo hipercomunicado, poblado de signos creados por una élite intelectual y/o social, López juega con la posibilidad de alumbrar nuevos significados, nuevos espacios y otros regímenes de lo sensible, a partir de la creación de renovados signos, que además componen otros espacios. Así pues, se resignifica el discurso a la vez que se resignifica la arquitectura y por tanto nuestra manera de relacionarnos en este espacio.
Desde sus obras tempranas de intervención en el espacio urbano, el trabajo de Juan López busca desvelar otros modos de percibir el lugar como hipótesis para otras relaciones sociales fuera de la normatividad impuesta por el poder. En su obra, y mediante el recurso de la metáfora, quiebra y recompone los vínculos entre estos tres elementos: ciudad, subjetividad y poder.
Juan López ha expuesto en numerosas galerías, centros de arte, ferias y museos nacionales e internacionales como La Casa Encendida, MUSAC, Centro de Arte Laboral, Fundación Joan Miró, La Panera, O.K. Centrum Tokyo Wonder Site o Den Frie. Además, ha recibido diversos premios y becas como Hegnspl-Award Byens Hegn, Generaciones 2013, Premio ABC de Arte, Beca Fundación Marcelino Botín o Muestra de Arte INJUVE.
Abierto x Obras, en Matadero Madrid, es un programa de intervenciones site specific que invita a artistas a realizar una pieza de nueva producción incentivando el carácter experimental de la creación contemporánea a través de planteamientos que exploran la relación entre el arte y el lugar que lo acoge, la antigua cámara frigorífica del Matadero.

City Park Plan - Flower - Lake Ltd. © Vienna - specific
The Viennese City Park stretches from the park ring in the first district of Vienna up to the Haymarket in the third district of Vienna and is a of both tourists and local citizens well-visited park in Vienna. Its area is 65,000 m².
History
Yet in the Biedermeier the Water Glacis was a popular entertainment venue before the Karolinenstadttor (city gate). As part of the by the demolition of the city wall happened remodeling in the Ringstrasse, the project of a public park has been promoted on that site by the then Mayor of Vienna, Andreas Zelinka. This park was designed in the style of English gardens by the landscape painter Josef Selleny, the plannings were carried out by the city gardener Rudolf Siebeck. On 21th August 1862 the city park was opened as the first public park in Vienna.

"Wien" (Vienna River) in the city park
On the right bank of the river Wien (Wienfluss) was 1863 the so-called children's park, today mainly characterized by paved playgrounds and sports facilities, which over the Karoline bridge (Karolinenbrücke) (since 1918 Stadtparkbrücke), built in 1857, with the on the left bank situated town park is connected.
In the years 1903-1907 was in the parking area after the regulation a by Friedrich Ohmann and Josef Hackhofer planned Vienna river engineering structure with the river gate, pavilions and river banks built, which is one of the sights in the park.
In earlier times visitors of the park for the stay in placed chairs had to pay fees that were collected by the chair women (the so-called Sesselweiber).
Attractions in the park
Kursalon
The Kursalon
The water Glacis was a spa pavilion in which healing waters for drinking cures were served. To that affect, in the years 1865 to 1867 for the city park also the Kursalon was built according to plans of Johann Garben. This historicist imposing home in the style of the Italian Renaissanceg is located at the John street (Johannesgasse) and has a large terrace in the park:
After the opening on 8th May 1867 were originally forbidden pleasures. As this concept was not adopted, yet on 15th October in 1868 was taking place the first concert of Johann Strauss (son) whereupon became the Kursalon a popular dance and concert venue in particular at the time of the Strauss brothers. Today, the Kursalon after a renovation phase is again venue for balls, concerts, clubbings and conferences and houses a café-restaurant.

Monuments
With the gilded bronze statue of Johann Strauss (son) stands in the city park one of the best known and most frequently photographed monuments in Vienna. It was on 26th June 1921 unveiled and is framed of a marble relief by Edmund Hellmer. The gilding was removed in 1935 and in 1991 applied again. Other monuments there are, for example, of Franz Schubert, Franz Lehar and Robert Stolz and Hans Makart, the City Park is in monuments and sculptures the richest park in Vienna.
The dairy (Meierei)
The former milk bar was built as part of the Wienflußverbauung (Vienna river engineering structure) according to plans by Friedrich Ohmann and Josef Hackhofer from 1901 until 1903. After suffering heavy damages during the Second World War the building was extended in the reconstruction. Today is in the dairy after another annex a restaurant.
Planting
The planting of the city park is characterized by a great diversity of species and is, as possible, focused on a year-round flowering. Through an avenue to the ring road noise and exhaust gases are filtered. Some trees are protected, such as a ginkgo, a crown of thorns (Honeylocust, Christusdorn), cottonwood tree and Caucasian wingnut.

To say that a law protects against something is missing out a step or two and either introducing imprecision where it need not be introduced, or committing advertising.
laws tend to provide for penalties against people who transgress them. Whether the fear of that protects, or the exactment of them compensates the individual is a more complex matter.
In this specific case though there is pretty much general agreement that whistleblowers in the NHS, and I suspect in local government, as well as many firms are not protected by the law.
Odd that, that the people behaving illegally and in this context failing to look after the vulnerable might act badly and illegally against someone who causes them trouble. Well, less odd than some things.
It would be unfair to expect the Hemingway touch in these tuition materials I will accept.

Koi varieties are distinguished by coloration, patterning, and scalation. Some of the major colors are white, black, red, yellow, blue, and cream. While the possible colors are virtually limitless, breeders have identified and named a number of specific categories. The most notable category is Gosanke, which is made up of the Kohaku, Taisho Sanshoku, and Showa Sanshoku varieties.
New koi varieties are still being actively developed.[16] Ghost koi developed in the 1980s have become very popular in the United Kingdom; they are a hybrid of wild carp and Ogon koi, and are distinguished by their metallic scales. Butterfly koi (also known as longfin koi, or dragon carp), also developed in the 1980s, are notable for their long and flowing fins. They are hybrids of koi with Asian carp. Butterfly koi and ghost koi are considered by some to be not true nishikigoi.[citation needed]
The major named varieties include:
Kōhaku (紅白) is a white-skinned koi, with large red markings on the top. The name means "red and white"; kohaku was the first ornamental variety to be established in Japan (late 19th century).
Taishō Sanshoku (or Taisho Sanke) (大正三色) is very similar to the kohaku, except for the addition of small black markings called sumi (墨). This variety was first exhibited in 1914 by the koi breeder Gonzo Hiroi, during the reign of the Taisho Emperor.[citation needed] In America, the name is often abbreviated to just "Sanke". The kanji, 三色, may be read as either sanshoku or as sanke (from its earlier name 三毛).
Shōwa Sanshoku (or Showa Sanke) (昭和三色) is a black koi with red (hi 緋) and white (shiroji 白地) markings. The first Showa Sanke was exhibited in 1927, during the reign of the Showa Emperor. In America, the name is often abbreviated to just "Showa". The amount of shiroji on Showa Sanke has increased in modern times (Kindai Showa 近代昭和), to the point that it can be difficult to distinguish from Taisho Sanke. The kanji, 三色, may be read as either sanshoku or as sanke.
Tanchō (丹頂) is any koi with a solitary red patch on its head. The fish may be a Tancho Showa, Tancho Sanke, or even Tancho Goshiki. It is named for the Japanese red-crowned crane (Grus japonensis), which also has a red spot on its head.
Chagoi (茶鯉), "tea-colored", this koi can range in color from pale olive-drab green or brown to copper or bronze and more recently, darker, subdued orange shades. Famous for its docile, friendly personality and large size, it is considered a sign of good luck among koi keepers.
Asagi (浅黄) koi is light blue above and usually red below, but also occasionally pale yellow or cream, generally below the lateral line and on the cheeks. The Japanese name means pale greenish-blue, spring onion color, or indigo.
Utsurimono (写り物) is a black koi with white, red, or yellow markings, in a zebra color pattern. The oldest attested form is the yellow form, called "black and yellow markings" (黒黄斑
Kuro ki madara) in the 19th century, but renamed Ki Utsuri (黄写り) by Elizaburo Hoshino, an early 20th-century koi breeder. The red and white versions are called Hi Utsuri (緋写り) and
Shiro Utsuri (白写り) (piebald color morph), respectively. The word utsuri means to print (the black markings are reminiscent of ink stains). Genetically, it is the same as Showa, but lacking either red pigment (Shiro Utsuri) or white pigment (Hi Utsuri/Ki Utsuri).
Bekko (べっ甲) is a white-, red-, or yellow-skinned koi with black markings sumi (墨). The Japanese name means "tortoise shell", and is commonly written as べっ甲. The white, red, and yellow varieties are called Shiro Bekko (白), Aka Bekko (赤) and Ki Bekko (黄), respectively. It may be confused with the Utsuri.
Goshiki (五色) is a dark koi with red (Kohaku style) hi pattern. The Japanese name means "five colors". It appears similar to an Asagi, with little or no hi below the lateral line and a Kohaku Hi pattern over reticulated (fishnet pattern) scales. The base color can range from nearly black to very pale, sky blue.
'Shūsui (秋翠) means "autumn green"; the Shūsui was created in 1910 by Yoshigoro Akiyama(秋山 吉五郎, by crossing Japanese Asagi with German mirror carp.[citation needed] The fish has no scales, except for a single line of large mirror scales dorsally, extending from head to tail. The most common type of Shūsui has a pale, sky-blue/gray color above the lateral line and red or orange (and very, very rarely bright yellow) below the lateral line and on the cheeks.
Kinginrin (金銀鱗) is a koi with metallic (glittering, metal-flake-appearing) scales. The name translates into English as "gold and silver scales"; it is often abbreviated to Ginrin. Ginrin versions of almost all other varieties of koi occur, and they are fashionable. Their sparkling, glittering scales contrast to the smooth, even, metallic skin and scales seen in the Ogon varieties. Recently, these characteristics have been combined to create the new ginrin Ogon varieties.
Kawarimono (変わり物) is a "catch-all" term for koi that cannot be put into one of the other categories. This is a competition category, and many new varieties of koi compete in this one category. It is also known as kawarigoi (変わり鯉).[citation needed]
Ōgon (黄金) is a metallic koi of one color only (hikarimono 光者). The most commonly encountered colors are gold, platinum, and orange. Cream specimens are very rare. Ogon compete in the Kawarimono category and the Japanese name means "gold". The variety was created by Sawata Aoki in 1946 from wild carp he caught in 1921.
Kumonryū (九紋竜)' (literally "nine tattooed dragons" is a black doitsu-scaled fish with curling white markings. The patterns are thought to be reminiscent of Japanese ink paintings of dragons. They famously change color with the seasons.[citation needed] Kumonryu compete in the Kawarimono category.
Ochiba (落葉) is a light blue/gray koi with copper, bronze, or yellow (Kohaku-style) pattern, reminiscent of autumn leaves on water. The Japanese name means "fallen leaves".
Koromo (衣) is a white fish with a Kohaku-style pattern with blue or black-edged scales only over the hi pattern. This variety first arose in the 1950s as a cross between a Kohaku and an Asagi.[citation needed] The most commonly encountered Koromo is an Ai Goromo, which is colored like a Kohaku, except each of the scales within the red patches has a blue or black edge to it. Less common is the Budo-Goromo, which has a darker (burgundy) hi overlay that gives it the appearance of bunches of grapes. Very rarely seen is the Tsumi-Goromo, which is similar to Budo-Goromo, but the hi pattern is such a dark burgundy that it appears nearly black.
Hikari-moyomono (光模樣者) is a koi with colored markings over a metallic base or in two metallic colors.
Kikokuryū (輝黒竜, literally "sparkle" or "glitter black dragon") is a metallic-skinned version of the Kumonryu.
Kin-Kikokuryū (金輝黒竜, literally "gold sparkle black dragon" or "gold glitter black dragon") is a metallic-skinned version of the Kumonryu with a Kohaku-style hi pattern developed by Mr. Seiki Igarashi of Ojiya City. At least six different genetic subvarieties of this general variety are seen.
Ghost koi (人面魚、じんめんぎょ), a hybrid of Ogon and wild carp with metallic scales, is considered by some to be not nishikigoi.
Butterfly koi (鰭長錦鯉、ひれながにしきごい) is a hybrid of koi and Asian carp with long flowing fins. Various colorations depend on the koi stock used to cross. It also is considered by some to not be nishikigoi.
Doitsu-goi (ドイツ鯉) originated by crossbreeding numerous different established varieties with "scaleless" German carp (generally, fish with only a single line of scales along each side of the dorsal fin). Also written as 独逸鯉, four main types of
Doitsu scale patterns exist. The most common type (referred to above) has a row of scales beginning at the front of the dorsal fin and ending at the end of the dorsal fin (along both sides of the fin). The second type has a row of scales beginning where the head meets the shoulder and running the entire length of the fish (along both sides). The third type is the same as the second, with the addition of a line of (often quite large) scales running along the lateral line (along the side) of the fish, also referred to as "mirror koi". The fourth (and rarest) type is referred to as "armor koi" and is completely (or nearly) covered with very large scales that resemble plates of armor. It also is called Kagami-goi (鏡鯉、カガミゴイ), or mirror carp (ミラーカープ).
Thanks, Wikipedia, for an amazing amount of knowledge!
A recently described species known only from three very specific rocky habitats. These are north of Grose River, in the NE of Wollemi NP, and on Linden Ridge. And now the count is four. I stumbled across a whole new populatioh south of the Grose River.
I had no idea what this plant was when I first saw it, and referred it on the NSW Plants Brains Trust for ID. The verdict was a total surprise. Count roughly 80+. Many are regrowing after fire. Two mature trailing plants are more than 1m long. A remarkable outcome for this new location.
reOrder: An Architectural Environment by Situ Studio
A space-altering, site-specific architectural installation created by Situ Studio, a Brooklyn-based creative practice specializing in design and fabrication, will inaugurate the first phase of the Brooklyn Museum’s project for the 10,000-square-foot colonnaded hall on the first floor. The installation, reOrder, reimagines the classically ordered space to serve as a hub—a place for Museum visitors to congregate, relax, view temporary exhibitions, lectures, and, occasionally, see a performance. Situ Studio’s design consists of a series of stretched fabric canopies and integrated furnishings that swell, expand, and augment the profile of the existing monumental columns.
This project will be the first installation in the Ennead Architects–designed renovation of the Great Hall, which was built in the early twentieth century as a part of the original McKim, Mead & White architecture. The space will include four freestanding walls reaching almost to the ceiling that will separate a central gallery from a perimeter circulation path. The installation will embrace the unique details of McKim, Mead & White’s iconic design with the goal of transforming the scale of the hall and creating a series of spaces that alternate between the colossal and the intimate.
Situ Studio was founded in 2005 in Brooklyn, New York. Concentrating on research, design, and fabrication, the firm works at the intersection of architecture and a variety of other disciplines to engage a wide range of spatial projects.

Attractions in the park
Kursalon
The Kursalon
The water Glacis was a spa pavilion in which healing waters for drinking cures were served. To that affect, in the years 1865 to 1867 for the city park also the Kursalon was built according to plans of Johann Garben. This historicist imposing home in the style of the Italian Renaissanceg is located at the John street (Johannesgasse) and has a large terrace in the park:
After the opening on 8th May 1867 were originally forbidden pleasures. As this concept was not adopted, yet on 15th October in 1868 was taking place the first concert of Johann Strauss (son) whereupon became the Kursalon a popular dance and concert venue in particular at the time of the Strauss brothers. Today, the Kursalon after a renovation phase is again venue for balls, concerts, clubbings and conferences and houses a café-restaurant.
