Matadero Madrid presenta Visita guiada, una intervención site specific que ha realizado Elena Alonso (Madrid, 1981) para el programa Abierto x Obras, que tiene lugar en la antigua cámara frigorífica del que fue el matadero de Legazpi. La propuesta de la artista parte de la idea de encontrarnos en una cámara aislada, donde no existe apenas comunicación entre el interior y el exterior, y del concepto de conservación, que ha estado ligado a este espacio a lo largo de su historia.

 

Tras sucesivas visitas a la nave, la artista comenzó a fijarse en toda la información visual que había quedado plasmada en paredes y techos. Lo que más llamó su atención fueron una serie de agujeros repartidos por la cubierta de las naves laterales, clausurados en la última reforma.

La intervención propone un recorrido por la nave utilizando como guía un pasamanos. Una línea trazada en el plano como un dibujo, que en esta ocasión toma forma escultórica. Su elaboración con distintos materiales, como madera, cemento, corcho, escayola pintada o cobre, pone de manifiesto el interés de la artista por la artesanía y el diseño, y ofrecen al visitante el deleite a la vista y al tacto de los materiales trabajados.

 

En la penumbra de la nave encontramos esta particular guía que nos lleva a descubrir una nueva perspectiva del espacio. Los agujeros han sido reabiertos, por ellos entra la luz y se vislumbra otra galería superior, antes oculta a la mirada del visitante.

 

En esta intervención artística hallamos un juego de contrastes, de impedimentos y de posibilidades. En cierta manera, recuerda a las cuevas visitables donde el recorrido nos va mostrando la particular geomorfología que conserva en su ambiente antes estático. En este caso, la cuidada elaboración del pasamanos contrasta con la brutalidad del espacio.

 

El pasamanos es a su vez una guía y una barrera, una línea que sortea y adorna la arquitectura de la nave. Una pieza que podemos ver y tocar, y que nos lleva a descubrir un lugar inesperado sobre nuestras cabezas, pero que solo podemos llegar a entrever desde la distancia.

 

Elena Alonso (Madrid, 1981) Licenciada en Bellas Artes y Máster en Arte, Creación e Investigación por la Universidad Complutense de Madrid, ha realizado también estudios en Suecia y Helsinki. Desarrolla su trabajo principalmente mediante el dibujo, relacionándolo con otras disciplinas como la arquitectura, la artesanía o el diseño, y prestando especial atención a las problemáticas vinculadas a la afectividad con el entorno. Ha expuesto de forma individual en el Museo ABC (El espacio alrededor, 2016); Espacio Valverde (Canto Blando, 2016; Composición de lugar, 2014; La tapadera, 2012); en la Sala de Arte Joven de la Comunidad de Madrid (2011); y en la Cable Factory de Helsinki (Paredes de piel, 2007).

 

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. Una sala de más de 800 metros cuadrados que todavía conserva su aspecto original y las huellas de un incendio sucedido en los años 90. Un espacio característico por su estructura diáfana de arcos volados y columnas. Desde 2007, Abierto x Obras ha acogido las intervenciones de artistas como Daniel Canogar, Jannis Kounnellis, Román Signer, Carlos Garaicoa, Fernando Sánchez Castillo, Jordi Colomer, Los Carpinteros, Cristina Lucas, Eugenio Ampudia o Darya von Berner, entre otros.

This intra-specific display is known interchangeably as the piping display (because of the loud calls that accompany it) and the cocked tail display. "All oystercatchers are predominantly monogamous and breed in summer. During the piping courtship display, two birds utter a single piped note while walking, running, or flying closely parallel, turning often. This display may be joined by nearby pairs for a piping "tournament" and is also used as a mate greeting or territorial display" (Grzimek's Animal Life Encyclopedia 2004).

The astonishing diversity of the exhibits ranges from the monumental to the ephemeral with works in metal and stone, with interactive work and performance and the Trail will be particularly unusual in the number of site-specific works. The idyllic village of Shoreham Kent, a gem just on the edge of London, is a beautiful place to visit just for itself and in June the gardens of all sizes, many on the river, will be at their best - visitors couldn't wish for more perfect surroundings in which to view sculpture. Most artists will be present to meet visitors during the trail and many will be giving talks. The Trail is curated by London Group President Susan Haire.

The inhabitants of [insert city] are invited to enter in a dark room where the characteristic sounds of their city life. Through the exploration of the space, they may find changes in the space-time continuum that will modify these sounds, transforming them [or not] in hypothetic sounds of the future of [insert city]. Could these [new] sounds draw their future?

Here's a specific table at the artist's alley I really enjoyed. Julia Lighty was the one holding court here, and in addition to prints of her amazing artwork, she was also selling stickers and pins of her chibi artwork. (Chibi is an anime art style where the character is cartoonishly exaggerated, typically with a large head and small body) I wound up getting six of her pins, and you can check out her work right here: www.ghostfire.net

(HGM 5092 M, Heisey Glass Museum, Newark, Ohio, USA)

-----------------------------------

"1404 Old Sandwich" is the designation for a specific glass product design made in Newark, Ohio by the Heisey Glass Company (1896 to 1957). Heisey glass designs are called "patterns". Pattern designations include a number (not necessarily consecutively numbered during the history of the glass factory) and a name. Some pattern names were given by the Heisey company, while others were given by Heisey glass researchers.

 

The source of silica for Heisey glass is apparently undocumented, but was possibly a sandstone deposit in the Glassrock area (Glenford & Chalfants area) of Perry County, Ohio (if anyone can provide verfication of this, please inform me). Quarries in the area targeted the Pennsylvanian-aged Massillon Sandstone (Pottsville Group) and processed it into glass sand suitable for glass making.

-----------------------------------

From Bredehoft (2004):

 

Amber: A pale shade of amber and also a deeper amber was produced on occasion from the 1920s on, primarily for the Fred Harvey Restaurants of the Santa Fe Railroad. In 1951, Heisey listed amber in their catalogs and called it Sultana. Sultana was a medium to deep amber.

-----------------------------------

From museum signage:

 

Augustus H. Heisey (1842-1922) emigrated from Germany with his family in 1843. They settled in Merrittown, Pennsylvania and after graduation from the Merrittown Academy, he worked for a short time in the printing business.

 

In 1861, he began his life-long career in the glass industry by taking a job as a clerk with the King Glass Company of Pittsburgh. After a stint in the Union Army, Heisey joined the Ripley Glass Company as a salesman. It was there that he earned his reputation of "the best glass salesman on the road".

 

In 1870, Heisey married Susan Duncan, daughter of George Duncan, then part-owner of the Ripley Company and later full owner, at which time he changed its name to George Duncan & Sons. A year later, he deeded a quarter interest to each of his two children. A few years after his death, A.H. Heisey and James Duncan became sole owners. In 1891, the company joined the U.S. Glass Company to escape its financial difficulties. Heisey was the commercial manager.

 

Heisey began to formulate plans for his own glass company in 1893. He chose Newark, Ohio because there was an abundance of natural gas nearby and, due to the efforts of the Newark Board of Trade, there was plenty of low cost labor available. Construction of the factory at 301 Oakwood Avenue began in 1895 and it opened in April of 1896 with one sixteen-pot furnace. In its heyday, the factory had three furnaces and employed nearly seven hundred people. There was a great demand for the fine glass and Heisey sold it all over the world.

 

The production in the early years was confined to pressed ware, in the style of imitation cut glass. The company also dealt extensively with hotel barware. By the late 1890s, Heisey revived the colonial patterns with flutes, scallops, and panels which had been so popular decades earlier. These were so well accepted that from that time on, at least one colonial line was made continuously until the factory closed.

 

A.H. Heisey's name appears on many different design patents including some when he was with George Duncan & Sons. Heisey patterns that he was named the designer include 1225 Plain Band, 305 Punty and Diamond Point, and 1776 Kalonyal.

 

Other innovations instituted by A.H. Heisey were the pioneering in advertising glassware in magazines nationally, starting as early as 1910 and the first glass company to make fancy pressed stems. That idea caught on quickly and most hand-wrought stemware is made in this manner, even now.

Site-Specific Dance by Meghan and Caitlyn Baylor. Photos by Jessie Crow Mermel

A site specific installation based in a disused power station along the Oka riverside. “ I walked around the site where I took pictures of objects I found.

I then painted the objects in two colours. White for the objects that were directly related to people’s lives (i.e.: boots, bottles, etc…), I chose this colours as an analogy to ghosts, past life traces, reminders of what was once. I painted red the objects that were part of machinery, as this colour is usually associated with danger (as in real physical danger to the human body but also as a warning sign of people’s dependency on industrialisation).

Once painted I used the objects for an installation on the site. Hanging up the white objects in the air above the red objects resting on the floor. This work intent to reflect on the decline of industries in the area, as well as on the re-use of empty building (as a reinsertion into our lives, a shifting of uses to accommodate society’s volatile economy)”

General Discovery: Destruction

Specific Perspective: Destruction of a Country, and it’s Trust

Media: Photo Transparency, Acrylic Paint, and Paper Mache

   

The central focus of this piece is the former president of the Republic of Taiwan, Chen Shui Bian. He has recently been charged for embezzlement, corruption and money laundering from the country during his time in power. In my opinion, he has destroyed the country’s economy and their trust. Chen Shui Bian was president for 2 terms, which means that there were people who believed in him, depended on him to lead and evolve Taiwan into a better nation. I did a photo transparency of Chen on the day he was handcuffed with his arms raised into the sky and a caption that he said, “Political Oppression! Long Live Taiwan!” Chen stole large sums of money from Taiwan for personal use but acting like everyone who dislikes him is making excuses to use against him. The irony is, I used paper mache to create bumpy texture and painted the colours of the Taiwanese flag, red and blue to give an effect of a demolished or destroyed flag, and he still acts like he did no wrong.

Questa area della città conserva una stratificazione storica e urbanistica estremamente ricca.

Andando a ritroso nel tempo, infatti, il giardino era stato sistemato a seguito delle demolizioni operate negli anni Trenta del secolo scorso per la realizzazione di Via dell’Impero, l’odierna via dei Fori Imperiali, inaugurata nel 1932. Le demolizioni avevano raso al suolo l’ottocentesco Palazzo Nicolini insieme ad altre strutture abitative e commerciali la cui costruzione, grazie ai documenti di archivio, si può far risalire al XVII secolo. Ancora prima, tra XIII e XIV secolo, erano in questa zona strutture connesse alla fortezza urbana della nobile famiglia dei Conti, che aveva il suo perno nella grande torre voluta da papa Innocenzo III (1198-1216). In epoca romana, qui sorgeva il Foro della Pace, fatto costruire dall’imperatore Vespasiano (69-79 d.C.) tra il 71 e il 75.

Nella conferenza, tenuta da personale della Sovrintendenza Capitolina che lavora nel cantiere, si illustreranno non solo gli aspetti scientifici delle indagini archeologiche ma anche quelli legati alle problematiche connesse alla progettazione e all’esecuzione di uno scavo collocato in pieno centro storico, in una città come Roma. Inoltre saranno illustrate le azioni messe in campo per la comunicazione e condivisione dell’andamento dei lavori con la collettività attraverso le reti social e le visite didattiche in cantiere.

Può accadere anche questo: che un cantiere archeologico si fermi per qualche tempo. È accaduto anche a Largo Corrado Ricci.

Al momento, infatti, le attività di scavo sono interrotte perché stiamo mettendo in sicurezza alcune parti dell'area di cantiere.

Per questo motivo sono sospese anche le visite guidate degli "Scavi in Comune" del mercoledì.

Rimanete però connessi alla nostra pagina: appena riprenderemo le attività di cantiere vi informeremo con nuovi post!"

City ​​Park

(more pictures you can see by clicking on the link at the end of the side!)

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.
