Strasbourg Modern and Contemporary Art Museum (MAMCS)
Tinted film, modules

This project is in two parts:
The geometrically shaped modules:

• Cubes, cylinders, cubes, pyramids or arches are arranged symmetrically in the room ranging to over 6 meters high. The room is divided into two parts, as the first half of the room is purely white, while the other half of the rooms shapes are coated in various vibrant colors. On the inside of the arches of the shape are Buren’s iconic black and white alternating 8.7 cm wide stripes. Each of these internally striped modules are lined up so that at the right angle and perspective they give the effect of a viewfinder or telescope.

Glass:

• The outer facade of the museum was given a stained glass effect through the use tinted film and applied directly to the glass of the 25 meter high windows. This altered the appearance and perspective of the museums presence on the outside and the inside. As the lighting and weather changed, each tinted film would cast reflections through the glass that would change the color of the walls, ceiling an floors of the museum creating a temporary new and radiant environment.
