设计中国奥林匹克体育馆——鸟巢的Herzog & De Meuron建筑事务所新近完成了巴塞尔Schaulager美术馆的设计。对于Schaulager艺术馆的概念,Jacques Herzog和他的搭档Pierre de Meuron一致觉得这个美术馆和周边的建筑性质应该是一样的,因为艺术馆建筑基地周边是工业区,有很多大型仓库,因此也就有了Schaulager美术馆,只不过里面“储藏”的东西更贵重而已,而Schaulager在德文里正是“艺术品仓库”的意思。 Herzog & De Meuron Architects, Designing China’s Olympic Stadium - Bird’s Nest, recently completed the design of the Schaulager Art Basel. For Schaulager’s concept, Jacques Herzog and his partner Pierre de Meuron agree that the nature of the building and the surrounding buildings should be the same, as the building is surrounded by an industrial estate and has many large warehouses and therefore Schaulager Art Museum, but inside “storage ” things more expensive, and Schaulager in German is the meaning of “art warehouse ”.
