Idea projektu

The project titled 'Modern Art Museum Complex' is completed as a part of 6 months Thesis program. The research background tries to explore the reasons behind diminishing footfall in museum campuses and derive ways to make museum a more interactive form of Urban Architecture.

Different researches in the fields of psychology, behavioral studies, architecture and other fields have tried to define and explain the emotional impacts space has over a person. These studies show that different spaces evoke different emotions, yet it is still hard to tell exactly how architecture induces them.

My project aspires to increase the body of knowledge on the connection between geometry of space, visual perception and emotions by visual navigation in a virtual environment, in both qualitative and quantitative methods and thus revising the museum definition(in terms of what they cater) to a favorable design by which these centers can ‘make a difference for individuals’ and this should be an impact which is universally available and strictly related to the essential purposes of ‘inspiration, learning and enjoyment’ as in the current definition of a museum.

AIM-
Changing from institutions that were preoccupied with the past and obsessed with collections into museums where public can find opinions about present day, where human stories predominate.
'MAKE MUSEUMS MATTER'


Popis projektu

The project involves the designing of a Modern Art Museum Complex with all the required spaces like Gallery Block, restaurant block, educational and library block, auditorium block and an administrative block. The blocks are supported by an entrance plaza, pedestrian approaches, intermediate sitting spaces, amphitheater, spill out and open cafe, and floating galleries associated with each of the blocks at deck(upper) level to maintain the flow of art throughout the site. A multi-screen art theater in gallery block is another design intervention in my project.

The Gallery Block includes-

-Gallery on painting, sculpture, photography, contemporary fair, etc provided for temporary exhibits.
-Central green inner courtyard.
-Space ramps with exhibits for vertical transition to galleries.
-Gallery on second level named as nature gallery.

The Educational Block includes
-reading zones for library - public reading, mezzanine, open reading with surrounding water body and extended reading at higher floor above open reading.
-the upper floors of library are occupied by conservation labs, research rooms, lecture rooms and administrative floor for educational block.

Other than this, a basement gallery of about 4000 sq. m is designed as a Gallery on social issues being named as 'The Walk of Life'.The mound created at the center of site marks the entrance of this Gallery.
It has been designed as a permanent gallery with an attempt to create a social change agent. The idea was to derive a platform for modern art on a different level. Anything new to the existing is modern, so the dark sides of urban cities which are not been discussed openly gets a public exposure and this is where all space interpretation comes into play. It is further described as-
-A single walk covering various negative societal aspect.
-Emphasizing on social justice and building cohesive communities.
-Crafting stories (real life incidents).
-Video rooms (from the victim’s side).
-Human rights (boon or curse).
-Physiotherapy art tour.
-Instruments of torture.
-Public values.

The zones include-
Gallery on terrorism.
Gallery on Women issues.
Gallery on Animal Abuse.
Gallery on Environmental Issues.
Gallery on Racism.
Gallery on Human Rights, etc.
