Screen Air Pavilion

“The Screen Air Pavilion” is a temporary architecture of social nature commissioned by Paz Ponce (founder and artistic director of insurgencias.net) to architects Tomás García de la Huerta & Xaviera Gleixner from GA Estudio (Chile), in collaboration with designer Erik Vögler and architect Maxie Schneider from Popticum Collective (Berlin). It was born from the need of hosting a public arts program produced by Agora Collective, an arts organization who had recently lost its project space in Berlin; in the context of struggle to secure spaces in the city for the production and presentation of experimental art. Driven by the collaborative desire to ‘open spaces of possibility’, the architects responded to these precarious circumstances creating a pavilion sustained by air, presenting architecture as a tool of resistance, sensitive to social issues and serving the minorities.

Through its structural qualities like mobility and extreme lightness, this soft architecture aimed to break the hegemony towards an open-source and instantaneous urbanism, with an added symbolic value: “a living building is proposed, interactive, fragile in its appearance and strong in its capacity”.

Between September 12th - 14th 2019, in the open courtyard of Ufer_studios in Berlin-Wedding, the Screen Air Pavilion embraced the activities of “Ecologies of Protest” - a public program to share artist-led research projects from Latin American artists in Berlin dealing with environmental activism. The project was supported by the Berlin Senate Deparment for Culture and Europe under the funding program “Fellowship Weltoffenes Berlin”.

The pavilion was assembled during a two day participatory workshop, “Subversive architectures”, facilitated by GA Estudio & POPTICUM, expanding into a shared pedagogical space with invited artists: Andressa Cantergiani (BR), Paula Elion (IL), Manuela García Aldana (CO), Melanie Rivera (PR), Roberta Vaz (BR) and Gabriel Vallecillo (HO).

Once built, under the two domes of this breathing sculpture, the pavilion hosted the first video mapping artwork projected into soft architecture (The River Told Me So, by Honduras artist Gabriel Vallecillo), a theatre screening (‘Papakuna - agro musical theater piece from Yama Collective, Ecuador), a community lunch hosted by Paz Ponce, fermentation chicha-bar hosted by Manuela García Aldana and a panel discussion moderated by Paz Guevara with invited artists Michelle-Marie Letelier (Chile), Julia Mensch (Argentina) and Gabriel Vallecillo Márquez (Honduras).

CARE INSTRUCTIONS

The pavilion is free.

The condition for usage is that one member of the team is always present to coordinate its installation (please plan accordingly how to finance the transport of the pavilion - located in Berlin, and the mobility of the team person who will accompany you in the set up). If you want to borrow the inflators to fill the Pavilion with air and the sand boxes to keep it standing, please offer a symbolic amount of money to subsidize the costs.

The pavilion is made of plastic, assembled by hand and it consists of two pieces: a black floor which extends to the entrance and two white domes. If the plastic gets broken, please fix the cracks with a similar plastic and invisible tape. It will work.

The material of the pavilion filters the light: projections can be seen from inside and outside the structure. The pavilion can protect you from the rain, but some water may pour in from the floor. The floor is ver thin, provide some pillows for your community if you plan a long event.

The pavilion is sensitive to wind, you can never forget you are inside this structure, you have to keep an eye on it at all times. You can engage your audience and distribute the wait of the visitors inside the pavilion to regulate the amount of air that is inside the pavilion, as well as the weights needed to keep it standing. In case of storm, do not use the Pavilion, it will suffer.

By take down please clean the pavilion and fold it with care.

The credits of the architects, designers, collaborators and producers must be always communicated in the event you are hosting.

Please send us the details & documentation of your event so we can update the curriculum and facebook fan page of the “Screen Air Pavilion”. We will also support you communicating your event through our channels.
