Auftragsforschungsprojekt
"Scheinerfer" In the summer semester 2010 the Institute for Art and Design started ¿Scheinwerfer¿, a 3-year-cooperation with the housing company SEG in Vienna. Each summer semester students of the program ¿art project¿ will conceive temporary urban interventions and installations with light for the context of specific housing projects of the SEG with the goal to realize 1-2 projects. With ¿Scheinwerfer¿ the Institute of Art and Design directs their focus on Public Art to the question which role light has in the urban space as artistic media in relation to architecture. The students will have the chance to develop a project from the first concept, to detailled planning up to realization, being confronted with the diverse challenges of public/ urban space. The collaboration started with the Boarding House for international students (by Zaha Hadid) at the Spittelauer Lände/ Channel of the River Danube focussing on the qualities of the outdoor space and its special architectural design. Since the outdoor space and the bike and pedestrian pathways are characterized by movement and speed, one of the topics of the project was how to use light for creating a situation for slowing down and experiencing the spcae in a different way. The project was also conceived in relation to the new jetty which will add another significance to this part of the channel. The first project to be realized is "Fish on the Move" by Erim Gökalpay, in October 2010
