Architecture in Los Angeles

 A presentation and discussion.

By Kimberli meyer, Director of MAK Center for Art and Architecture, Los Angeles (http://www.makcenter.org).

Wednesday, August 19, at 18:00-19:00 pm

At Serambi Salihara, Komunitas Salihara, Jalan Salihara, 16, Pejaten, South Jakarta.

Entry is free. Please invite your friends.

http://www.artscapemedia.com/podcasts/archives/2006/11/kimberli_meyer.html

Kimberli Meyer earned her Bachelor of Architecture degree at the University of Illinois, Chicago, and practiced architecture in Chicago before moving to Southern California. She received her M.F.A. from California Institute of the Arts in 1995, and has since lived in Los Angeles pursuing art and architecture projects. Ms. Meyer has been Director of the MAK Center for Art and Architecture, Los Angeles at the Schindler House since 2002. There she has co-curated the current exhibition The Gen(h)ome Project along with Open Source Architecture. She has also co-curated the exhibition Symmetry (2006) with Nizan Shaked and Showdown! at the Schindler House (2004) with Fritz Haegj. She has directed guest curator François Perrin for the exhibition and publication Yves Klein: Air Architecture (2004) and has organized Schindler’s Paradise: Architectural Resistance (2003), an architectural ideas competition, exhibition, and publication. The MAK Center for Art and Architecture is a contemporary, experimental, multidisciplinary center for art and architecture that operates from architect Rudolph M. Schindler’s own House and Studio (1922) in West Hollywood. It was established in 1994 as an alliance between the MAK Museum in Vienna and Friends of the Schindler House in West Hollywood. Designed and built by Rudolph Schindler in 1921–1922 as live/work space for two families, the Schindler House redefined notions of residential space and architecture. It is the mission of the MAK Center to continue the conversation initiated by Schindler by creating and supporting programming that explores the dynamic intersections of art, architecture, and culture. The MAK Center acts as a “think tank” for current issues in art and architecture by encouraging exploration and experimentation of artistic practices. It produces a year-round schedule of exhibitions, lectures, concerts, film screenings, performances, publications and new work commissions. It also hosts an international residency program for visiting artists and architects, who live and work in the Mackey Apartments (R. M. Schindler, 1939).

Beauty or Banality: Jakarta at Night

Lights in the city: Is it “still” beautiful or getting banal? Talks about the banality of the city’s visual culture  is not new. There are rules and regulation. But it is not clear what the visual cultural basis is. Buildings are often blocked by billboards. Do we want to see architecture or the lighted boxes?

In the past, mangrove trees were cut down just to make visual corridor for a billboard along the toll road to the airport. When protested, it was eventually taken down. Do we want to see billboards or mangrove trees along the toll road? The “wetland” system (of which mangrove trees are but parts of it) on the northern coast of Jakarta is actually unique, with some rare species of birds as well as the long-tail monkeys, considering there is little left of its kind along the northern coast of the whole Java.  

Look, every time we pass the major streets in Jakarta, more billboards are springing up. More buildings are becoming hidden behind it. Are we going to defend architecture or commercial graphics?

High-level pollution now covers the city not only in the air, but also visually, and there are concerns also about noise…Indeed, in the bigness of this metropolis: our senses are becoming dull!

Can houses and apartments be eco-friendly?

A landed house or  an apartment starts to facilitate green living from the process of its creation. It has to do a lot with energy use.
