The Interior, Exhibition of One's Self: On Architecture, Collecting, and the Everyday

Research output: Contribution to conferenceAbstractScientific

Abstract

While Aldo and Hannie van Eyck (1919-1999/2018) have been mostly credited for their building designs, they also designed many exhibitions throughout their lives. Nonetheless, little is known that the Van Eycks inhabited an exhibition themselves, a concealed house in the Netherlands, where the Van Eycks played the role of the designer, the curator, the director, the visitor; inhabiting the space together with their artworks. This presentation uses this interior as a key to unpack the ways domesticity, exhibition design, global travels and art collecting are intersecting fields (intersecting "at home"), and how they sustained the Van Eycks' profound revision of Modern Architecture.
