Architecture Must Burn. Aaron Betsky & Erik Adigard. 2000

The scheme is part museum, part workshop, part shipyard and part archive - bringing together the different histories and functions of Greenwich Peninsula’s past into one facility. The project is a reaction to the changing weather conditions that affect the peninsula, river thames and London’s banks. Rising water levels and flash flood conditions are embraced with the creation of floating architectures, which are built on-site, then distributed around the building. Each of these floating architectures are vessels which operate as individual galleries, housing artefacts taken from the four museums of Greenwich, which would otherwise be threatened by the worsening floods. The tide is let in and used to change the building spatially, as well as being used to transport and rearrange the vessel galleries. Furthermore, the connection with the tide means the building is intrinsically linked with time through the effects of the lunar cycle, at home of modern time itself, Greenwich.

Ralf Brueck uses digital effects to manipulate domestic settings and architectural landscapes into science-fiction like scenarios that warp and confuse the senses. Producing a surreal and paranormal effect, the series’ ‘Dekonstruktion’ and ‘distortion’ are described by stretched buildings, interiors and elements found in nature, transforming commonplace imagery into imagined panoramas.
