TEMPORARY LIBRARY (00_01)
A12 Fondazione Pistoletto. Exhibition Connecting culture. Biella, Italy 2003.
An industrial container is customized to contain a transportable library. The roof is removed, the interior is painted pink. A new raised level, built out of steel I-beams and metal grating is inserted inside the container and becomes accessible through a steel staircase. The library becomes a point of observation of the surroundings. Books and material concerning the artists and topics of the exhibitions in which the container is inserted are available to the public thus defining a space of rest and meditation.
