Along the main theme of Promotion and Architecture, four architecture firms (BIG, Inaba, MAD, Mass Studies) proposed to stimulate the lobby of the Gyeonggido Museum of Modern Art with furniture that investigates a possible future master plan of Ansan City. As an architectural exercise of scales, the master plan activates the long and narrow lobby space with a model of Ansan City and its future structures. The 'model' can also be used as furniture by visitors, in an exploration almost Hollywood-esque in its multi-venue adventures and synergistic qualities.
The exhibition will be held 18 Dec. 2008 ~ 15 Feb. 2009.
