...we are more interested in the direct physical and emotional impact, like the sound of music or the scent of a flower. We are not looking for meaning in our buildings. A building cannot be read like a book, it does not have any credits, subtitles or labels like pictures in a gallery. A building is a building. In that sense, we are absolutely anti-representational. The strength of our buildings is the immediate, visceral impact they have on a visitor. For us that is all that is important in architecture.

Herzog & de Meuron with Ai Weiwei present Hansel and Gretel at Park Avenue Armory, NYC

Architects Jacques Herzog and Pierre de Meuron in collaboration with artist/activist Ai Weiwei have revealed a new interactive art installation titled, Hansel and Gretel. Taking place in the massive, dark and cavernous Drill Hall of the Park Avenue Armory in NYC, visitors are surrounded by a floating mass of surveillance drones that sense and capture their movements and project the image upon the floor and broadcasted it on the internet for anyone to see. 

The experience forces the privileged western citizenry of New York City to examine their expectations for privacy by forcing the confrontation with the machinery that is tactically by the military to address conflicts across the globe. While connected in a complex network, the drones treat all subjects equally with the same inhumanity. This disturbing revelation is similar to the disquiet that Hansel and Gretel are supposed to experience when they discover that the once familiar and safe space of the forest suddenly is transformed into something foreign and dangerous. 

The exhibition, Hansel and Gretel, is showing at Park Avenue Armory in NYC until August 6th, 2017.
