SUMMARY:WMAIA Film Series!
DESCRIPTION:Tuesday March 21 | 6:30 PM | Zoom |1 LU requested\nSite Specific\nSite Specific is a special commission of ten short documentaries for Open House Dublin 2020. Dyehouse Films wonderfully reveal the personalities\, processes\, complexity\, creativity and transformative impact that surround the act of designed space. The protagonists: the architect\, the historian\, the user\, speak directly to the camera\, they speak directly to us. Site Specific crosses the city\, scales and building types from play parks\, social housing\, places of worship to a building not yet built. Taken individually\, each 5-minute video has something of the condensed power of a short story.\nEmail director@wmaia.org to register. \nTuesday April 4| 6:30 PM | Zoom |1 LU requested\nTwo short films about the work of Zaha Hadid\nZaha An Architectural Legacy\nOne year after Zaha Hadid died\, this film takes a look at her career\, and legacy\, through five stages which signal significant progressions in her work. The film begins with her drawings and paintings while at the Architectural Association\, then captures her first built project at Vitra\, moving on to the Stirling Prize-winning MAXXI\, which secured her place in the architectural canon\, and the London Aquatics Centre – a building which made her known to the public – and finishes with the Maths Gallery at the Science Museum\, completed just months after her death. Featuring interviews with those who knew her including long-time collaborator Patrik Schumacher\, architects Eva Jiricna and Nigel Coates\, urbanist Ricky Burdett\, AJ editor-in-chief Christine Murray and engineer Hanif Kara\, the film gives thoughtful insight into the impact Zaha had on the architectural profession.\nThe Queen of Curves\nThe Queen of curves\, that is the term used by the guardian to describe Zaha Hadid. Taking the world by storm\, Zaha Hadid or should I say Dame Zaha Hadid had become one of the most influential women in the world\, and one of the most recognizable architects. With bold ideas and a strong will\, she has designed some of the most iconic buildings in the world today. But what led to her becoming the queen of curves\, and how did this queen build her kingdom?\nEmail director@wmaia.org to register \nTuesday April 18 | 6:30 PM | Zoom |1 LU requested\nTado Ano: From Emptiness to Infinity\n“The essence of architecture is to open the hearts of the people\,” says Japanese minimalist master Tadao Ando\, “and to move them in such a way that they are glad to be on Earth.”Ando: From Emptiness to Infinity\, a 2013 documentary by German filmmaker Mathias Frick\, offers an exclusive behind-the-scenes look into the work and processes of Ando\, the only architect to have won the discipline’s four most prestigious prizes: the Pritzker\, Carlsberg\, Praemium Imperiale\, and Kyoto Prize.Ando’s unprecedented use of concrete\, wood\, water\, light\, space\, and natural forms creates a Zen-like connection between Japanese traditions and contemporary modernism. His creative use of natural light and his buildings’ ability to seamlessly evoke the contours of the landscape are his calling cards\, and give Ando’s award-winning homes\, churches\, museums\, apartment buildings and cultural spaces an open\, inviting quality that belies the structures’ minimalist construction.”To change the dwelling is to change the city and to reform society\,” Ando says\, noting that his deceptively simple buildings are meant to give people space to live and unfold in a contemplative manner. By taking viewers into the architect’s thought processes and motivations\, the documentary delves into the nature of how those changes have been woven throughout Ando’s four-decade-long career.\nEmail director@wmaia.org to register
