Synopsis
Von 1993 bis 1998 erbaute der italienische Architekt Renzo Piano (*1937) in Nouméa (Neukaledonien) ein neues Kulturzentrum. Die lokale Tradition des Holz-Rundhauses wird aufgenommen und kÃ1/4hn weitergedacht. Entstanden ist eine kongeniale Verschmelzung von archaisch-pazifischer und abendländisch-moderner Baukultur. Die meisterhafte Regie von Piano im Umgang mit den Mega-Holzstrukturen bringt eine klare Geometrie in lebendig-spannungsvollen Kontrast zur blÃ1/4henden Umgebung der Lagunenlandschaft. Werner Blaser dokumentiert in seinen Fotografien - reproduziert in klassischer Duplextechnik - die offensichtlichen ebenso wie die versteckten Qualitäten dieses Bauwerkes auf eindrucksvolle Weise.

From 1993-1998 Italian architect Renzo Piano built a new cultural centre in Noumea, New Caledonia to commemorate the forthcoming independence of the Pacific Island. Beginning with a round wooden building, a traditional feature of Kanak culture, Piano went on to develop and create a structure which blends the memory of Melanesian culture with modern techniques from the West in a visually stunning way. Piano's wooden shell structures and state-of-the-art technology is a dramatic contrast to the blossoming island landscape. With his expressive duotone photographs, Werner Blaser captures the essence of this extraordinary building from outside and from within.

- 1***m (121)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseThis is Jameson (aka Jamo) who “helped” me get the sunglasses for Dog-Father’s Day! I got matching pairs for my fiancé and me. They are nice quality and the Jameson green looks great! Shipping was fast with good packaging, so the sunglasses arrived with no flaws or issues from shipping carriers, who often mishandle packages in my area and crush too many things (but not these glasses!!). The seller is easy to communicate with if you have any questions.SUNGLASSES JAMESON IRISH WHISKEY DARK GREEN UV 400 PROTECTION (#364813024897)
