Make Materials Matter: Louisiana Channel Releases New Documentary on Danish Architect Sren Pihlmann
"Louisiana Channel, a web TV platform based at the Louisiana Museum of Modern Art in Denmark, is launching a new film titled Søren Pihlmann: Make Materials Matter. Over the course of 54 minutes, Marc-Christoph Wagner and Simon Weyhe offer a glimpse into the work and mind of the founding architect of Pihlmann Architects, presenting his vision of Danish architecture, the practice of architecture itself, and, in particular, his sensitivity to materials."
"The film provides a behind-the-scenes look at the process and thinking behind the Danish exhibition at this year's Venice Architecture Biennale. Led by Søren Pihlmann, the team used the opportunity to renovate and conduct material research on Denmark's permanent building in the Giardini, transforming it into a material laboratory and experimental construction site. The result is a process exhibition that highlights how rethinking and reusing existing structures and materials can address critical architectural challenges."
"With this quote by German journalist Ullrich Fichtner, Marc-Christoph Wagner and Simon Weyhe introduce a careful look at the processes behind the work of Danish architect Søren Pihlmann. The documentary begins with his speech at the Venice Biennale and leads viewers behind the scenes of the pavilion renovation, an experimental approach that serves as a built manifesto and a statement of the beliefs guiding the architects' practice."
