Description
Experimental and radical, material and gestural are adjectives that could define the suggestive projects of the studio led by Anne Holtrop (Netherlands, 1977). On the border between art and architecture, his work avoids typological reference and is built from unexpected elements: topography, trail layouts, material molds, textures extracted from everyday objects, or traces of natural processes that become the starting point for architectural definition. AV Monographs presents this intuitive practice through a selection of works and projects – with an introduction by Adrian Lahoud –, which take stock too of the life course of their author: from the beginnings at his home country to the move to the Persian Gulf.
