Nader Tehrani – Guardando attraverso il dittico

Guardando attraverso il dittico è un esercizio intellettuale, affidato al linguaggio fotografico, intorno ad una “veduta inversa di una struttura attiva in superficie”.

Guardando attraverso il dittico è un esercizio intellettuale, affidato al linguaggio fotografico, intorno ad una “veduta inversa di una struttura attiva in superficie”.

Come afferma Tehrani-NADAAA, “il formato acquisisce anche una certa latitudine attraverso l’associazione, diventa un’immagine orientata al paesaggio senza effettivamente estendere d’orizzonte di un’immagine nell’altra.”

L’edificio architettonico a cui si riferisce il dittico in cui l’arte e l’architettura sono in sintonia con la geometria e l’atmosfera è il pluripremiato DFALD - the University of Toronto’s Daniels Faculty of Architecture, Landscape and Design, realizzato da NADAAA, aperto al pubblico nell’autunno 2017.
