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.
