PLANE-SITE has released its latest video, as part of ECC's Time-Space-Existence exhibition during the 2018 Venice Architecture Biennale, about architect Daniel Libeskind, who will be unveiling a new architectural sculpture that explores the connections between climate, time, space and existence. Facing Gaia, as it is called, is inspired by ancient forms and will feature a convex mirrored center, bound to its steel structure with pioneering GRIP Metal™ technology.
In the below video produced by PLANE-SITE, Daniel Libeskind, appears featuring his body of work, discussing the power of drawing and his work on the memorial at Ground Zero and also, his philosophical understanding of time ideas that manifest in this new sculpture that will be presented during Venice Architecture Biennale.

“The Biennale is an important opportunity to explore meaning and metaphor in architectural space and form. This moment in time, the very idea of human existence is in question. What is the future of technology? Nature? Humanity? Facing Gaia focuses on the tension of these relationships while inviting open-ended questions and interaction,” said Daniel Libeskind.
The video has been commissioned by the GAA Foundation and funded by the ECC in the run-up to the Time-Space-Existence exhibition during the Venice Architecture Biennale, opening May 2018 in Palazzo Bembo and Palazzo Mora.
