Nicolas Grospierre likes to probe the relationship between architecture and photography by challenging the accustomed norms of 2 and 3-dimensionality and the parameters of different media. With his camera he investigates the concept of a building as well as the architectural process. For this exhibition Grospierre has chosen the Aviation Museum in Cracow as his subject and created a new body of work, including a series of large paper planes made from his photographs, which act as a playful homage to the architect’s design.
Phase 2, ARUP, 8 Fitzroy Street, London, W1T 4BJ, UK
Opening: March 30, 2011 at 6.30 PM. Installation on show until July 1.

ABOUT THE EXHIBITION
On view from March 3 through April 2, 2011, the new exhibition One Thousand Doors, No Exit features two projects by Warsaw-based artist Nicolas Grospierre, TATTARRATTAT (2010) and Hydroklinika (2004). The subjects could not be less similar: a 14th century Venetian palazzo and an abandoned Soviet-era spa treatment complex in Lithuania. Taken together, however, these projects show Grospierre’s persistent interest in the tension between perception and truth in architecture, as well as architecture’s capacity to stand as an artifact of ideology.
The Graham’s presentation of TATTARRATTAT is made possible in part by the Signum Foundation.
Nicolas Grospierre will be giving a lecture entitled Lost in Architecture in the National Gallery of Art, Vilnius, as part of the series of lectures Show off: Architecture on display, on January 14, 2010 at 8 PM. The series of lectures is organised by the Architecture [discussion] Fund of Vilnius, Lithuania.
