WXCA proposal for The Museum of Modern Art in Warsaw and TR Warszawa theatre.
WXCA in a final stage of international competition for The Museum of Modern Art in Warsaw and TR Warszawa theatre.
The proposed buildings appear as large-scale structure of expressive walls and vast roofings. It offers a unique landscape enabling contemporary art to appear in the city landscape.
Open, glazed spaces integrate a number of functions related to art, recreation, education and seamlessly connected with the environment. This allows unlimited extension of the museum and theatre program with open air - urban exhibitions, educational events, recreational spaces, avant-garde performances and debates on art and culture.
The TR Theatre and the Museum of Modern Art are contemporary cultural institutions, whose identity is built around the avant-garde, experimental approach to art, social dialogue and the mission of promoting contemporary art among society.
The aim of the project is to enable the appearance of art in the city, its integration into social life, inspiring debate, offering a meeting place for discussion and contemplation in the environment of a unique, multi-layer tectonic landscape.
The proposed architecture is designed - with its clarity and uniqueness – to create a framework for these activities, to invite, encourage and to inspire.
