Jörg Immendorff's Red Pavilions Transform Mies van der Rohe's Neue Nationalgalerie
Jörg Immendorff's exhibition at the Neue Nationalgalerie in Berlin, running from September 22, 2005 to January 22, 2006, tackles the challenging ground-floor space of Ludwig Mies van der Rohe's last Berlin building. Immendorff's scenography installs six bright red pavilions, a wall, and a pit, with sinuous red carpet paths, forcefully appropriating Mies's architecture. The exhibition is reviewed in artpress.
