Neuware -Ein Jahr nach der Eröffnung des neuen Bahnhofs bringt Art on the Underground eine neue Publikation über die Arbeit von Alexandre da Cunha an der Battersea Power Station in London heraus. Sunset, Sunrise, Sunset ist eine monumentale kinetische Skulptur für die U-Bahn-Station. Das Kunstwerk erstreckt sich über eine Länge von 95 und 60 Metern und besteht aus zwei Friesen, die sich über die gesamte Länge der Fahrkartenhalle gegenüberstehen. Inspiriert wurde das Kunstwerk vom ehemaligen Kontrollraum des Battersea-Kraftwerks und seinem System aus vertikalen Stäben, das die Erzeugung und Abgabe von Strom an die Stadt regelte. Durch die Kombination mit Anklängen an den täglichen Ablauf von Morgengrauen und Abenddämmerung verweist Sunset, Sunrise, Sunset auf Zyklen, Routinen, das Alltägliche und die Ewigkeit. Das vom Fraser Muggeridge Studio gestaltete Buch enthält Essays von der Kunsthistorikerin Dr. Lisa Blackmore, die sich mit der Praxis des Künstlers befasst, eine geografische und soziale Geschichte der Gegend von der Architektur- und Designautorin Gillian Darley, einen Essay von Eleanor Pinfield über die Auftragsvergabe für das Werk und einen kreativen Prosatext von der experimentellen Autorin Rebecca Watson. 120 pp. Englisch.…

- This publication documents major new additions to London’s public art scene by the artist Alexandre da Cunha
To mark one year from opening the new station, Art on the Underground launch a new publication on the work of Alexandre da Cunha at Battersea Power Station in London.
Sunset, Sunrise, Sunset is a monumental kinetic sculpture for the Underground station. Stretching 95 m and 60 m in length, the artwork incorporates two friezes that face each other along the length of the ticket hall. The artwork was inspired by the former control room at Battersea Power Station and its system of vertical bars that regulated the production and output of electricity into the city. Combining this with resonances of the daily flow of dawn to dusk, Sunset, Sunrise, Sunset refers to cycles, routine, the everyday and eternity. Designed by Fraser Muggeridge Studio, the book features essays from art historian Dr Lisa Blackmore exploring the artist’s practice, a geographical and social history of the local area from architecture and design writer Gillian Darley, an essay on commissioning the work by Eleanor Pinfield and a creative prose work from experimental writer Rebecca Watson.
