The first and only monograph on the extraordinary work of
multidisciplinary and experiential Dutch artist duo DRIFT DRIFT was
established in Amsterdam in 2007 by Lonneke Gordijn and Ralph
Nauta. In their installations and interactive sculptures,
environmental issues, human nature, and technology intersect in an
intriguing way. Over the course of more than a decade, DRIFT's
immersive, encompassing, and often site-specific projects have been
exhibited all over the world, offering a meditative and poetic
experience and addressing themes such as the relationship between
the individual and the collective and the impact of technology in
our society. This is the first book to explore their extraordinary
world in depth.
This book, Social Infrastructure: New York, one of a series that
documents the Bass Fellowship at the Yale School of Architecture
studio led by real estate developer Douglas Durst of the Durst
Organization, a leading New York firm known for spearheading
sustainable high-rise developments, and architect Bjarke Ingels,
founder of Copenhagen- and New York-based Bjarke Ingels Group.
Their students explored potential synergies between public and
private programs in the design of inhabited bridges crossing major
waterways in metropolitan New York. The group traveled to Denmark,
Sweden, and Norway to research developments that successfully
integrated the needs of numerous stake-holders. The featured
projects from the studio demonstrate a diverse range of approaches
for combining residential, cultural, and commercial activities on
complex and dense infrastructural sites in imaginative and
productive ways.
