On Thursday 3 September 2015 OASE 94, devoted to the early work of OMA/ Rem Koolhaas, will be presented at the auditorium of the Kunsthal in Rotterdam.
The editors of this issue, Christophe Van Gerrewey and Véronique Patteeuw, will have a conversation with Rem Koolhaas on the first decade of the Office for Metropolitan Architecture, 1972-1989. Doors open at 19:00, program starts at 19:30. Admission 10 or 27,5 euro (including a copy of OASE 94). Please reserve your tickets by e-mail: [email protected].
This thematic issue of OASE sheded new light on the architectural production of OMA during its first decade (1978-1989) – a mythical but at the same time not very well known period in the history of the world-famous office of Rem Koolhaas.
The proposals, plans and projects, both implemented and not, are subjected to critical appraisal and richly illustrated with fascinating, often unfamiliar visual material in this OASE. The projects include the residence of the Irish Prime Minister (1979), the design competition for Parc de la Villette in Paris (1982), Villa Palestra for the Milan Triennale (1986) and the designs for the City Hall in The Hague (1986) and the Swiss Hotel Furkablick (1988).
