Alvaro Rufiner tells us about Udaondo space at Casa FOA
On site-specific works at UDAONDO
Udaondo is a project that combines architecture, design and art as a unified whole. Our aim is to generate a sensitive experience with a daily impact. It is proven that living with beauty and art generates a better quality of life; these works as vibrant elements entice contemplation and enjoyment.
Both site-specific works, commissioned to Marta Minujín and Daniel Joglar, dialogue organically with Udaondo’s architecture.
Daniel Joglar's Olas [Waves], emerging from the towers’ foundation, force us to look up and imagine them as infinite. In front of the metallic and powerful Olas, we feel completed, as if facing the sea, an ancestral sense of eternity. From the transparent lobby we can see Los Meses del Año [Months of the Year], twelve longilinear sculptures by Marta Minujín, gathered in a circle in the central square. Like time, which is circular and relative.
Like Borges said, before time was coined in days, the eternal sea was already there and it existed; he also tells us that time is the substance of which I am made. That is why time and sea: time, as one of the most mysterious and attractive phenomena, just like the sea, attractive and infinite. What was always there and moves us, what is the same, and mutates, and surprises, like every moment that renews the inaugural promise.
