The Curtain
Type
The Pushkinsky Cinema Hall and the Pushkin Square are
enveloped in a context of historical heritage. The proximity and the
significance of the surroundings, the historical buildings, the prominent
position in the urban context and the iconic character of the Pushkinsky Hall,
constitutes the background that the proposal had to deal with.
Our proposal tries to explore, from a point of
vantage, this exposure and context. Our emulated curtain is a plane
superimposed on the Pushkinsky façade, a plane that creates a homogeneous continuity
between the façade planes of the square and at the same time maintains the
iconic character of the building, re-creating in the public space the symbolic
relations between the spectator and the stage.
The curtain
acts as a new frontier, generating a renovated perception of Puskin Square, it
is also a mechanism of theatrical allegory. The square represents the big
public foyer and the curtain the point from where the cinema fictional world
begins.
The proposed plane, The Curtain, is divided in three horizontal
sections, each section is composed by a series of fixed and rotating panels
adding a dynamic effect to the setup. When the panels are closed, the façade
can be a stage for multimedia and other light effects. These effects combined
with the rotating Corian panels can be used in the premieres to create a
dramatic puzzle effect. The panels can be individually rotated, providing
endless façade combinations
These panels
are to be made with Dupont Corian and mounted on a steel auto-supporting
structure. The existing volumes and surfaces are clearly revealed with the
removal of annexes, add-ons and other outside materials in the façade.
The project uses DuPont Corian on the fixed and
rotating panels and Alesta powder coatings on the steel structure.
This dichotomy
is more apparent when the building is approached from the side streets and
gradually The Curtain is revealed to the people passing by.
The simple
intervention and choice of materials contrasts with the historically charged
surroundings, changing the face of Pushkinsky Cinema Hall.
