For this reason, as well as offering adequate space and infrastructure, it must make a strong, clearly recognizable architectural statement.

This book accompanies an exhibit at gta exhibitions of ETH Zurich that focuses on artworks featuring carefully designed stages—a deliberate blurring of the border between art, architecture, and performance. Creating static, yet theatrical, tableaux in which artists can highlight the interplay between the disciplines of art and architecture, the stages at the same time represent a wide range of creative approaches to art and art making, and they also offer reflections on sources of artistic inspiration, including books and films.

Par un heureux concours de circonstances et alors que l’architecture des expositions nationales suisses avait été polarisée jusque-là entre traditionalisme et prouesses technologiques, l’Expo 64 a échappé à l’air de son temps pour déployer une créativité joyeuse. Collectés par les Acm depuis 1994, dessins originaux, plans d’ingénieurs et d’architectes, photographies de maquettes et de terrain permettent de montrer comment cette exposition nationale, dont la gestation se déroule en pleine guerre froide, a réussi à percer.
