在过去三年里,老庄园公园图书馆(OldManor Park Library)-伦敦纽汉区(Newham Borough)上市的二级图书馆-将于本月重新开放,作为一个多方面的公共艺术、商业和社区空间。
这座气势恢宏的卡内基建筑在创世纪艺术(Create And Bow Arts)的推动下,由建筑师尼古拉斯·洛博·布伦南(Nicholas Lobo Brennan)(Gruppe创始人之一)和阿斯特丽德·史密森(Astrid Smitham)共同开发。这两位建筑师的总部都在伦敦和苏黎世,由伦敦市长高街基金(City of London‘
Lobo Brennan和史密瑟姆保持建筑的独特和宏伟的外观,创造了一个可定制的内部透明墙与建筑的花期特征并列,暴露和恢复到昔日的辉煌。
除了艺术家工作室和会议室外,图书馆还将容纳由露丝·比尔(Ruth Beale)和艾米·费内克(Amy Fineck)领导的“兔子路研究所”(Rabbit Road Institute)。新空间背后的精神灵感来自于维多利亚时代中期自由图书馆运动的研究,该运动致力于改善社区教育,引导到比尔和费内克在自我教育、技能共享和“城市遗产建筑的重新构想”方面的兴趣。
这是一个受欢迎的发展,在一个国际化的城市里,高度的贫困统计水平与2012年奥运会的现代化设施并驾齐驱(大部分奥林匹克公园位于纽哈姆),也是对现有社区艺术活动的一个重要补充,其中包括在斯特拉特福颇受人喜爱的罗塞塔艺术中心,以及伦敦砖块盒在坎宁镇举办的活动。
Newham市长罗宾·威尔士爵士(Sir Robin威尔士)说,这一奇妙的举措不仅会让这座二级建筑重新焕发生机,还会把它变成一个创新的、充满活力的文化空间,供当地社区使用和享用。
在这个时代,“公共再生”往往等同于粗制滥造的绅士化和大型住宅项目,谁会反对呢?

The ethos behind the new space was inspired by research conducted by the duo on the mid-Victorian Free Library Movement, which strove for the improvement of community education, channelled here into Beale and Feneck's interests in self-education, skill sharing and 'the reimagining of a municipal heritage building'
